That’s not a “rig”, that is 11 “rigs” or more. Assuming 300 watts each, which is really low given that’s just one video card at full power, it would be $665 per month (28 cents/kwh in MA). For three years, that would be $18k. Or, maybe they consume 600 watts each for 1.5 years.
Good for that guy. He was middle school facilities staff, which means he was paid peanuts. Might as well supplement that shit job with a mining operation.
I have a couple crypto miners in my office, disguised as a server. They don’t make much but it’s a nice little bonus. Plus they heat the office in the winter. Highly recommended.

Pffft, what an amateur. Everyone knows you hide the mining rig in the server room.
