Overview

This skill provides a Monero mining profitability calculator that estimates:

• Daily/weekly/monthly XMR earnings
• Electricity costs
• Net profit/loss
• Break-even analysis
• ROI (Return on Investment) estimates

Quick Use

# Calculate profitability
monero-profitability

# With custom inputs
monero-profitability --hashrate 2000 --power 100 --cost 0.12

Profitability Factors

1. Hardware Parameters

• Hashrate: Your mining hardware's hashrate (H/s)
• Power Consumption: Watts used by mining hardware
• Hardware Cost: Initial investment cost

2. Operational Costs

• Electricity Cost: $/kWh (your local rate)
• Pool Fees: % charged by mining pool
• Maintenance: Additional costs

3. Market Factors

• XMR Price: Current Monero price in USD
• Network Difficulty: Current network difficulty
• Block Reward: Current block reward (XMR)

Example Calculation

Hardware:
- Hashrate: 2000 H/s
- Power: 100W
- Cost: $500

Operational:
- Electricity: $0.12/kWh
- Pool Fee: 1%

Market (current):
- XMR Price: $65
- Network Difficulty: 60,000,000
- Block Reward: 0.6 XMR

Results:
- Daily XMR: 0.0003
- Daily USD: $0.02
- Daily Electricity: $0.29
- Daily Net: -$0.27
- Monthly Net: -$8.10
- ROI: Never profitable (electricity > earnings)

Profitability Scenarios

Low-Power Setup (CPU Mining)

• Hashrate: 100 H/s
• Power: 50W
• Cost: $0.12/kWh
• Result: Usually unprofitable (educational only)

Mid-Range Setup (Laptop CPU)

• Hashrate: 500 H/s
• Power: 75W
• Cost: $0.12/kWh
• Result: Educational break-even

High-End Setup (Desktop CPU)

• Hashrate: 2000 H/s
• Power: 100W
• Cost: $0.12/kWh
• Result: Still unprofitable for most

Server-Grade Setup

• Hashrate: 10000 H/s
• Power: 500W
• Cost: $0.12/kWh
• Result: May be profitable in low-electricity regions

Break-Even Analysis

Break-even occurs when:

Daily Earnings = Daily Costs
Daily XMR * XMR Price = Daily Power Cost

Example: 2000 H/s, $0.12/kWh

• Daily Power: 100W * 24h * $0.12/1000 = $0.29
• Daily XMR: ~0.0003
• Break-even XMR Price: $0.29 / 0.0003 = $967

Since XMR price is typically $50-100, most setups are unprofitable.

ROI Calculation

ROI = (Total Earnings - Total Costs) / Total Costs

Example: $500 hardware, $0.29/day electricity

• Monthly Earnings: 0.0003 * 30 * $65 = $0.59
• Monthly Costs: $8.70
• Monthly Net: -$8.11
• ROI: Never (negative)

When Mining Might Be Profitable

1. Free/cheap electricity (e.g., solar, institutional)
2. High XMR price (bull market)
3. Low network difficulty (early mining)
4. Heat reuse (mining for heating)
5. Educational purposes (not profit-driven)

Mining Calculator Script

# Example Python script for calculation
import requests
import json

def calculate_profitability(hashrate=2000, power=100, cost=0.12):
    # Fetch current XMR data
    xmr_data = requests.get('https://api.coingecko.com/api/v3/coins/monero').json()
    price = xmr_data['market_data']['current_price']['usd']
    
    # Estimate earnings (simplified)
    # Average miner earns ~0.00015 XMR per 1000 H/s per day
    daily_xmr = (hashrate / 1000) * 0.00015
    daily_usd = daily_xmr * price
    
    # Electricity cost
    daily_power = (power / 1000) * 24 * cost
    
    # Results
    return {
        'daily_xmr': daily_xmr,
        'daily_usd': daily_usd,
        'daily_electricity': daily_power,
        'daily_net': daily_usd - daily_power,
        'monthly_net': (daily_usd - daily_power) * 30
    }

Practical Tips

• Use profitability calculators before investing
• Consider electricity costs first
• Start small for educational purposes
• Monitor network difficulty changes
• Don't expect profit from CPU mining

When NOT to Mine

• If electricity costs > $0.10/kWh
• If hardware cost > $100
• If you need immediate returns
• If you're not interested in learning
