Your Savings Account Isn't Keeping Up

Antminer S21 XP HYD 2 1

Let's say you have $100,000 sitting in a savings account earning 4% annually. That sounds great until you do the math. A 4% yield generates about $333 per month. Meanwhile, inflation continues to erode the purchasing power of those dollars.


Now consider a different approach.


At current market conditions, an S21 XP Hydro hosted at $0.08/kWh is generating approximately $465 worth of Bitcoin per month with around $332.39 per month in hosting costs.

That's $332.39 in operating costs to produce roughly $465 worth of BTC. This spread is one reason many investors choose to mine Bitcoin instead of simply buying it on an exchange.


Mining also offers another potential advantage for qualifying businesses.Under Section 179, qualifying businesses may be able to deduct the cost of eligible mining equipment in the year it is placed into service rather than depreciating it over several years. Always consult your tax professional to determine eligibility.


Now let's scale the example.


A $100,000 investment can purchase approximately 13 S21 Hydro 495T units. At current market conditions, those units can generate approximately $160 per month in net profit per miner after hosting costs, or roughly $2,080 per month across all 13 units. Instead of earning roughly $333 per month in a savings account, you're operating productive assets that generate Bitcoin every day.


Bitcoin mining isn't for everyone. There are risks, including changes in Bitcoin price, network difficulty, and miner efficiency. But for investors looking for an alternative to holding cash, mining provides something unique:


The opportunity to accumulate Bitcoin while operating an income-producing asset.
