but how many 100 watt or 200 watt or 300 watt miners are running

avalon on medium speed is 100 watts.

I will run my two until they break. but that is about 210 watts and 7th

even if a million do it it is
7,000,000 th or
7,000.      ph or
7.            eh

the interesting thing is will we get the 100 million people level doing this.

if we do it could really help btc down the road.

stopped mining gpu/fpga coins when eth went pos. sold that shit for corn. i do miss the hum haha.

but i did i mined btc on gpu/fpga in 2011/2012 and even continued at a slight loss.  guess what, those btc coins i mined at a slight loss are where probably 60 percent of my stack today came from. because i kept mining. wasnt worrying about the money, btc was cool thats all i needed.

of course i did folding at home which where multi gpu rigs just for funziesi  for free so i was used to power bills and such.

so i said all that to say this: but i still have a dedicated 20amp outlet that i can run derated at what 16 amps. and as long as they are somewhat quiet i might still give a go.

i think many small miners that can be used in basements and garages etc are the way to go.



 

commercial mining is really hard.

It also makes coins very cashable to maintain or expand mine which means you could do what I did go for four used s-9 burning

5.2 kwatts to over 260kwatts of gear. that will need to be upgraded yet again. too hard and while we made a profit. buy and hodl would have crushed the profit i made
