Awesome that you are running a node, I haven't had time to dive into that rabbit hole yet. Honestly seems more complicated than mining to me. I like the nuts and bolts aspect of mining. Connecting to a pool and monitoring diagnostics is fairly simple. My approach to mining is to take any electric heat source I am already using and use a miner to create that heat instead. The mining on its own isn't profitable but when capturing the value of the heat as well all the sudden the appliances and applications become much more efficient. A dehydrator that uses 1kw of power vs a dehydrator that uses 1kw of power and mines Bitcoin is now getting two uses for that energy input. If you use a FPPS pool like Lincoin then the miner will be earning sats as long as it's hashing. Even though the flow of sats is small and intermittent, over time it does add up to be a significant rebate on the power usage. Plus it's kyc free Bitcoin!
