Re: My future as a Miner

But then answer another question: why is Bitcoin's hashrate growing? Is it possible that mining companies haven't heard of the DCA strategy?
I think this is to some extent similar to;1. A large scale farmer vs a small scale farmer
2. Large scale earth mineral miner vs a small scale miner.
Who benefits the most in the long run? Obviously, the big guy.
They are able to cut deals through preordering and importing the equipment, they get tax cuts, they are able to get lower electricity tariffs for industrial use compared to the small guy.
All the comments are valid, but
It's possible that inexperienced newbies continue to invest in mining, but I don't believe that. Newbies don't have the necessary processing power, and even a 3-kilowatt ASIC in an apartment would be a challenge.
Therefore, I'm confident that it's the big players, not small miners, who are investing in mining.
According to the latest data, 5 GW of power is used for mining in Russia, but legal miners use no more than 40% of the capacity.
