When Bitcoin Mining Gets REALLY serious :)
So a couple of photos just flew by from a company called Rambox Technology. No clue as who they are or what they do, but they are based in Hong Kong and apparently are a bit serious about cryptocurrency mining :)
Right well, I am just going to leave you guys with the photos and then let the comment section explode. I guess they are selling mining farms? Thank god for PCIe Riser cables eh? And now you know what graphics cards are on limited availability world-wide Lol.

16x 6-card rigs, assuming 1070s since AMD gpus are getting shafted by the DAG epochs at around 110w would put it at 10.5 kW. Price of electricity in the US is around 0.121 $/kWh, which would put monthly bill at 914$ a month. That said, they would make 450$ a day today.
In a month, that is a different story, since with etherum, you would RoI in about 7 months, but it won't be minable by then. ZCash with current difficulty change would be unprofitable in about 6 months without RoI, and after all the insane amount of hashrate from etherum moves to other altcoins, like zencash or ETC or whatever else, the difficulty spike will only keep solars very slightly profitable.
Hmm I wonder how much is the electric bill lol.
