ASIC Miner ROI & Payback Calculator: When Does a Bitcoin Miner Pay for Itself? (CAD)
Daily profit, break-even electricity rate and payback period for any Bitcoin ASIC miner, from the live hashprice.
Quick answer
At the current fee-inclusive hashprice (~$0.045 CAD per TH/day), a 200 TH/s, 3,500 W miner bought for $5,000 CAD earns about $8.97/day in revenue, and after roughly $6.03/day in electricity at Quebec residential rates nets near $2.94/day — a payback of about 1,700 days (~55.9 months). Payback is dominated by your electricity rate and the hashprice, both of which move; this is a snapshot, not a guarantee.
Two levers decide ROI: efficiency (J/TH sets your break-even power price) and the price you pay for the box. Plug in your real numbers below. Not financial advice.
Method: daily revenue = hashrate × hashprice; daily power cost = (W÷1000) × 24 × rate; daily profit = revenue − power; payback = miner price ÷ daily profit; break-even rate = the electricity price where profit hits zero. Revenue defaults to D-Central's live fee-inclusive hashprice (as of 2026-06-19); it excludes pool fees, hardware degradation, difficulty drift and resale value. Estimates only — not financial advice.
