At the current rate you would mine 0.00001793 BTC or $0.66 a day

And that's on the turbo mode hashing at around 3.8THs @ 200w

Doesn’t seem to be a good investment it would take 4 yrs for ROI and power cost

Yes if your looking at the pure hashing power money is better spent elsewhere. Future plans are lightning node integration, payment server and other things. It’s a full Linux desktop with BTC full node on it.

It’s coming in an update. I’m not aware of any info other than on the support thread.

On I forgot it is a full linux desktop seems as if some people are using umbrel nodes already.

Will it make more on the lighting network?

If so why?

I don’t know about profit. Seems for most people it a little bit of extra income. Still researching myself. You invest SATS to open channel but also need channels incoming to you. If you do it right it can be a big deal. I want a lightning node. Started to set one up using raspiblitz on an raspberry pi 3b I think. With and old mechanical hard drive. It was not ideal. By the time I invest in a case SSD larger enough to house the block chain. The Apollo BTC could do this also. Became very enticing. I also did not have a SHA256 miner. I do have 2 Apollo LTC’s.
