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.
| Iceriver ALEO AE0 50Mh | Metric | IceRiver KS3L |
|---|---|---|
| $280 | Upfront cost (MSRP) | $7,500 |
| -$0.24 | Daily net profit | -$7.50 |
| -$368 | Net after 1 year | -$10,238 |
| -$455 | Net after 2 years | -$12,975 |
| -$543 | Net after 3 years | -$15,713 |
| 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.
