GoMining: From 5.96 to 10.16 TH and Why Efficiency Became My Priority
From 5.96 to 10.16 TH — Why I Stopped Chasing More Mining Power
My GoMining strategy did not remain the same over time. At first I focused mainly on increasing productive capacity. Today my priority is making the capacity I already own more efficient.
When I started testing GoMining, my mining farm had approximately 5.96 TH.
I later upgraded the farm, bringing productive capacity into the 10 TH range.
In my latest snapshot, the setup had reached approximately 10.16 TH, spread across two Digital Miners, with an efficiency of 15 W/TH.
Building production that is economically efficient is much harder.
My mining farm today
The first phase: increasing productive capacity
At the beginning, the logic was intuitive: more TH meant more mining capacity.
This phase was useful because it gave me a productive base large enough to observe the system with more meaningful data.
But increasing mining capacity also made the other side of the equation much clearer: maintenance.
More TH also means more costs
Every new unit of mining capacity increases productive potential.
But it also increases the cost required to keep that capacity operating.
This made me realize that a strategy based simply on:
was incomplete.
The real relationship also had to include efficiency:
The strategy changed
From that point, I stopped treating new TH purchases as the automatic priority.
I started directing capital and part of the farm's production toward reducing costs.
BTC production started feeding the farm itself
An important step came when I decided not to treat all mined BTC as something to accumulate immediately.
About $42 in BTC, built from the existing balance plus new monthly production, was used to acquire GOMINING.
The documented conversion of 0.00066718 BTC generated approximately 143.816 GOMINING.
The purpose was not to speculate on the token price.
It was to use value produced by the miner to reduce the miner's own operating costs.
The discount became the new central metric
This strategy changed the maintenance discount significantly.
After the BTC conversion, the total discount reached approximately 17.53%.
From that point, the objective was no longer buying more mining power immediately.
It was moving the farm progressively closer to the 20% level.
WeWard proved the system can also be fed from outside
Another step was even more important for the Digital Ecosystems Method.
On August 4, 2026, I received my first real payment from WeWard: €10.
That capital was then reinvested into GoMining, purchasing approximately 39 GOMINING.
After this operation, the total maintenance discount reached approximately 19.48% in the latest snapshot.
This was the first real example of a free Web2 ecosystem directly improving the efficiency of a productive Web3 ecosystem.
Why I currently reinvest in GOMINING instead of TH
GoMining allows reinvestment toward additional productive capacity or toward GOMINING.
In this phase, I deliberately chose GOMINING.
This can look counterintuitive: I am temporarily giving up faster growth in mining power.
But the objective is different.
Only after that do I increase it again.
Why I am not buying new TH yet
Today I already have a productive base that I consider sufficient for this phase.
Buying more TH would also increase the amount of GOMINING required to maintain the discount level I have already achieved.
For that reason, expansion is currently paused until the system satisfies specific economic conditions.
Those conditions are the subject of the next lesson.
The real evolution was not simply from 5.96 to 10.16 TH
That was only the increase in productive capacity.
The most important evolution was strategic:
Today I no longer measure progress only by how many TH I own.
I also measure how much capital I have recovered, how much I have reduced costs and how close the system is to funding its own future growth.
