Bitcoin mining profitability and hashprice calculator

Test a mining setup against network and price assumptions. Results are models—not promises—and exclude taxes, financing and many operating costs.

Monthly margin under price scenarios

Price scenarios change revenue, while the entered electricity cost stays fixed. Difficulty, fees and uptime can also move.

Mining revenue is a share of network work

A miner’s expected share of block rewards roughly follows its share of network hashrate. Actual results are lumpy: a pool smooths payouts across miners, while solo mining can wait a very long time for a block.

Efficiency links hashrate to electricity

Two machines with the same TH/s can have different power draw. Divide watts by TH/s to compare joules per terahash. Lower is more efficient, but purchase price, repair rate, cooling and curtailment still matter.

Costs omitted from this model

Capital	Machine, transformer, rack, building and financing
Operations	Cooling, labor, repairs, insurance and networking
Market	Pool payout method, exchange spread and conversion costs
Policy	Taxes, demand charges, permits and curtailment rules

Hashprice is not fixed

Bitcoin price, subsidy, transaction fees and network difficulty all affect revenue per unit of hashrate. Treat every output as a scenario, not a quote.

How Bitcoin.now handles tool data

Calculated values

Deterministic tools state their assumptions beside the result. They do not present a model as an executable quote.

Observed values

External observations use read-only public data, retain the latest valid cache, and show freshness when a source is delayed.

Safety boundary

No tool trades, broadcasts, connects a wallet, stores a secret, or gives personal financial advice.

Using bitcoin mining profitability and hashprice calculator responsibly

What is hashprice?

Hashprice expresses expected mining revenue per unit of hashrate over time. It moves with bitcoin price, the subsidy, transaction fees and network difficulty.

Does a positive margin mean the miner is profitable?

Not necessarily. The result subtracts modelled electricity from modelled revenue. Hardware cost, cooling, labor, downtime, financing and tax can turn it negative.

Why can actual pool payouts differ?

Pools use payout schemes, fee rules and settlement timing. Luck, stale shares, curtailment and machine performance can also move realized results away from expectation.

Model mining income from the numbers that actually decide it

Expected revenue is your share of network hashrate multiplied by the coins the network pays out each day. Electricity is the dominant cost. The calculator makes both explicit so a change in any input is visible in the result.

The revenue formula is short

Daily BTC ≈ (your hashrate ÷ network hashrate) × 144 blocks × (subsidy + average fees per block). At 3.125 BTC subsidy, a machine with one-millionth of the network earns roughly 0.00045 BTC a day before fees and pool cost.

Network hashrate is an estimate and moves daily.
Fees per block vary far more than the subsidy.
Pool fees of 1–4 % come off the top.

Electricity price decides survival

A machine drawing 3,000 W uses 72 kWh a day. At 5 ¢/kWh that is $3.60; at 15 ¢ it is $10.80. Miners at the high end are the first to switch off when the price falls or difficulty rises.

Use the tariff you actually pay, including delivery charges.
Add cooling and hosting where they apply.
Hardware cost and resale value sit outside the daily margin.
