1st question : https://www.coinwarz.com/mining/bitcoin/calculator
2nd question: best is p2p pool mining if you have 1 asic
Discussion
asics cannot be used. it was made inefficient in the last fork in order to keep mining decentralized
ASICS are still in used
you need to understand what asics are:
it stands for application specific integrated circuit
all asics are made in china
meaning that asics can only mine bitcoin, nothing else
what is the implication:
normal computers, cpus, gpus,android cannot mine bitcoin
as a consequence bitcoin is getting very centralized
in huge data centers, more and more centralized
the government corporations know where those datacenters are and could easily blackmail them into 'compliance" with whatever they want
monero cannot be mined with asics
monero cannot be tracked or traced. it can only be if you allow it. providing perfect privacy.
monero is a community project being mined on any computer, becoming more and more decentralized.
monero cannot be blackmailed or shut down by anyone
from coinwartz: if you buy antminer s19xp you pay 17999.- usd and you make 1.96 usd per day minus pool fees at an electricity charge of 10 cents per kwh which is very low
this shows that bitcoin mining is not profitable for a normal miner.
it can only be made profitable for large corporations buying asics in bulk, operating large mining centers, as big as amazon warehouses or google datacenters. as a result bitcoin mining is becoming more and more centralized.
monero can be mined on any pc, telephone, even on android car stereos. it cannot be mined on asics efficiently in order to keep it decentralized
