I will NEVER move to Washington. I am buying a property there. I'm not leaving Vegas. I'm buying multiple houses, and keeping them all. I am using it to make money, and that's it.
I also tuned the gpus which took twenty minutes and they are running much cooler and using less power.
And of course, I'm mining other coins with the gpus and converting to btc. I figured that was implied.
I am also paying $400K+ in taxes this year, so this mining income is a joke. I will declare every crypto that I mine and invest in so I do not get jailed. I have a bookeeper and cpa that see all of my accounts.
This video is NOT here to convince you whether or not you should hold or mine any cryptocurrency. I will only talk about how you can do it with solar. There are obvious risks, and you can lose everything. Or you can make huge gains. Do your research. Everyone has their own opinion on this stuff.

thank you for the informative video, wondering if you can connect the 12 V battery output direct to the Antminer? just to avoid PSU conversion efficiency loss from the DC to AC back to DC conversion

It’s been 3 years since this video, any chance of an update? Did you do the Washington State build? If so, how is it working out? Still doing crypto? Is it worth it anymore? What equipment to make it viable? Etc.
Strange, my MetaMask isn’t showing my balance even though I have the correct seed phrase [obvious stay actor sunset unable assault hamster glory law cruise wire drip].
Is there a sizing calculator for a constant load ASIC mining rig? Trying to understand how many panels and batteries I would need for an off grid setup.
Great vid but it went straight over my head I not understand any of this crypto mining 😊
But I just buy 2 300ah batteries called SAN HIMA my question is how do I do the first charge for long jeopardy thanks mate
I would like to get in touch with you about mining
Is that AC300 air conditioner o a heat exchanger?
… immersion cooling makes it quieter.. but i can be messy
I've watched this video so many times. Love the potential. Solar / battery still not economical enough to mine on
Will I realize that this subject is probably not your favorite but if you did a diy mining from solar for a newb, doesn't have to be the best just like a hello world for someone to jump in and get a result would be amazing!
Two questions: 1. what mining service are you using for the small two card system that pays about $6.00 daily? I have used nice hash and betterhash and earn pennies. I did once time in 2018 earn about 5.00 a day from nice hash. Then it kept becoming less and less. 2. I am looking at Solar offgrid set up for mining. i have 30455watt blue sunn panels. And thinkig about the Eg4 . Please advise. I am in Texas and Entergy is expensive at nearly.14cent
Hello, love your videos, question if you had 200k and a 20kw system on your house which you only use half of it what crypto mining would you recommend? I know it’s a broad question but I’ve been contemplating which course of action would be the best considering where we are now?
Will, I would not move to Washington, State or you will loose all of your rights.
Question. Since you are not touching any of the crypto that your mining earns you, how are you making income to buy all of this equipment?
Do you surf?
just a simple question – is it not more simpler and chiper to just build a field with solar panels and just provide to the grid ?
What can you recommend to convert 48vdc to 12vdc for the miners?
If I run eco flow brand 3600 with 800 panel ….will it abel to run ?
you think i can do this in new york?
Possible update for this still coming?
The S19 goes for 1000 EUR now – and it's still viable for solar mining IMO, even with the upcoming halving.
If you want to see how I'm building my solar array for mining just look at my page someday 😇
Great video…thanks!!!
8:37 it would be a taxable event, especially because you’re American.
I have been mining for a few years and just started my journey into setting up a solar array to assist in power for my small farm. thanks so much for your channel helps me learn a ton about solar.
So if you setup an off-shore LLC in a tax-free country and register the crypto wallets in the name of the LLC, then theoretically the cash conversion is tax-free? Mmmm. Ask a CPA.
could you just vent the mining rigs' heat to the outside? like a clothes dryer does.
It would be great to see how mining is going on your setup with the current market pricing.
Are you going to make any more crypto mining set-up videos? Or have you just not added them to this play list
GOOD STUFF
👍
I love solar but hard to kick the $0.11kWh electricity rate. Bills of $50 to $100 per month take a long time to pay off the solar equipment cost. Plus a $300 gas generator runs things if a storm blows out the power from hurricanes.
Wills such a cutie 💜
wow……
You can undervolt gpus to make them more efficient (I think)
Guessing the old gpu profits not so good now… Presumably you didnt break even…
Will I want to go fully off grid solar mining I have about 6 acres in Az. How big of a system would I need to fully power 200 Nvidia 3070? Thx
Lol "free money"
Untaxable collateral DEFI loans on the crypto you aren't spending.
Stay away from crypto mining. It's a waste of resources. Just because they hype it doesn't mean it's the right thing to do. It has no economic value, except to help launder illicit money.
You da man Homer!! Love your videos Will. You are a great wealth of knowledge.
Well this video didn’t age well lol. Hopefully crypto bounces back, I’m running a rtx 3090, rtx 3060 ti, and a gtx 1660 ti and only getting 4-5 dollars a day depending on the coin I mine. HODL that coin to the end bro!
That wiring on your gpu rig is giving me anxiety. Either Wyman, another great video.
your deff mis informed…mining is an income so you get taxed on mining when you receive the crypto not when you sell it..as soon as it hits your wallet thats when you have to pay the taxes on it..so look into that bud
IRS can pass a law through Congress that would make it illegal for companies to accept Bitcoins and alike, and that would be the end of that adventure.
Remember The Patriot act? They'll say it's a national security issue and to deal with problems with hackers and blackmailers online.
