Cost & ROI Over Time
A miner pays for itself in profit, not specs. These projections track upfront cost against one, two and three years of net earnings at $0.10/kWh.
| Bitmain Antminer E11 (9.5Gh) | Metric | iPollo V2X |
|---|---|---|
| $1,902 | Upfront cost (MSRP) | $990 |
| -$5.93 | Daily net profit | -$0.40 |
| -$4,066 | Net after 1 year | -$1,135 |
| -$6,229 | Net after 2 years | -$1,279 |
| -$8,393 | Net after 3 years | -$1,424 |
| 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.
