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.
| Jasminer X16-Q | Metric | iPollo V1 Mini Wifi 280 |
|---|---|---|
| $3,500 | Upfront cost (MSRP) | $700 |
| -$1.49 | Daily net profit | -$0.53 |
| -$4,043 | Net after 1 year | -$893 |
| -$4,586 | Net after 2 years | -$1,085 |
| -$5,129 | Net after 3 years | -$1,278 |
| 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.
