No need to earn yield when your money isn't being dilluted.
With yield, there's risk. In this instance there is counterparty risk. You're trusting a third-party to deliver the sats, manage their business properly, energy prices remaining low, not abscond with the ASIC, etc.
Compass Mining is one such example of a hosted miner who went under.
Just KISS and stack sats into cold storage.
