You're still getting paid for every, single, hash here regardless of ramp up. If anything it's just more BTC per block as we sip some on some good shit. Personally as a hobby miner I'll be able to soak one more month of all four of my units online after that I'll be fine with one s9 LPM and some newpacs running. My gpu's will go offline before those.
Thanks for the info. My S9i LPM miners are running at 14T and 1148 watts. I can hang out here and sip some LaPhroaig and wait for the block.
