Bitcoin mining hardware qualifies for 100% bonus depreciation in the first year, providing significant tax advantages. Consult your tax advisor for specifics.
How are mining profits distributed?
Profits depend on your program. Managed mining distributions are made according to your contract terms. Hosted machines generate revenue directly to your mining pool.
How do payouts work?
We settle power costs and fees monthly, then send your Bitcoin share directly to your wallet. Full accounting provided.
