What makes you say Whatsminers are in a different ballgame? I have minimum knowledge on mining but recently been looking at the different options
Discussion
They’re more expensive up front, but that definitely is valid with how tough they are. But also their power draw is always going to be a bit higher per TH. If Whatsminers and Antminers were the same price by $/TH, I’d get a Whatsminer all day though. But they’re just overall a bit more expensive, but last a lot longer.
That's good info 🙏 iv been looking at the M30S++ & the S19J Pro, both 100TH/s both similar in price on the site iv been looking at. Assumed Bitmain was the way but now you've got me thinking
M30S++ was my favorite for a while, and power consumption is not tooooo entirely different (about 400-500W more depending on the j Pro you’re looking at) but if you can find a cheap enough up front price for an M30S++ and that extra power isn’t too much for you, I’d take that offer.
