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.

Bitmain Antminer S3	Metric	Innosilicon T3+ 57T
—	Upfront cost (MSRP)	$550
-$0.86	Daily net profit	-$5.85
-$314	Net after 1 year	-$2,684
-$629	Net after 2 years	-$4,817
-$943	Net after 3 years	-$6,951
—	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.
