Why sell mining equipment?

Question

bitcoin

Why would mining equipment manufacturers sell it if they can earn more from it just by starting to mine on it?

Answer 1

During the gold rush, those who sell shovels and other services to simplify mining are the ones who consistently earn the most money.
This is also based on the fact that equipment buyers think that they get an advantage over the rest by buying equipment, but if everyone buys it, then no one will have an advantage. And equipment manufacturers in any case remain in a stable predictable gain.
