The larger it is, the less likely your mining set up is actually all that solid.

The best miners are doing so with near free electricity, either with things like subsidized solar, or energy acquired from things like nat gas that'd otherwise get flared, or hydroelectric power that exists too far from civilization to have a demand otherwise.

If your miner is plugged into the grid, you're probably doing it wrong.
