How Bitcoin Mining Worksheets Stay Honest
Educational mining worksheet: profit/day = revenue − electricity − pool fee. All rates are user-entered; not a hosting quote or guaranteed return. This article walks through the arithmetic without pretending the worksheet is a live quote.
Educational only
Educational worksheet only—not mining advice, a hosting contract, or a promised return. Hashrate and difficulty are not fetched live; enter revenue yourself. Confirm power and rates with your own meters and invoices.
The Question a Worksheet Can Answer
Electricity cost/day = (watts ÷ 1000) × hours × rate. Pool fee = revenue × fee%. Profit/day = revenue − electricity − pool fee. Monthly ≈ profit/day × 30.
Inputs Worth Labeling
Practical habits
- Choose a display currency.
- Enter expected mining revenue per day in that currency.
- Enter miner power draw in watts and your electricity rate per kWh.
- Enter pool fee percent and hours online, then review daily and monthly profit.
Formulas
- Electricity cost/day: (watts ÷ 1000) × hours × rate
- Profit/day: revenue − electricity − (revenue × poolFee%)
Common Mistakes
Treating blog tips as live rates, mixing currencies, and comparing scenarios with different horizons. Keep labels explicit.
