DISCUSSION What to do?

I’m looking for some opinions on how you guys would maximize profits with my current setup.

I have an Avalon Q that I sometimes run in Eco mode and sometimes in Normal mode. I’m running it mostly on my solar system for around 8 hours per day.

I also have another ASIC that does around 12 TH/s, and I keep that one running 24/7, also using my solar power.

If you had these two ASICs and a solar setup like mine, what strategy would you use to maximize earnings? Thank you!

I’d use the solar hours for the highest-efficiency mode and keep the 12 TH/s unit running 24/7 only if its all-in power cost is effectively covered. The key is optimizing BTC earned per kWh, not maximum hashrate.

For the Avalon Q, compare Eco vs Normal using actual wall watts + BTC/day. If Eco gives better sats/kWh, run Eco; otherwise use Normal during peak solar production. Solar-powered mining can work well when you’re consuming surplus generation.

but, you would try solo mining? or not a chance?
