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.
| iPollo V2H | Metric | Jasminer X16-Q |
|---|---|---|
| $1,850 | Upfront cost (MSRP) | $789 |
| -$1.14 | Daily net profit | -$1.49 |
| -$2,266 | Net after 1 year | -$1,332 |
| -$2,682 | Net after 2 years | -$1,875 |
| -$3,098 | Net after 3 years | -$2,418 |
| 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.
