Hosting vs Self-Hosting Miners
Compare profitability, risk, and operational load between managed hosting and running miners yourself.
Execution Steps
- Calculate all-in cost for self-hosting (electricity, cooling, downtime, maintenance).
- Compare against fixed hosting offers with SLA and support terms.

- Select the path that gives predictable uptime and manageable operations.
