Can Bitcoin mining be turned on and off and then picked back up where I left off when turned back on?
Basically, I bought a house with PV solar that generates an extra 20+ kWh a day more than I use. I’m curious if I could mine at a rate that only uses about 20kWh a day, or have it so I shut it off after about 20kWh and then it picks up where it leaves off? Or I could run it for a few weeks and then take a few weeks off. I have net metering and if I don’t use my excess the power company uses it for free. Power in my area is like 40 cents a kWh so I’d rather not go over what I generate.
Would mining make any sense?
Thanks in advance for any guidance on this.
