Post-Halving: Profitability Hits a Record Low at $48 per PH/s

A year after the latest block reward reduction, hashprice dropped to $48 per PH/s, ranking among the lowest figures in several years. According to statistics, numerous mining businesses struggle with overhead, as electricity bills keep climbing. The volatility of digital asset valuations compounds these difficulties.

Industry analysts report a 12% rise in maintenance costs for mining hardware compared to the prior half-year. Large-scale operators with access to cheaper power can remain profitable, but smaller firms face rising threats. In certain regions, smaller farms have already closed down due to mounting financial pressure.

Experts foresee that embracing new ASIC designs, cost management, and diversified operations are the main survival tactics going forward. Many operators are also exploring alternative cryptocurrencies to maintain viability.
