Compare gross mining revenue with electricity costs using your own hashprice and hardware figures. All amounts use one quote currency.
How the calculation works
Daily gross = TH/s ÷ 1000 × hashprice × uptime. Electricity = watts ÷ 1000 × 24 × electricity price × uptime. Net = gross × (1 - pool fee) - electricity. Simple payback = hardware cost ÷ positive daily net.
Worked example
Example: 100 TH/s at 50 per PH/s/day produces 5 gross per day. At 3,000 watts and 0.05 per kWh, electricity costs 3.60. A 2% pool fee leaves 1.30 operating profit per day.
How to use the result
Use gross hashprice before pool fees. Enter measured running power where possible. Uptime scales both revenue and running power in this model.
Simple payback divides the hardware cost by unchanged daily operating profit. When profit is zero or negative, there is no payback at those inputs.
What this result leaves out
- Hashprice is user-entered; no hardware earnings or current network data is fetched.
- Cooling, repairs, downtime power, taxes, financing and future difficulty or price changes are excluded.
