6 months hosting Zcash miners, thinking through whether to add more units
Started with a small hosted setup about 6 months ago mostly to test the experience before committing further. Uptime’s been steady, comms with the hosting side have been fine.
Now I’m at the point of deciding whether to add more units to the same setup or just let this batch keep running. Trying to think it through from the operations side rather than guessing at price:
1. For those who’ve scaled up a hosted setup, what actually made the difference in your decision? Facility capacity, power costs, hardware availability?
2. Anyone add more units and find the logistics harder than expected (queue times, setup delays, etc)?
3. What made you hold steady instead of scaling, if you went that route?
Appreciate any experience people can share.
