Respective Benefits
1. Why Do People Start Mining Crypto?
Crypto mining is generally looked at as more of a long term venture compared to trading.
So what benefits does crypto mining have?
Machine Revenue Appreciation Potential
Historically, as the price of the coin that a machine mines increases, the value of the machine production increases as well. Miners that accumulate and hold their mined crypto have the potential to see their entire mined portfolio increase with the value of the market.
Machine Value Appreciation Potential
Each crypto mining machine has a market value. The market value of each machine flucutates based on how much revenue the machine produces. Historically, as the production of machines increases, their resale value on the secondary market has the potential to do so as well.
Passive Operation Revenue Potential
Cryptocurrency mining is very energy intensive, which is why we have hosting centers strategically located around the world where we can provide affordable electricity, with stable cooling and filtration solutions and on-site technicians monitoring your machines for a truly hands-off mining operation.
Tax Deduction and Advantage Potential
Clients can structure their purchases to get potential tax deductions for their equipment purchases and operational expenses for both their personal and business accounts. Please contact a tax professional to see if a mining hardware purchase is something that can use as a deduction.
The Infrastructure Of Crypto-Currency
2. How Does Mining Actually Work?
Verifying Payments
Mining operates very similarly to how servers work for banks and credit card companies. This process makes sure that there are no duplicate transactions on the network when money is sent from one account to another. Banks and CC companies handle the verification process themselves for all of their transactions for which they take a transaction fee for doing so.
Block Validation
In the mining process, information is validated in a blockchain block by generating a cryptographic solution that matches specific criteria. When a correct solution is reached, a reward in the form of new crypto and transaction fees for the work done is given to the miner(s) who reached the solution.
Infrastructure
Mining is the infrastructure of crypto. The purpose of mining is to validating the transaction information and maintaining the integrity of the blockchain, while the crypto reward is the incentive to mine. Mining is necessary to maintain the ledger of transactions upon which Bitcoin is based.
You Can Benefit
Since most cryptocurrencies are decentralized, there isno single company that owns the right to set up infrastructure to manage and verify transactions. This allows people and businesses alike to take advantage of it, generating revenue from the process of securing the blockchain.

3. Options For Getting Started
3a) At-Home Mining Farms
Each machine takes on average 3400 watts of power, which is the largest barrier to entry for most individuals looking to get started with crypto mining. Before getting starting, check your cost of electricity. If it is higher than .098/kWh, you will get a better electricity rate by hosting your machines at one of our facilities.
For the wattage consumed, you will need at least a 220v 20 amp outlet. It is also important to use a PDU that has outlets that are rated for your voltage. Mining does not require a significant amount of internet data, but will need a consistent wired internet connection to connect your ASIC miner. Our team will provide guides on how to properly set up and configure your mining equipment if you choose to operate it at home.
3b) Miner Hosting
Due to the large power requirements of mining, most people are not able to take advantage of crypto mining because of the high electricity rates across the country. That is where we come in. We have data centers working directly with large power producers like a hydro-electric dam at our Washington facility and a wind farm in Minnesota where we have rates locked in that are cheaper than most places in the country.
This gives us the ability to offer our clients full a-z facilitation where you purchase and own your machine, but hire us to operate your machinery at significantly cheaper rates than if you were to run it at home and maintain it.
What Is Hosting?
4. What Is Miner Hosting?
When clients choose to work with us, we store and manage their equipment in facilities designed specifically for operating high powered mining machines. Power purchase agreements put in place with electricity providers locking each client into a set electricity rate. This makes mining at our facility often significantly cheaper than running anywhere else.
Each facility is created with solutions for cooling, air filtration, and monitoring in mind. Hosting with us features access to on site technicians handling all hardware operations, upkeep, and software regulation to give clients a hands-off mining experience.

Qualifying Questions
Is Mining Right For You?
Are You Looking To Invest In Crypto For The Long Term?
Crypto mining is a long term purchase into the infrastructure of crypto. While crypto mining may generate cashflow every single month, the beauty lies in the upside potential of your entire mined portfolio and the value of your equipment. Experts recommend to be prepared for the long term to truly get the most out of their mining operation.
Are You Purchasing With Money That You Are Reliant On?
If you are using money that you need to pay your bills, please be advised. While there may be a high upside, mining is not something that will guarantee rewards or make you rich overnight, however. A good rule of thumb is to only purchase with what you can afford to.
Do You Have Liquid Assets?
Liquid assets are all of your cash, crypto holdings, stocks, and other assets that can be easily converted to cash. Crypto mining often requires a minimum purchase amount of ~ $25,000 to get started. That money is locked up in a machine that may take some time to liquidate. We recommend anyone interested in getting into mining to diversify only the assets they are not going to need in the immediate future - similarly to real estate rental property or an ATM purchase.
