| 89 | |||
| 90 | A public calculator should ask for: | ||
| 91 | |||
| 92 | - miner hashrate and unit; | ||
| 93 | - power draw in watts; | ||
| 94 | - electricity price per kWh; | ||
| 95 | - pool fee percent; | ||
| 96 | - optional BTF price; | ||
| 97 | - either current Bitflash difficulty or current network hashrate. | ||
| 98 | |||
| 99 | The output should separate: | ||
| 100 | |||
| 101 | - estimated BTF per day; | ||
| 102 | - estimated gross fiat revenue, if a manual price was provided; | ||
| 103 | - electricity cost; | ||
| 104 | - net profit/loss; | ||
| 105 | - the difficulty/hashrate assumptions used. | ||
| 106 | |||
| 107 | Never present the fiat number as a market quote unless it comes from a real | ||
| 108 | public market. Before that exists, label it as a manual scenario. | ||
