Well someone has to buy hardware and pay for electricity to run the computers.

Computational power is not free, unless you're running a botnet or something.

And they get in return... ?

A warm fuzzy feeling for having paid money for hardware and electricity so someone else can put something on a blockch-- whoops, I mean a "Tangle."
