Profitability Comparison
iBeLink BM-N3
iBeLink BM-S1 Max
Based on BTC price of $73,512 and current network difficulty as of May 30, 2026. Actual results vary.
Verdict
Run the numbers across every spec and the iBeLink BM-N3 edges it: 3 of 4 factors go its way (efficacité, hashrate, rapport qualité-prix). Its biggest concrete edge: 108% more hashrate (25.0 vs 12.0 TH/s). That said, the iBeLink BM-S1 Max isn't beaten everywhere — it still wins consommation électrique. Review the detailed specs and profitability calculations above to determine which miner best fits your specific setup.
Spec Deltas
Stripped to the numbers, this is how far apart the iBeLink BM-N3 and iBeLink BM-S1 Max sit on each measurable spec:
- iBeLink BM-N3 108% more hashrate (25.0 vs 12.0 TH/s)
- iBeLink BM-S1 Max 5% better power draw (3,300 vs 3,150 W)
- iBeLink BM-N3 50% better efficacité (132 vs 263 J/TH)
- iBeLink BM-N3 5% more heat output (11,260 vs 10,748 BTU/hr)
Cost & ROI Over Time
Hardware cost is only half the story — here is how each miner's upfront price plays out against cumulative profit at a $0.10/kWh rate.
| iBeLink BM-N3 | Metric | iBeLink BM-S1 Max |
|---|---|---|
| $980 | Upfront cost (MSRP) | $899 |
| -$7.09 | Daily net profit | -$7.16 |
| -$3,567 | Net after 1 year | -$3,513 |
| -$6,155 | Net after 2 years | -$6,126 |
| -$8,742 | Net after 3 years | -$8,740 |
| Does not pay back at current rates (negative daily profit) | Payback period | Does not pay back at current rates (negative daily profit) |
Projections assume continuous operation, a flat $0.10/kWh rate, and no hardware degradation, pool fees, or BTC price change. Real-world ROI varies.
