Tahun Mencabar untuk Bitcoin Pelombong kerana Lebih Sedikit Pelantar Perlombongan BTC Menguntungkan pada Harga Semasa

Bitcoin miners have had a challenging year as the network’s mining difficulty reached an all-time high and the spot market price of bitcoin dropped below the cost of production. Currently, with electricity costs at $0.07 per kilowatt-hour (kWh), only 18 application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) bitcoin mining rigs are able to turn a profit at current prices.

Model ASIC SHA256 Semasa Tidak Menguntungkan pada $0.12 setiap kWj, Hanya Dua Peranti Menguntungkan pada $0.10 setiap kWj

Pada Disember 31, 2022, statistik tunjukkan itu bitcoin’s hash rate is hovering above the 300 exahash per second (EH/s) range after reaching a low on December 30 at 235 EH/s. Additionally, data from macromicro.me indicates that the current cost of production ($16,577) is nearly equal to bitcoin’s current spot market value ($16,572).

Macromicro.me calculates the cost of production by “observing consumption of electricity and daily issuance of bitcoin, as provided by Cambridge University.” The Cambridge Bitcoin Electricity Consumption Index (CBECI) shows BTC's penggunaan tahunan pada 31 Disember 2022, ialah 84.74 terawatt sejam (TWj). Dengan kesukaran melombong semasa pada 35.36 trilion dan semasa BTC harga pada $16,572 seunit, sebilangan besar mesin perlombongan ASIC tidak menguntungkan.

Sebagai contoh, pada $0.12 setiap kWj, tiada model SHA256 ASIC semasa yang menguntungkan dengan kos elektrik pada kadar tersebut. Pada $0.10 setiap kWj, dua peranti ASIC menguntungkan dan boleh membuat keuntungan $1.14-$2.51 sehari. Dua mesin teratas yang masih boleh untung pada $0.10 setiap kWj termasuk Antminer S19 XP Hyd milik Bitmain. dengan 255 terahash sesaat (TH/s) dan Bitmain's Antminer S19 XP dengan 140 TH/s.

18 Pelantar Perlombongan ASIC Menguntungkan pada $0.07 setiap kWj, Algoritma Konsensus Alternatif Melihat Keuntungan yang Lebih Baik

At $0.08 per kWh, 13 different ASIC bitcoin mining machines can capture profits between $0.13-$5.08 per day. The machine with the lowest profits at $0.08 per kWh is Bitmain’s Antminer S19j Pro with 100 TH/s. At $0.07 per kWh, another five machines are added to the profitable machine list with a total of 18 ASIC mining rigs in profit.

At the $0.07 per kWh value, a bitcoin miner can make between $0.23 per day to $6.35 per day, depending on the machine used. Bitmain’s Antminer S19 XP Hyd. with 255 TH/s and $0.07 per kWh in electrical costs will produce an estimated profit of around $6.35 every 24 hours.

While SHA256 bitcoin mining machines are seeing fewer profits than they were six months ago, machines that mine alternative consensus algorithms see better profits. The top three consensus algorithms today, in terms of profit, include Kadena, Eaglesong, Scrypt, and Handshake.
