Hi Reade, electricity prices is definitely something to consider when deciding when to chop with Salad.

We have a tool, the network demand monitor, that reports current demand levels and average earnings for GPUs on the network. I recommend using this to make informed decisions about when Chopping is right for you and your circumstance.

We understand sometimes the maths just doesn't work out, and we always tell our Chefs to come back to the chopping board when it's right for them.

Thank you for giving us a go, and we hope to see you stick around on our platform. We really appreciate all the time and effort you've spent with us.

Happy Chopping!

Very 'scammy'

Very 'scammy' - WILL allow for ransomware/malware to be EASILY added to your computer without your knowledge by allowing bypass of firewall protection. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. NOT WORTH IT.
