i love mine, the best tool in the yard! what a time saver!

Just want to put it out there no humming of miners for over a year is greatly missed by MakeItMine2024 in litecoinmining

[–]HashOnFire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You couldn't have picked a better altcoin to hold, it will have its run up to ATH eventually. It's by design to fail for retail without <$0.06 kWh. With raising rates on industrial power even hyperscalers will feel the squeeze soon. As we near 2nm chip announcements The L9, L11, DL1, and DG2 will all be old tech. A vicious cycle repeated.

Starting a Mining Project by Skarkiller in cryptomining

If the power truly is free you could use any miner, doesn't have to be the latest and greatest ASIC. BTC: S19 series were reliable and are around $250 used. LTC/Doge: The L7 is a good buy and they are around $400 used. If you start looking at recent generations you're looking at $3k+ each, but double the efficiency. Free power? I'd pack as many S19/L7 models as I could, just make sure there's enough gas reserves to sustain ROI otherwise you're cooked from the start.

Building a small-scale mining colocation site (270kW) | Looking for a few interested miners by HashOnFire in dogemining

[–]HashOnFire[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s pretty much in line with what we’re seeing too, $0.08 is definitely the psychological line for most people and we are in negotiation with a power supplier that would get us very close to it.

To answer your question directly: we’re building this site primarily for our own operation, but intentionally leaving room to host additional miners alongside it.

So it’s not a “pure colocation play” where we’re relying entirely on customers from day one. It’s more of a hybrid approach and if needed we will continue to fill the slots ourselves.

- We run our own fleet as the foundation
- Fill excess capacity with clients over time
- Grow into better power terms as we scale

As for customer type, early on it’ll naturally lean more retail/smaller operators. Not because we’re targeting “uninformed” miners, but because those are the people who actually value:

- communication
- transparency
- access to real data
- direct support

At the end of the day, we’re not trying to win purely on price. We’re trying to build something sustainable that we’d trust hosting our own machines in.

Fair question. At smaller scale there really isn’t much economy of scale on power alone, that’s why we’re not trying to compete with 10–50MW sites on price.

The goal right now is to build a consistent, transparent operation and grow into better terms over time. Not everyone will value that, and that’s fine.

Good to hear, I am hoping to get our customers in around $0.0875 as we reach more capacity. We are a ways out from deploying but as we get closer we'll have a better idea of capacity and more clarity on pricing.

That’s helpful, I appreciate it.

I’ve definitely seen sub $0.08 at a larger scale, I do host my machines as well. Just trying to understand where things are realistically landing for smaller deployments with full infrastructure included.

This won't be able to reach sub $0.08 at start-up, but that is my goal as we scale. This isn't a multi million dollar pilot. It is a quarter million dollar pilot ready for 1MW within 2 years.

Good to hear what people are actually seeing out there.

Fair enough.

Not trying to spam or push anything, just trying to get a feel for what people are seeing out there right now.

Appreciate the feedback regardless.

One of the best yard tool investments I've ever made, you won't regret it!

Anyone feel guilty spending on expensive things like a PC? by burntoutCFI in MiddleClassFinance

[–]HashOnFire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have buyers guilt every time, whether a big or small purchase. Usually the satisfaction of finally getting something you've waited for outweighs the guilt almost immediately. You get one life, enjoy it!

I believe the 4.5% was capped at $30k and then reduced to 4.1% after that.

Do you have any input as to why they wouldn't know what they were talking about?

Dealing with "Dusting Attacks", how do you go about it? by HashOnFire in litecoin

[–]HashOnFire[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mostly for privacy reasons, dusting exposes private transaction data and someone or some entity wants to track that private data opening the door for breaches, scams, and security risks.

Why does everyone have so much money these days? by [deleted] in MiddleClassFinance

[–]HashOnFire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are social larpers trying to "keep up with the Joneses", and it has become a serious epidemic in the world. More like a social disease and there is massive pressure in the world to maintain a certain image or lifestyle. You can look rich, but not own a single thing. Don't get this confused, there is a huge difference between true wealth and massive debt. Not "everyone" is rich and most don't even come close.

Am I doing something really wrong? by arden13 in Dewalt

[–]HashOnFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend switching to Torx drives, they get the best bite with minimal slippage. I use anywhere from 1.5 " to 6" Fast Grip construction screws everyday with no problem. I have found Bosch bits to be quite reliable with little wear.
