an energy cost of $0.20 KW/h?

Damn, I'd kill for that energy cost, that's double of the cost here in my country. I guess there's a reason why we need to consider the reopening of the nuclear energy in the country because close to free energy is the best kind of energy, I can only imagine the cost when that's finally a thing in my country.

I remember the TV series 'Young Sheldon' which was a continuation of 'Big Bang Theory' when 6 year old Sheldon was looking for components for a nuclear reactor and federal agents came to him. My country has inexpensive electricity, but if you use it for mining, you face heavy fines.

It probably depends on where you live, I don't think it's illegal to mine bitcoin in the US and the Philippines so I don't believe it will be a problem, maybe if you're stealing power and not paying the electrical companies then you're in for a trouble and also it's not a nuclear hazard or biohazard to set up a mining rig so I don't think that they'll be able to slap you with a fine, maybe a tax will be imposed on you and a ton of paperwork would be on your work but a heavy fine is unlikely.
