Roughly this farm makes $10k per month. 110e9 (hash/sec) * 3600 (sec/hour) * 730 (hour/month) / (2^32 * 1733208 (current difficulty factor)) * 50 (coins/block)

Roughly this farm makes $10k per month.
110e9 (hash/sec) * 3600 (sec/hour) * 730 (hour/month) / (2^32 * 1733208 (current difficulty factor)) * 50 (coins/block) * 5.1 (current exchange rate: usd/coin) = $9903 per month
Minus about $730/month in electricity for the 10kW it consumes, assuming an average worldwide rate of $0.10/kWh.

- Retric 14y agoSo, 9k per month.
- peteretep 14y agoI think I'm right to say this will drop off as the potential number of Bitcoin dwindles (although I don't know the mechanics)... I wonder how long until this thing pays for itself, assuming Bitcoin value stays roughly constant
