And when I checked your numbers, it looks like you're only factoring the electricity costs, and nothing for depreciation.
It`s the right way calculation. All my equipment costs had been calculated until revenues exceeded costs. Now there is now depreciation, it was calculated before.
Even if GPU-ASIC - break down - it doesn`t make a problem. it worked hard and paid off itself.

It would only be the right way if the cards were worth nothing.   However I suspect they are worth something, and the more you use them and the longer you wait, they are worth less and less.

If you are planning to sell GPUs sometime - it may be so. But your equipment had a fixed price. At one moment, you get profit exceeding all your spending. In this moment, equipment costs nothing for you. Depreciation may be useful just for taxes. In this way you may count it. But also depreciation with such type of equipment is about 3-5 years as usial and really small percent in the calculation.
