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 XP | Metric | Bitmain Antminer S19j Pro (96Th) |
|---|---|---|
| $4,500 | Upfront cost (MSRP) | $550 |
| -$2.13 | Daily net profit | -$3.30 |
| -$5,276 | Net after 1 year | -$1,755 |
| -$6,053 | Net after 2 years | -$2,960 |
| -$6,829 | Net after 3 years | -$4,166 |
| 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.
