So I've got a question for you guys.

I'm currently drawing up a business plan for an absurd amount of miners. I might aim for a state in the US with super cheap electric (looking at you Washington), supplemented with either one VERY large wind turbine (1MWh, which i believe is about a million dollars, at least it was when i was working in solar in 2010)

Would the pool be open to having a silly amount of hash rate added to it, or is it kind of in a sweet spot right now where say 50-70PH would hurt the pools share to solve ratio?

I've got 220ish TH with the pool right now running a hosted mining business for my buddies, but i've worked in IT for going on 15 years now. Infrastructure, coding, ERP, you name it I've done it. Jack of all trades, master of none, except maybe crypto. I've carried many job titles.

I know i can handle this from pretty much every aspect. I would obviously bring in an electrician and someone to make me really tidy cable runs for ethernet, but the rest I'd do with me and a few other buddies, hopefully over a weekend.

The boss of the company I work for has run a vertical specific Microsoft Dynamics NAV (navision before that, and even something before that) VAR for 25 years. He's a multi-millionaire, and I'm going to present a really clean business plan that covers every risk i can possibly think of. Even a $1000 or less bitcoin. It gets below that we're all screwed anyways, unless you've been HODLing since 2010. I dont even want to talk about the amount of BTC i mined back in those days and sold for pennies on the dollar. Who would have thunk that a drug market on the dark web  could jump start the revolution we're in now. I should have known though. Any product that facilitates drugs or porn always wins.

He's expressed interest in starting something with me, I just don't think he knows what kind of plan I'm going to hit him with.

TL;DR There's a 30-40% chance I'll be commanding 50+PH pretty soon. Show of hands of people who would want that on Kano and who would not. I'm a strong believer in shared luck, and my initial math for pooled mining on this pool (february luck levels included) looks positive so far.

Thanks Everyone! If you want to PM me your thoughts rather than fill up page after page of "Fuck you's" or "Fuck Yeah's!" I'm sure Kano would appreciate that.

I'm also lookin at you too Kano..

EDIT: Also: any vendors that want to keep me from dealing with Shitmain, PM me.
