The 4 Best ASIC Miners For Beginners

Bitcoin mining or even crypto mining, in general, is so expensive right now. It's very difficult for beginners to get into the space. Most people don't have that kind of money to invest in mining equipment. I’ll be going over the best miners for beginners with a small price tag. Some of these miners are even on websites like Amazon.

Antminer S9

The Antminer S9 has to be one of the best beginner miners out there. It is a great miner despite its old model age and can mine profitably as long as your electric cost is low in your area. With a low electric cost, you can expect to get your ROI (return on investment) in under 3 years if Bitcoin stays the same price. If Bitcoin goes up while mining, expect sooner. I would highly recommend this miner as a beginner. Make sure to do your research about your electricity costs, on the miner itself, and if you have the budget. You can get this miner, its PSU, and even the power cord for under $1000 right on Amazon. Link to check it out here>https://amzn.to/3H8zAFJ

Antminer L3

The Antminer L3 is an improved version of the Antminer S9. It costs around $500–$750 more than the S9 but gives you way more profits and even a faster ROI. I could find an L3 that came with the PSU and power cord on amazon but you could pay for them separately, but you would only save around $50 if you buy the equipment at the right places. You could expect to get your money back and break even in around 1–2 years depending on the local electric cost. You can get the L3 here>https://amzn.to/3o1iTEH

Ebit E10

This is the cheapest miner on the list, but it's one of those miners that require a very low electricity cost. If yours is relatively high I would recommend skipping this one. The Ebit E10 can get you an ROI under 2 years and is very cheap. This will not make you serious money but it's a good sustainable side income generator for when you need it. You can’t get this miner on Amazon, but it's available on sites like eBay.

Halong DragonMint T1

This is the last miner on the list. I know I said this a million times but you need low electric cost to make this miner profitable. Otherwise, you will lose money! There really is not much to say about this miner. Besides the cool design, it's very similar to the Ebit E10. You can buy this miner on websites like eBay and sometimes even Amazon. This is the last one in stock. >https://amzn.to/3u598cr

Conclusion

As you could tell from the article, most of these miners rely on you living in a low electricity cost area. If you don’t then I would recommend staying away from mining interiorly. Other options could be buying crypto for you to hold. I also recommend doing your research. Understand how everything works on your miner before buying it. Thank you so much for reading this blog.
