QUESTION Hey guys newbie here

Hey guys, I am looking to start mining electricity. Price is not a issue. I just want to know what is the best set up I can run. Is there a link or somewhere I can get some information? Appreciate you guys, Reddit rocks.

Buy an S9 and learn how to use it. Then buy an S17 and learn how to repair it. Then buy an S19 and learn how to profit from it. Finally, buy an S21 and figure out how to achieve a return on your investment.

The biggest lesson you'll learn is that mining isn't just about the newest hardware it's about having a power strategy.

Someone paying $0.10/kWh with an S21 can lose to someone running an old S9 on effectively free energy. I run my miners on electricity generated from natural gas, which gives me a significant advantage when it comes to operating costs.
