How Crypto Mining Works
Miners compete to solve a cryptographic puzzle. The winner adds the next block to the blockchain and earns the block reward plus transaction fees. Your share of the reward is proportional to your hashrate relative to the total network hashrate.
Mining profitability depends on the coin price, your hardware efficiency (hashrate per watt), and electricity cost. As more miners join, difficulty increases and individual earnings shrink. Always check break-even electricity cost before investing in hardware.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is mining profitability calculated?
Daily coins = (Your hashrate ÷ Network hashrate) × Blocks per day × Block reward × (1 − Pool fee). Revenue = Daily coins × Coin price. Profit = Revenue − Electricity cost.
What is a good electricity price for crypto mining?
Below $0.07/kWh is ideal for Bitcoin mining. At $0.10/kWh, most modern ASICs remain profitable at current BTC prices. Above $0.15/kWh, profitability becomes marginal.
Is Bitcoin mining still profitable in 2026?
It depends on your electricity cost and hardware. With a modern ASIC at $0.07–$0.10/kWh, Bitcoin mining remains profitable. The April 2024 halving reduced the block reward to 3.125 BTC, requiring higher BTC prices or cheaper power to maintain margins.
What is break-even electricity cost?
The electricity price at which mining profit = 0. If your actual electricity cost is below this number, mining is profitable. Use the calculator above to find your break-even.
Can I mine Monero (XMR) with a CPU?
Yes — Monero uses the RandomX algorithm specifically designed to be CPU-friendly and ASIC-resistant. A modern CPU (Ryzen 9, Intel Core i9) achieves 10–20 KH/s.
