To keep this short and simple, I want some ideas/opinions on me investing 20,000 Euro into Ethereum mining rigs.
Yes, I have calculated some averages and stuff, it will take at least 10-/+ month for ROI.
But what do you think, will it be profitable in long-term, for like 3-5 years?
-----------------------
Thanks for all the replies, with 20,000 EURO the plan is to get around 1250mh/s power. Also about the electricity, here is cheap 0.08$kw/h so it's not that's much of a spending (but you never know, for 200$ I can get someone to connect it illegally xd).
To the guy who said buy 20,000 EURO ETH now, sounds good and it's safer but I'm planning in long-term. But let's make a simple calculation, at least in my point of view (please someone correct me if I'm wrong or anything, I want to learn)
With that mining power (1250mh/s), I'm looking at around 60 ETH a year. Let's say in 5 years, I'll have 250 ETH (I'm taking worst scenario, because of difficulty, luck, technical stuff etc). And in 5 years 1 ETH = 2500 euro, I'll be sitting on top of 625,000 euro.
Now let's calculate buying 20,000 Euro of ETH now, which is 30 ETH. In 5 years 1 ETH = 2500 euro, I'll be sitting on top of 75,000 euro.
This is my point of view, please anyone give me a detailed theory or proven answer that I'm wrong, as I said I want to research and take opinions by as many as I can so get a conclusion.
NOTE: I'm not putting my life savings on this so even if it fails, I can sell the rigs and get burned maybe 10,000 euro or less.
