Soaring hash rate, high electricity costs and BTC price hovering under $20,000 for months is complicating matters for Bitcoin miners. October witnessed a surge in Bitcoin’s (BTC) hash rate which is pushing the metric to a new high of 245 Exahashes per second. These changes led to a sharp decrease in the hash price, resulting in a drop in the profit margins for BTC miners reaching a low of $66.8 USD/PH (per one quadrillion hashes per second) on Oct. 24, 2022.According to Luxor Technologies, “hashprice” is the revenue BTC miners earn per unit of hash rate, which is the total computational....
