Scenario model, not a prediction. Assumptions: electricity $0.05/kWh, service $0.0089/TH/day (both fixed). Token discount reduces total maintenance (power + service). Maintenance is paid daily from BTC yield; efficiency upgrades are funded from the previously accumulated BTC stack when needed. Halving April 2028.
