Bitcoin mining works at thin margins as long as financing is cheap. A rig that nets $5/day after hosting can't survive 7% APR equipment financing. The same rig on 0% APR for 14 months is a different business.
Most "mining doesn't work at these prices" content is implicitly assuming high cost of capital.
