Series: How do I Add a Second CK-Box to my Mining Farm?
This completes the 4 part series on mining Nervos CKB with a CK-BOX.
Let’s continue our series by adding a second Nervos CK-BOX. While waiting on the box, I purchased some new equipment. In order to run two boxes, I added to my list the following:
Total - $734.19
Total Investment to Date: $1608.03
Please see the introduction article on mining with Nervos CKB below:
New Parts Added:
I opened the box to inspect and of course Goldshell does a great job packing and sending the device. I have zero complaints with shipping and delivery.
The new device now comes with wireless access in addition to Ethernet support.
After unboxing and reconfiguring miners to include the NETGEAR switch, I now have the following configuration:
I will begin by browsing to the following: https://find.goldshell.com to login to the console. For directions on how to do this, see below:
Your second miner will show up on the Network.
I recently changed pools to Poolin. You can setup an account in minutes. Next, click settings on each miner and add the applicable pool. After you click Settings, click Add.
Select the appropriate pool you want and click Apply. Repeat this process for each miner you add to the mining farm.
I now have 2 workers mining Nervos CKB.
Let’s get down to business. I just added the second box. I have been mining since 10-27-2021. I have earned the following CKB:
4000 CKB in 23 days on 1 CK-BOX.
At the current price (11-19-2021:21:00) of .02636543, I have made $105.46 US dollars. Now add roughly .60 cents a day in electricity and you can subtract about 14.00. You now have $91.46 US. Last but not least, you have to factor in taxes since Mining counts as income in the United States and you now can subtract the percentage based on the table below:
I highly recommend Koinly.io for managing your crypto taxes. It connects to all the exchanges via API or import to track your Crypto mining and trades.
Here is an example of what a daily drop to my wallet looks like from mining.
