Use this calculator to estimate how much you can earn from farming the Chia cryptocurrency (XCH)[1] on the Chia Network. Input the number of plots (hard disk space) that you would like to dedicate, and the calculator will give you an overview of your estimated earnings and suggested hardware.

Plots
Including your space
The simplified view is based on a snapshot of today's price and a constant total network space.
Use the advanced tab to simulate earnings over time with netspace growth taken into account.
The above estimates are based on the statistically expected yield, but real-world returns will vary, especially over shorter time periods. Your "luck" will play into how many blocks of 1 XCH you end up actually winning. Joining a pool will remove most of the luck factor and the calculated earnings will be more accurate.

Do not view the default projected netspace growth below as a definite prediction of the future. Please tweak the values and use your own judgement before making any purchasing decisions of plotting and farming hardware.
The plot space below is added to the total network space.

Due to increases in hard drive prices and supply shortages, the network growth will need to stagnate at some point. Use the inputs above to set the number of days exponential growth will continue, and the linear rate that growth will stabilize to.
