I used publicly reported snapshots (hashprice and rent figures) and manufacturer specs; you should treat the chart as directional. For mining, the chart shows revenue at current network prices (pre-electricity and other costs). To judge profitability you must subtract electricity ($/kWh), cooling, hosting, fees, and amortize hardware cost. For AI data centers, “revenue per kW” is rent charged to tenants — the operator’s margin depends on utilization, financing, depreciation, power contracts, and customer mix. Reports show AI tenants can and do pay premiums for dense, liquid-cooled racks. This chart was generated with the assistance of ChatGPT. https://cryptominers.au/blog/what-to-watch-out-for-cheap-open-source-miners-and-why-theyre-risky monthly 0.5 2025-12-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68ff1e7fee0fad77349c1d05/264f9957-7908-496f-ad5c-76d1b22e88a3/image.png Blog - What to Watch Out For: Cheap, “Open-Source Mimick” Miners And Why They’re A Risk to Open-Source - Make it stand out correct ESP32 wifi chip for the Bitaxe gamma 601 and 602.
