ASIC Miner Hosting: How Does It Work?

Cryptocurrency mining has evolved rapidly over the past decade. Gone are the days when you could mine coins on a laptop in your bedroom. Today, serious mining requires serious hardware — and with that comes serious decisions.

If you’re running or considering an ASIC miner, one of the most important questions you’ll face is:

Should I host it at home, or partner with a datacenter?

In this blog, we’ll break down how ASIC miner hosting works, what it costs, what to expect — and why Hamus Hosting might be the partner you’re looking for.

What is ASIC miner hosting?

ASIC (Application-Specific Integrated Circuit) miners are built for one job: mining crypto — fast, efficiently, and at scale. But they also come with high energy demands, serious heat output, and constant noise. Hosting an ASIC miner means placing your hardware in a professional facility (a data center or mining farm) that is optimized for power, cooling, security, and internet connectivity — rather than running it at home.

Is ASIC hosting profitable?

This is the most asked — and most nuanced — question. Hosting can absolutely be profitable, but it depends on three factors:

Electricity cost:
Our rates range from €,14 to €0.059 per kWh, far below many residential rates in Europe.

Uptime:
A professionally hosted miner will experience near-constant uptime, which isn’t always possible at home.

Efficiency:
With optimal cooling and infrastructure, your miner can perform better and last longer.

If you’re paying €0.30+/kWh at home or struggling with downtime, professional hosting could make the difference between mining at a loss or a profit.

How much does it cost to invest and host?

Here’s a rough idea:
ASIC miner purchase (e.g. Antminer S19 for €500 or L9 for €9,900 — prices vary depending on the model).

What makes a miner profitable?

Not all mining setups are created equal. If you’re looking to maximize return on investment, here are the key factors that determine whether your ASIC miner is making or losing money.

Low power consumption per TH/s (efficiency)
High hashrate for the network being mined
Avoidable electricity prices
Uptime — 24/7 operations with monitoring = higher returns
Hosting costs that don’t eat into your earnings

Can I host ASICs at home?

Yes — but it comes with trade-offs:

Noise:
ASICs are LOUD — around 75–85 decibels (think vacuum cleaner or louder).
Heat:
They produce significant heat and need ventilation.
Power draw:
One unit may consume 3000+ watts — that’s a lot for a home setup.
Grid limitations:
In some areas, local grid capacity isn’t designed for this kind of constant load.

In short: you can — but it’s not always ideal, especially long-term.

Why host at a data center?

Here’s what you get when you host your ASICs with Hamus:

100% renewable energy
Stable, low-cost electricity pricing
Optimal cooling & airflow
24/7 uptime monitoring
No noise, no heat at home
Hands-on support when needed

For many miners, hosting is the only way to scale without the hassle.

Why our customers stay — even if we’re not the cheapest

We know there are cheaper options out there. But many of our customers choose Hamus Hosting for something more important: Security and Trust

That’s why our model focuses on:

If you’re looking to host in a location that supports long-term, sustainable, and trustworthy operations, Norway — and Hamus Hosting — are worth serious consideration.

Why Norway? And Why Hamus?

When it comes to hosting ASIC miners, location matters more than most people think. At Hamus Hosting, we chose to build our infrastructure in Norway for reasons that go beyond just electricity rates.

Abundant green energy

Norway offers one of the world’s most reliable and sustainable energy grids — powered primarily by hydropower and wind. This gives us access to clean, stable energy year-round, ideal for large-scale mining operations.

Political and regulatory stability

In a time when some countries shift regulations overnight or face power disruptions, Norway offers long-term security. For miners, that means fewer risks tied to instability, shutdowns, or unclear legislation that can jeopardize your investment.
