Do you mean 'income' when you are saying revenue?
yes
Electricity cost TerraMiner IV = $5.28 per day at 2.2kW at $0.10/kWh
Mining Income TerraMiner IV = $35.66 with 1.6TH
$5.28/$35.66 = 14.8% < 20%, sacrifice 5% still.
I am still not following. Nobody is charging 20% from your mining income and nobody is charging 5%.
Instead of the TerraMiner IV example (around 1.6TH) I should have used the real DTM numbers:
electricity cost for 1.66TH at DTM = $0.6/day ($18/month)
20% fee on the electricity cost for operating the cluster = $0.12/day
why a person will rent the capacity by sacrificing 20% revenues?
I certainly hope that 30 * $0.12 = $3.6/month is far away from 20% mining income on 1.66TH for a while.
If it isn't then even DTM's efficient system won't help (and certainly not paying MUCH MORE for a data center or home mining where you'd have to fork out the annual mining income or more just for the shipping cost).
