Continuing from the last post, let’s dive straight into numbers.According to B, each mining machine (ballpark estimate depending on the model) can mine about 0.052 BTC per year assuming around 90% uptime. The cost of the machines varies with market conditions. For example, right before a major bull market, each machine might cost somewhere between $5,000 and $10,000 USD. In a bear market, prices are lower; during a bull run, they spike.Now here’s something most people miss: mining isn’t an “investment” per se—it’s an operational business. That means expenses like electricity, hardware, and maintenance aren’t just costs—they’re deductible. You can... Continue reading

Continuing from the last post, this was honestly a strategy that I couldn’t wait to write about. Once I ran the numbers on mining returns (more on that in the next post), I had one chat with their team, confirmed the machine type and quantity, and that was it.As I mentioned before, I’ve stepped on so many landmines in the crypto space—don’t even get me started. I could run a full-on roast session just listing them all. So by now, I know exactly what I don’t want to do: no futures, no short-term trading, no airdrops, no flipping, no constant...

Continuing from the last post, B said that the actual mining process is surprisingly simple, especially since their service offers full management from start to finish.Step 1 is choosing your mining machine. The more efficient models obviously cost more, while the less efficient ones are cheaper. Cooling, lifespan, and performance vary depending on price tier, so it really just depends on your budget and goals—machines range from a few thousand to over ten thousand dollars apiece.Step 2 is deciding how many machines to buy. This part is based on your personal objectives—once you understand the mining cycle, ROI, and payback... Continue reading

Continuing from the last post, B told me he used to believe the mainstream narrative that real estate was the ultimate passive income stream (who didn’t, right? 😂), so he went into real estate. But after a few painfully exhausting years, he realized he’d basically gotten himself a full-time job with no income, doing all the lowest-value tasks imaginable. Worst of all, it was nearly impossible to exit once he got in. His story was a carbon copy of my experience in real estate as well (I even wrote a whole series called “Buying Multifamily Buildings” just to rant about... Continue reading
