00:00:00
I've been building my Bitcoin mining
00:00:01
farm for years and I'm even looking at
00:00:03
solar to offset my electricity costs but
00:00:06
now bitcoin's finally pumped and there's
00:00:09
about $50 million that goes out to
00:00:11
bitcoin miners every single day so am I
00:00:15
just absolutely rolling in coin here or
00:00:18
is it maybe not as lucrative as you may
00:00:20
think because Bitcoin mining competition
00:00:23
continues to increase hey I'm Drew Vos
00:00:26
you're on the boscoin YouTube channel
00:00:28
and we're going to run through my
00:00:29
Bitcoin mining profitability numbers uh
00:00:31
if it's worth it and where am I going
00:00:33
from
00:00:42
here at the time we're recording this
00:00:44
Bitcoin is worth about
00:00:47
$96,000 per coin still crazy to see $47
00:00:51
million in a mission in the last 24
00:00:53
hours that means that Bitcoin miners has
00:00:55
basically earned $47 million that's the
00:00:57
amount of coins mined and also fee Fe
00:01:00
transaction fees on the blockchain uh
00:01:02
for Bitcoin goes back to the miners
00:01:05
speaking of mining I may be building my
00:01:07
own mining Farm but if you don't feel
00:01:08
like doing that check out Revolution
00:01:10
mining where you can buy miners with
00:01:12
them and they will run them for you link
00:01:14
out in the video description below and
00:01:16
thanks to them for making today's video
00:01:19
possible uh in the last 7 days
00:01:21
difficulty's gone up
00:01:24
1.6% Bitcoin difficulty charts hard to
00:01:28
type uh check this out right Bitcoin
00:01:32
mining continues to get more and more
00:01:33
difficult it's obvious you would assume
00:01:36
that you know that but what does it look
00:01:38
like over the last year uh it's got a
00:01:41
good bit more difficult basically going
00:01:43
from 67 to now a difficulty of 104 if we
00:01:48
go back 3 years it's all the way down to
00:01:50
22 uh so it's very safe to assume that
00:01:53
it will continue to get more and more
00:01:55
difficult the Bitcoin having occurred in
00:01:57
2024 and it barely made a dent in the
00:02:00
Bitcoin mining difficulty but it did
00:02:03
make a huge dent in Bitcoin mining
00:02:06
profitability one thing in particular
00:02:08
that's pretty interesting to see in uh
00:02:10
disclosure I I own mea uh among many
00:02:13
other Bitcoin crypto stocks uh they've
00:02:16
adopted the micro strategy play and and
00:02:19
they're basically just buying
00:02:20
Bitcoin and their stock is doing great
00:02:23
because of that and if we go out further
00:02:25
it wasn't doing all that well but since
00:02:27
they've changed up strategies uh they
00:02:29
have rebounded
00:02:31
significantly uh so I'm not pushing
00:02:33
Marathon right uh I'm just saying this
00:02:36
is a publicly traded Bitcoin mining
00:02:39
farm that is instead of expanding the
00:02:42
mining farm and other things they're
00:02:44
just literally buying Bitcoin right now
00:02:45
and it's going great for them and their
00:02:47
holders the game's changing and it's
00:02:50
just kind of weird but that's a little
00:02:52
bit of a overview scenario so I've got a
00:02:55
bunch of Bitcoin miners at least from my
00:02:57
point of view uh and on this one mining
00:02:59
po particular I have 26 that are
00:03:02
online on that mining pool I have
00:03:04
basically five latest generation uh
00:03:06
miners one is downclocked a little bit
00:03:08
because I've been having a lot of
00:03:09
problems with that S21 and it's been
00:03:11
warrantied already uh the bottom line is
00:03:14
though basically five current generation
00:03:17
and then 21 previous generation that
00:03:20
equates to about three pah of mining
00:03:25
power and it's really 2.9 right now uh
00:03:30
it would be over three if my two miners
00:03:32
that were down on my dcx bit pod were
00:03:34
online but uh that's gone down again so
00:03:38
looking at my reward here I'm basically
00:03:39
mining .19
00:03:42
to18 uh BTC realistically I think we can
00:03:45
look at I I'd say I'm probably getting
00:03:47
about
00:03:51
0182 maybe a slight round up there
00:03:53
Bitcoin per day uh in mining rewards
00:03:57
dollarize that's about $175
00:04:00
right there uh in Bitcoin mining so if
00:04:05
we
00:04:06
look at uh 175 divid by 26
00:04:12
miners I'm earning about
00:04:14
$66.72 per Bitcoin minor and a lot of
00:04:18
these machines probably cost me around
00:04:19
five bucks a day to run uh some cost me
00:04:21
more like six almost $7 a day to run uh
00:04:26
so really best case scenario you could
00:04:29
probably say I'm earning about $2 per
00:04:31
machine so my Revenue May be$ 175 a day
00:04:35
but my profits are more like 50 bucks a
00:04:37
day and when you understand what it
00:04:39
takes to run 26 miners that's not that
00:04:43
awesome I always feel better when I
00:04:45
break the numbers out over a longer time
00:04:46
period right so over the next year that
00:04:48
would be plus 20 grand I mean that's
00:04:50
pretty cool uh that's kind of exciting
00:04:53
and hopefully Bitcoin doubles in that
00:04:55
time right then maybe it' be like 40
00:04:58
Grand I mean that's what happened over
00:05:00
the last year and then some when I mined
00:05:02
and held all of my Bitcoin uh so some
00:05:06
things to kind of think about and
00:05:07
consider but remember things don't
00:05:08
always just go up forever uh
00:05:11
everything's a cycle more or less uh but
00:05:13
that's the reality right of Bitcoin
00:05:15
mining my situation what I'm earning and
00:05:19
I'm just kind of sitting here what do I
00:05:21
do where do I go from here I have my
00:05:23
other video I recently posted talking
00:05:25
about solar for the house looking at
00:05:27
solar for commercial deployment too
00:05:29
looking at pulling in three phase uh but
00:05:33
the costs to do that have recently
00:05:35
skyrocketed uh for me unfortunately
00:05:37
which I talked about another video so I
00:05:39
won't drone on and on about that in
00:05:41
today's video uh but I sit here I look
00:05:43
at my
00:05:45
numbers I'm happy I'm not
00:05:48
thrilled uh Bitcoin mining has been
00:05:50
doing very well uh like to date for me
00:05:54
um only because my Bitcoin that I've
00:05:58
mined and held
00:06:00
has has done well uh if Bitcoin hadn't
00:06:03
gone up so much I wouldn't be singing
00:06:05
that same tune but when I zoom in on a
00:06:07
day-to-day performance it's not exciting
00:06:10
right so I have 26 Bitcoin Miners and
00:06:13
you could buy one amp Miner L9 that mins
00:06:16
Dogecoin right now and you would
00:06:18
basically profit the same amount of
00:06:19
money per day after the electricity bill
00:06:22
so like you could have one L9 or you can
00:06:24
have my 26 Bitcoin Miners and they are
00:06:27
putting the same amount of coin into my
00:06:29
my pocket after electricity is accounted
00:06:31
for every single day and that's kind of
00:06:34
wild uh so the L9 has gone up a lot more
00:06:37
in price recently this is largely due to
00:06:40
the Dogecoin pump right who knows what
00:06:41
the future holds it's not as rock solid
00:06:44
as say Bitcoin I'm not saying that oh
00:06:46
doge is the way and Bitcoin sucks it's
00:06:48
just it's very sobering in a way right
00:06:52
uh this is all Asic mining these are
00:06:54
application specific integrated circuit
00:06:55
miners these are purpose built computers
00:06:58
custom machines
00:07:00
these devices mine one mining algorithm
00:07:02
normally right so my Bitcoin miners mine
00:07:04
Bitcoin and they have whatever
00:07:06
efficiency of Watts consumed per
00:07:08
terahash of mining power right and then
00:07:10
you look at a doge Miner that mines the
00:07:12
script mining algorithm and it has its
00:07:14
own efficiency rating for that uh so I
00:07:17
just kind of sit here and I wonder what
00:07:19
do I do where do I go from here uh my
00:07:21
electricity on my current services are
00:07:23
basically maxed out I'm exploring if I
00:07:25
can pull in another service uh I just
00:07:27
kind of need to figure out what to do do
00:07:30
I is I'm not just trying to make a move
00:07:32
to make a move all right uh that's not
00:07:35
good gameplay necessarily I'm not bored
00:07:38
I always have stuff to do my to-do list
00:07:39
is never
00:07:40
ending but in my opinion we are entering
00:07:46
uh the bowl run right we are in the bowl
00:07:48
run really uh and it's kind of like last
00:07:52
call to maybe expand my mining Farm
00:07:56
maybe buy gear maybe just have expansion
00:07:59
ready for any new opportunities that
00:08:01
come up in this cycle I don't want to
00:08:05
get fomo and I don't want to be chasing
00:08:07
the time to build really was over the
00:08:10
last year when we were making videos
00:08:12
almost every single day and everyone out
00:08:14
there winning subscribed and watch those
00:08:17
videos yeah it's a Shameless plug if you
00:08:20
don't believe in yourself who the hell
00:08:21
is going to believe in you but seriously
00:08:23
I'm I'm spending so much time right now
00:08:25
evaluating do we expand the crypto
00:08:28
positions do we expand the stock
00:08:29
positions do we expand the mining Farm
00:08:32
do I just completely pivot here and
00:08:35
start seriously investing time and money
00:08:38
into solar power should I be pursuing
00:08:41
solar to power my miners should I just
00:08:44
look for a power purchase agreement with
00:08:46
my
00:08:47
solar uh I don't think that electricity
00:08:49
is going to get cheaper anytime soon and
00:08:53
maybe the new Administration will
00:08:55
explore some Alternatives that the
00:08:57
previous administration wasn't they kind
00:08:59
of said that but a lot of politicians
00:09:02
say a lot of things that never really
00:09:05
happen uh so I don't know that that's
00:09:09
kind of where I'm at that's where my
00:09:10
head's at I'm happy to be mining Bitcoin
00:09:12
looking forward I I'll keep running
00:09:14
these Bitcoin miners I'm definitely not
00:09:15
turning these things off when Bitcoin is
00:09:18
anything anywhere around $100,000 per
00:09:20
Bitcoin do I think that my s19
00:09:23
generation miners will be viable in 2026
00:09:25
probably not I think that I'll just have
00:09:28
to phase them out or off set them with
00:09:29
solar at that point I think s21s and
00:09:32
Beyond you know current generation
00:09:33
miners I I we recently reviewed the new
00:09:36
Avalon Miner um all that stuff uh will
00:09:38
be good to go I mean it's latest
00:09:40
generation uh they're continuing to
00:09:42
still make better and more efficient
00:09:44
miners there the huge leap and
00:09:46
efficiency has been a bit surprising it
00:09:48
shows that these manufacturers are
00:09:50
always ready to drop a new minor model
00:09:53
on you which makes it very difficult uh
00:09:55
to just bankroll a minor for years uh
00:09:58
it's just just the way the game goes I
00:10:00
guess uh that's a whole thing we'll
00:10:03
leave that at that so anyway hey I'm
00:10:05
bosar and the BOS one YouTube channel
00:10:06
this is a real life uh just glance into
00:10:10
what is this really like you know what
00:10:11
do I earn what is this costing right
00:10:14
what machines am I running how is this
00:10:17
all possible is this worth it am I
00:10:20
expanding am I not why those are
00:10:23
everything that I've been trying to
00:10:24
touch on here today uh specifically if
00:10:27
you're very curious about the models
00:10:28
I've shown them and talked about them
00:10:30
before but you can see my miners here on
00:10:33
my mining pool screen and you'll notice
00:10:36
that their hash trade is much lower than
00:10:37
their model number all of my miners are
00:10:39
on efficient settings right A lot of
00:10:41
these are like 30 watts per terahash and
00:10:44
by downclocking them I get them between
00:10:46
you know 20 and 25 watts per terahash uh
00:10:49
which significantly increases their
00:10:51
viability long term and has also allowed
00:10:53
me to increase my density uh right by
00:10:56
taking about 1,000 Watts off of each of
00:10:58
these s9s right I take that off of uh
00:11:01
two of them and now I can deploy another
00:11:03
one for about 2,000 Watts obviously
00:11:06
there's different ways to go about this
00:11:07
but uh life is just a game and I treat
00:11:10
it like a strategy game born straight
00:11:12
out of Warcraft 3 in Starcraft so here
00:11:14
we are I'm just trying to spawn more
00:11:16
overlords I'll see you on the next one
00:11:18
this is our CSO Chief strategy officer
00:11:21
here on the boscoin YouTube channel yep
00:11:24
that's cutie tals
00:11:36
[Music]
00:11:49
I'm
