My point is that if the home user is not paying the tax on mined coins, they are not getting (any mined coins and thus not) a discount on their monthly electric bill, thus what incentive do they have to keep the miner running always?
Warm water or air (or toast, possibly)
I thought these were going to be sold very cheaply nearly free since the electricity cost is the major cost.
Otherwise what incentive do I have to buy one.
Thus when it stops working, I don't have a strong incentive to hassle with it. I might get tired of the tsuris and just want a heater that works.
My point is that a discount on the space heater is not very compelling. A discount on the ongoing electric bill more so, but then taxes have to be dealt with.
