What is mining hosting?

Mining hosting, or colocation, is paying a facility to run your machines: it supplies the power, cooling, network and staff, and you own the hardware and the bitcoin.

How it works

Contracts are usually priced per kilowatt-hour consumed, sometimes with a setup fee or a share of revenue. The terms that matter are the all-in power rate, uptime commitments, who pays during curtailment and how repairs are handled.

Why it matters

It lets a miner run hardware without building a site, and lets a site owner sell power at a better price than the grid pays.
