afaikt it'll average 0.1BTC per month at the current difficulty, so if you have cheap electricity ....
Interesting but it doesn't tell me what's inside. At $4500 and
1BTC/yr, _today_, it doesn't see like a great investment, even with cheap electricity. It could be an FPGA at that price. ;-)
Funny that it has come down to the cost of the electricity to run it. I wonder if this will become the driving force to design new fab processes that optimize the operational cost for bitcoin?
How many electrons does it take to generate a new bitcoin in the theoretical limit?

In the theroretical limit, assuming a fair market, as many as you can buy for one bitcoin, because difficulty scales with participation.
