Anything that is consumer based is going to be expensive. My first entrance into this was a $700 computer called a Coinmine that Pomp was shilling back in the way.

S9's are the way to go for $100 from us or less from other people. Repurposing industrial miners to produce heat and keeping 100% of the sats is a good move. When you get a heatbit, you are paying for something that looks nice, has a nice UI and is easier to setup. S9s aren't that hard but they're not pretty and take a little bit of learning to get setup
