Are you guys going to hold on to your machines or start selling?  Turn off for now and wait it out?

It's only unprofitable because of electricity costs. So, eliminate your electric costs and go solar. After you break even, it's all profit from there!

Solar is okay-ish but it takes a lot of panels and a lot of batteries to provide for a good-sized GPU mining operation.  I'm still looking for an ideal power production solution.  Maybe there would be some incorporation of hydr, solar, wind, etc in order to produce say 10K watts continuous or more of power independently and off the grid.  Let me know when the price for installation of something like that gets down to about $1 per watt continuous (i.e. $10K for 10Kwatts continuous power)

Maybe by the year 2050?

Got me thinking cause power is valuable with or without mining...guess like 3 or 4 years break even...self install and maintain is no problem

One thing we got in Texas is good sun.
