🚨 Satoshi’s Mining Costs Were Shockingly Low — Just $3,700 for 1M BTC?! 🧠💡
💬 “Imagine minting a $120 BILLION fortune… with less than $4,000 in electricity.”
That’s exactly what Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson says Satoshi Nakamoto might have done. 👀
📊 Here’s the breakdown:
🛠️ Scenario 1 — Solo PC Setup.
1 consumer-grade PC @ 190 watts.
75% uptime across 485 days
💸 Cost: $191 total 🤯
🖥️ Scenario 2 — Cluster Mining (Patoshi Pattern).
Likely real setup: multiple machines.
Higher usage, slight overseas cost bump
💸 Cost: $575–$1,000
⚙️ Scenario 3 — Aggressive Strategy
Higher mining difficulty, scaling early
💸 Max Cost: $3,700
📈 Today, Satoshi’s 1M BTC = ~$120B
That's a ~3,243,000x ROI on electricity spent. 😳
💡 Fun Fact: Ripple CTO David Schwartz mined 250 BTC… and sold them at $30 each. 🥲
