Frequently Asked Questions

Bitcoin mining can still be profitable when a miner's daily revenue exceeds its power cost, but that margin changes daily and is never guaranteed. At the September 6, 2026 snapshot, revenue was about $0.040 per TH/s per day, while a 14.5 J/TH miner used about $0.024 per TH/s per day in power at $0.07/kWh. Check today's numbers in our profitability calculator.

The Whatsminer M70, M70S, and M73 are among the top tier ASIC miners in the industry. The air cooled M70S delivers 264 TH/s at 13.5 J/TH, the air cooled M70 delivers up to 242 TH/s at about 14.5 J/TH, and the hydro cooled M73 delivers up to 526 TH/s.
