Electricity here in Sweden is at 0.043 EUR/kWh. My machine consumes approx 1kW.
It does not work out at all so far, since the software insists on crashing twice a day. : p I need to research better tools.
The mining output is zero, so the cost mathematically speaking is infinite per Ether. But I might post news on my progress, if any.

Cool - much cheaper than here. Have you tried NiceHash? That worked for me.

No, it's not; we use equal energy to extract any kind of commodity, be it gold, oil or wood. If people are mining, that just means that energy is cheaper than the bitcoin - hence, profit.

Today, I actually decided to revisit the beans after a break of 3 years.......don't know why, but I just did.
And had absolutely no joy getting them to work with either Windows10, IOS or Android to update the Day 1 firmware to the latest, using the standard BeanLoaders. I remembered when I first played with these many years back that I had connected to them using a TinyUSB, but couldn't remember how or any of the commands. This was necessary because the Dev team didn't have anything other than IOS support at the time.
Fortunately, I had put it all in an article when I was experimenting all those years back.....LightBlue Beans - Magic Beans and no beans[talk]?
Tomorrow, if I can find some jumper wires, I am going to see if I can get these puppies blinking...finger's crossed!

Worse is when I google how to do something and one of the top hits is my own article!
I need to start writing short tips on web development, as I'm constantly forgetting and relearning things. Either that or pay a shrink a few thousand dollars to adjust my psyche, which clearly wants to forget everything I learn about web development (that means YOU, Javascript / HTML / CSS / MVC/MVM).

I honestly though that was what tips and tricks was for, I started putting in 1-2 liners that I would refer back to. Alas it turned into a mini article arena where my simple tips are an embarrassment.
I refer back to my pivot article regularly, also many others that are bookmarked.

You realise they probably log connections to them and will add it to their list of sites to attack.
(Similar to the nugget that it's often better not to click unsubscribe to unsolicited email - better to just mark as spam.)
Now they know somebody is home -> and is worried -> hence they might have something to protect.

Not worried...just annoyed. They've been trying for 3 weeks and haven't succeeded! It looks like I need to setup another honeypot to help them along!

No PTR records for the IP address?
How about a tracert? That should at least give you a clue as to the ISP they're using.

 Thanks Richard! tracert did the trick...it appears to originate in Russia.
Alarmingly, further digging revealed that this hacker (at least this particular IP address) had been hitting my server almost daily for over three weeks. One possibly telling detail is that the early attempts were against an email username, the rest were mostly against the domain name.
I've denied access based on that IP address as a short term fix...the server is due for migration to Server 2016 later this month (currently 2008r2) so hopefully will come with better dynamic blocking features. My deny list is rather large as I wrote a script a long time ago to deny the entire country of China!

I know that feeling - my email still has a rule I set up a decade ago sending anything from the .ru domain direct to the bin!

An IP address might not be bound to a domain. But you can try a WHOIS query using a web service or the whois command line utility on a Linux system.

It's only mugging if it's taken by force, otherwise it's decaffeination.

Would there be grounds for arrest? And if so would it be a pot bust?

This is the first time I've not been able to get information from a reverse lookup...after trying 4 different services. Edit: Thanks to Richard...tracert shows it to be Russian.
