You're assuming that burst stays at the same price.. I really think that once a few key projects are finished.. Burst > $0.01
At which point, granted there will be more miners but it'll quickly pay for itself.
Like playing the lottery... Fact is Burst doesn't have volume right now and it doesn't seem to be growing (besides network hash rate, which isn't a good thing). The only reason the price is at what it is is because miners are all holding hands and not selling. That is pretty impressive in a crypto by virtue alone, but doesn't mean the price will rise.
There are prospects of price boom, but no evidence.
The cost to mine only the equipment, because mining is efficient, without wasting energy.
Maybe can reach 500
The community seems excited, this topic has surpassed 1,000 pages

i suspect price boom will take months to happen when reward is low. Or developer release killer feature (e.g storage function) as per OP
Technological RoadMap
Advanced transactions(escrow, subscription, reserve funds then transfer not yet known portion later)(some done)
BurstId authentication system
Allow linking BurstId to burst account for transfers with spending limits.
DHT for off-chain services
Off-chain encrypted messaging and voip between burstid accounts
File storage (disclaimer: still figuring out a good way to do this. this will take a while.)Not sure whether burst will survive long enough to see this happen
