S19 XP and S19 Pro Profit Falls to $0.088 and $0.067 kWh, Growing Unprofitability

The Miner Mag experts revealed that earnings for popular ASIC models, such as Antminer S19 XP and S19 Pro, have dropped to $0.088 and $0.067 kWh, respectively. If electricity costs exceed those rates, miners risk operating at a loss.

One reason cited is increased network difficulty combined with a BTC price that has not returned to previous peaks. Consequently, older machines are losing ground against newer devices with lower J/TH ratios. Observers note that operators in higher-tariff regions may shut down or relocate hardware to cheaper locales.

This trend underscores the importance of technical upgrades and strategic site selection for maintaining profitability.
