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.
| Antminer S19 Pro | Metric | Bitmain Antminer S9k (13.5Th) |
|---|---|---|
| $2,500 | Upfront cost (MSRP) | $600 |
| -$3.80 | Daily net profit | -$2.65 |
| -$3,887 | Net after 1 year | -$1,568 |
| -$5,274 | Net after 2 years | -$2,537 |
| -$6,660 | Net after 3 years | -$3,505 |
| 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.
