- Baikal Mini Miner 46% more home mining score (26.0 vs 38.0)
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.
| iBeLink DM56G | Metric | Baikal Mini Miner |
|---|---|---|
| — | Upfront cost (MSRP) | $1,000 |
| -$5.04 | Daily net profit | -$0.12 |
| -$1,839 | Net after 1 year | -$1,044 |
| -$3,678 | Net after 2 years | -$1,088 |
| -$5,517 | Net after 3 years | -$1,131 |
| — | 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.
