Top ASIC miner for $0.20 per kWh?

Hey fellow miners, I'm curious about something. With energy prices sitting at $0.20 per kWh, which ASIC miner would you recommend as the best option?

$0.2 per kw/h is expensive my friend   You can start your researches here, I entered 0.2 usd per kw/h, you just need to choose your algo and see the results

You shouldn’t be mining with that electricity cost. Either build a solar setup (it still may not be cheaper) or just invest in crypto instead. People don’t sell their miners for a good price when it is profitable to mine anyway. Mining is a fool’s game unless your electricity is nearly free.

You are funny. If someone is in a country with cheap electricity, you will still tell the person to buy solar. Solar is not cheap at all and its maintenance can be costly. Cheap public electricity would be better.

You are probably on a low protein diet. The OP pays $0.20 KW/h. In which part of the world this is considered cheap? I already pointed out solar may not be cheaper also.

It has not gotten up to this. People disagree to agree and some people will disagree to disagree. You can correct people without any abusive word. I can understand what you mean. That $0.2 per Kilowatt hour is costly. You are not wrong about that. In my country, the electricity cost in my area is $0.05 Kilowatt hour. That is how electricity is costly in developed countries. I think he will come from United States because that electricity consumption charges is similar to US electricity electricity charges.

OP is from EU, which has a lot of different prices depending of the country. In France for example they are between 0,12-0,16 usd per kw/h, some people pay even more in UK, Belgium, Netherlands, Portugal, Germany... During the same time in Eastern Europe I pay less than 0,03. Westerns EU countries are quite unlucky if we talk about electricity prices.

It's true, the western part of Europe is very exposed to high values. So it becomes complicated to be able to collaborate in this activity. On an amateur basis.  So I would ask for a machine - ignoring the cost of the equipment - that would be a viable mini-lever for this energy cost.

Have you considered GPU mining? ASICs get outdated very fast and when they do, they don't have much resale value. There will be always some demand for the GPU's on the other hand. Looks like RTX4090 is the hottest shit out there nowadays. You can find it on amazon for around ~$2k. (I found one Zotac that sells for $1768 but only 1 left in stock)  Get 6 of those monsters and it will make a good rig. https://minerstat.com/hardware/nvidia-rtx-4090 2.81x6= You will be making ~$16.8/day, you can round that to $15 probably. $12000/15 = You will ROI in 2.2 years if you keep them on day and night according to today's data. Considering that the total hasrate will go up during that time, the realistic number would be 4 to 5 years for your ROI. After 5 years, when you get your ROI, you can still use them for gaming  I bet they will be enough to run the latest most GPU hungry game of that year.

With such electricity prices, you can only engage in click mining: ice mining, notcoin mining https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5482765.0 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5481064.0 NEAR Wallet on Telegram | Claim $HOT Token https://medium.com/@NewAirdropEN/near-wallet-on-telegram-claim-hot-token-b5b872f86cd3 or buy a mini ASIC for lottery mining. In all options, there is a big risk of losing time and money. Electricity in mining is the main expense, and when the main expense is huge, then you will lose.

Well, maybe that's what I'm going to do. Not because of the money that can be made - which is unlikely to be made at all. But, because of the fun of the project and the involvement that can be had.

I've got my 10 Helium (HNT) miners still running, mining IOT because they use nearly no power.  They are not supposed to all be at one location, but I don't care, I'm owed a lot for what it cost me to buy those things at premium prices in '21-'22.  I mine IOT and convert it to HNT and send it to my crypto exchange account. I've used the calculators and tried all sorts of ways, but there's just no good way to have a profitable mining farm unless you can get free power or at least not have your name on the power bill.  I had GPU farms in the past but not for several years now.  I can make more money just buying low and selling high in alt coins. So I suggest that you forget mining and just buy/sell and invest your way to PROFITS.

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.

I've no experience, but you can visit https://www.asicminervalue.com/ and set electricity rate to $0.20 kW/h to see which ASIC profitable. But at time of writing this post, only non SHA-256 ASIC offer some profitability. But the profit depends on price of altcoin which use algorithm supported by the ASIC and you still need to calculate ROI by yourself.

That is very correct unless on free electricity, it's the hardest adventure or risk to engage on, the profit gain when electricity is expensive is equal to zero unless in some cases where it varies that you succeed in lesser option.

What you need to care about is the algorithm, which means what kind of coins can be mined

I have friends in the Philippines, it’s hot there and the temperature is 28-30 degrees Celsius all the time. With the cost of electricity being 22-25 cents, it is impossible to find profitable ASICs, although the high electricity consumption there does not raise suspicions if the house has air conditioners.

The best ASIC miner for those with an energy cost of $0.20 per kWh is the Bitmain Antminer S19 Pro. It offers a high hash rate of 110 TH/s and an efficient power consumption of 3250W, making it one of the most profitable options despite higher electrici. How much space is available for ASIC placement (eg, are there temperature or ventilation limitations)?
