We have seen goldshell announce their little 180 watt pocket rocket that’s supposed to make $95 a day. We all know the big boys will be coming to town on this one. I’m going to link the block reward url here and write what I think could be released, none of this is factual, just my opinion and please share your opinions as it will help us all get a more informed opinion. Alephium Block Rewards. An in-depth analysis of the Block… | by Alephium | Medium
Knowing Bitmain likes to kick everyone to the curb, I’m going to assume their efficiency is going to be 50% better and run possibly between 3500-3600 watts, which would put the miner between 10-11T, which would put it roughly $3500 USD per day, but would take 40 miners at that scale to double the network hashrate lol.
What is interesting though, if I am understanding it correctly, is that the block rewards will cut in half by 2/3 when the network reaches 1 EX. this means with the assumptions above, it would take at least 100,000 miners of a 10T scale for the reward reductions to start. There is a time based reward reduction, and also a reward increase and reduction based on network hashrate, something I dont think I fully understand.
This also means at current prices, 5000 miners of that scale online would bring the rewards to $28 per day if I added it right.
please feel free to add anything/your thoughts
