How long to mine 1 BTC

Question. How long would it take to mine 1 BTC with 3 S19XP 140Th/s or 4 of them. (*Assume, B/E on electrical cost and not concerned with B/E on the miners). Also, assume no OC/UC.

I understand it’s ludicrous to not consider the costs and time to B/E. But, what I’m trying to figure is whether it makes sense to buy 1 BTC, or begin mining BTC (regardless, of price fluctuations).

If 420Th/s to 560Th/s can earn 1 BTC at the present hashrate, and the value of BTC goes down, there’s the chance the hashrate would also decrease. I would be holding 1 BTC for the longterm. OR, I would be mining the whole time, but starting at zero BTC.

Thoughts?

if you mine solo, it could take 30 secs or it could take month if ever.
if you mine using a pool, you will get daily payouts for the work the miners did.
below is the pool i use, it supports merged mining which rewards you with other coins on top of the BTC you mine.

If you keep everything mined and pay out of pocket for expenses, 4 XPs will take roughly 500 days on antpool to mine 1BTC.
