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.
| MicroBT Whatsminer M10 | Metric | Whatsminer M60S++ |
|---|---|---|
| $2,500 | Upfront cost (MSRP) | $7,000 |
| -$3.96 | Daily net profit | -$1.59 |
| -$3,946 | Net after 1 year | -$7,579 |
| -$5,391 | Net after 2 years | -$8,158 |
| -$6,837 | Net after 3 years | -$8,737 |
| 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.
