From 1 TH to 5 PH: GoMining now competes with ASIC hosters on price — while offering far more flexibility

GoMining’s reduced 12 W/TH prices put its digital miners into direct competition with traditional ASIC hosting.

The purchase price per TH is now close to — and in some comparisons below — current hosted ASIC offers.

The difference is that GoMining does not require the buyer to commit to one specific machine, one fixed efficiency level or one large minimum order.

I compared the current prices using the four numbers that matter most:

- Purchase price per TH
- Energy efficiency
- Operating cost per TH per year
- Minimum investment required to access the offer

Mining revenue is not included because BTC price, hashprice and network difficulty affect every option.

## GoMining’s current prices

Current 12 W/TH prices shown in the app include:

- 1 TH: $16.99
- 512 TH: $8,143.99 — $15.91 per TH
- 5,000 TH: approximately $77,150 — $15.43 per TH

This covers everything from a small entry position to a 5 PH allocation.

GoMining’s operating costs consist of:

- Electricity: $0.05/kWh
- Service: $0.0089 per TH per day

At 12 W/TH, that equals:

- Electricity: $5.26 per TH/year
- Service: $3.25 per TH/year
- Total: $8.50 per TH/year

That is the baseline before any maintenance discounts.

## Comparison with hosted ASIC offers

| Provider | What you buy | Efficiency | Purchase price/TH | Operating cost/TH/year | Required investment |
|---|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|
| GoMining | 512 TH digital miner | 12 W/TH | $15.91 | $8.50 | $8,143.99 |
| GoMining | 5,000 TH digital miner | 12 W/TH | $15.43 | $8.50 | About $77,150 |
| Simple Mining | S21j XP Hydro, 495 TH | 12 W/TH | $19.70 | $8.41 | $9,750 |
| Blockware | 10× S21 XP, about 2,700 TH | 13.5 W/TH | $15.00 | $8.28 | About $40,500 |
| Bitkern | S21 XP, 270 TH | 13.5 W/TH | $13.33 | $7.69–$8.16 | $3,600 |

Possible pool fees, repair costs, deposits, downtime and taxes are not included where they are not already covered by the provider.

## One modern ASIC versus 512 TH at GoMining

Simple Mining’s S21j XP Hydro is the closest direct comparison:

- 495 TH
- 12 W/TH
- $9,750
- $19.70 per TH
- Approximately $8.41 per TH/year to operate

GoMining offers:

- 512 TH
- The same 12 W/TH efficiency
- $8,143.99
- $15.91 per TH
- Approximately $8.50 per TH/year to operate

The yearly operating cost is almost identical.

The difference is the purchase price.

GoMining is around 19% cheaper per TH upfront and costs roughly $1,600 less in total, while providing slightly more hashrate.

There is no large convenience premium hidden in the purchase price anymore.

## Blockware: close pricing, but a ten-machine minimum

Blockware’s promotion offers:

- S21 XP miners
- 270 TH per machine
- 13.5 W/TH
- $15 per TH
- $0.07/kWh
- Minimum order of ten machines

The purchase price is slightly below GoMining’s:

- Blockware: $15.00/TH
- GoMining at 512 TH: $15.91/TH
- GoMining at 5,000 TH: $15.43/TH

At the larger GoMining tier, the gap is only $0.43 per TH.

Blockware requires an order of roughly 2.7 PH and approximately $40,500 to access its promotional price. GoMining provides 12 W/TH instead of 13.5 W/TH and allows the investor to choose a much smaller or larger allocation.

That makes GoMining competitive even against pricing normally tied to multi-machine orders.

## Bitkern: the strongest raw-cost offer

Bitkern currently lists a limited S21 XP offer with:

- 270 TH
- 13.5 W/TH
- $3,600
- $13.33 per TH
- Hosting displayed between $0.065 and $0.069/kWh depending on the applicable tariff

On pure acquisition and operating cost, Bitkern wins this comparison.

But the investor must buy one complete 270 TH machine, and its 13.5 W/TH efficiency is fixed by the hardware.

GoMining is more expensive than this particular offer, but provides:

- Better efficiency at 12 W/TH
- Entry from 1 TH
- Freely selectable position size
- Power upgrades
- Efficiency upgrades
- Marketplace resale
- No
