About — Mining Compass

What This Site Is

Mining Compass is an independent resource for anyone researching Bitcoin cloud mining through GoMining. We publish a free ROI calculator using GoMining's publicly documented rates, together with guides and reviews to help you make an informed decision.

We are not GoMining. We are an independent third party that happens to participate in their referral program — which is how this site stays free.

Our Principles

📊

Transparent math. Every calculation uses GoMining's published rates. Assumptions are shown in the cost breakdown. Nothing is hidden.

💰

Honest funding. We earn a commission when you use code FI6QWTV on your first purchase. That commission is how this site is funded — we don't charge for access, we don't sell your data, and we don't run paid placements.

🔍

Independent research. Our guides and reviews are written from our own investigation. We don't accept payment for positive coverage.

📝

No financial advice. Nothing on this site is financial advice. Cryptocurrency mining carries risk. Past returns don't guarantee future performance. Always do your own research and consult a professional where appropriate.

Affiliate Disclosure

Mining Compass participates in the GoMining affiliate referral program. When a visitor uses referral code FI6QWTV at checkout, GoMining pays us a commission on the first purchase. This does not affect the price you pay — the +5% bonus mining power is applied at no extra cost to you.

We only recommend tools we have researched ourselves. Our referral participation does not influence our calculator math, our guide content, or our review ratings.

Calculator Rates (as used on this site)

The calculator uses the following published GoMining rates:

Mining reward rate: 25 satoshis per TH/s per day (approx. 0.00000025 BTC/TH/s/day)
Electricity cost: 48% of gross reward
Service fee: 23% of gross reward
Maintenance discount: up to 6% based on TH/s (higher TH = higher discount)
BTC price: Fetched live from CoinGecko every 60 seconds

These rates are consistent with GoMining's publicly documented pricing. If GoMining changes their rates, we update the calculator accordingly. The last rate update was September 2026.

Why We Built This

When we started researching Bitcoin cloud mining, we found most calculators were either overly optimistic, hid their assumptions, or didn't show the full cost breakdown. We wanted a tool that showed the real numbers — gross reward, electricity cost, service fee, maintenance discount, and net reward — with all assumptions visible.

The calculator is free. The guides are free. We don't ask for your email. The only way this site makes money is through the GoMining referral program, and only when you choose to use our code.
