Who can actually do this

  • GPU rental: a data-center grade site, fiber, serious cooling, and customers who expect uptime SLAs. You only earn when someone books.
  • Mining: power and ventilation. No customers to find. The network pays a reward every block (about every 10 minutes), and you can switch off when power gets pricey.
