Where you host your miner matters just as much as what you buy. This guide walks through the OneMiners hosting sites, shows where to find the live hosting rates and compares two miners to show how much the location changes your electricity cost.
The hosting sites
OneMiners offers hosting in several countries, including Nigeria, Ethiopia, Dubai, the USA, Finland and Norway. The hosting page lists each site with its starting rate. Rates there are a guide: the live rate for your order is shown at checkout.
What to compare for each site
- Electricity rate per kilowatt-hour, which drives your running cost.
- Connectivity, meaning how well the site is connected.
- Uptime, meaning how reliably it stays online.
Sites marked full cannot take new miners. You choose your site during checkout; see how to buy a miner.
Why high-power miners care most about location
Electricity is a bigger part of the bill for a power-hungry machine, so a cheaper site saves more.
The video compares two Antminer models using the OneMiners calculator at starting rates:
| Miner | Power use | Estimated electricity saving, Nigeria vs USA |
|---|---|---|
| Antminer S21e XP Hyd | 11,180 W | about $1,860 per year |
| Antminer Z15 Pro | 2,849 W | about $474 per year |
The S21e XP Hyd, a high-power miner, saves the most from low-cost hosting. The Z15 Pro, a low-power miner, sees a smaller difference.
The takeaway
Pick your miner and your hosting site together. A cheaper site helps every miner, and it helps big miners most. The video also points out low-cost hosting options in Nigeria and the USA with no service fees.
Lock in your electricity cost
Once your miner is hosted, you can pay for power in advance at a lower fixed rate. Read how to pay for mining electricity with Prepaid Energy.
