MicroBT Whatsminer M60S vs Bitmain Antminer S19k Pro
The MicroBT Whatsminer M60S is 22% more efficient per TH, which is what decides the break-even electricity price below. Both machines are modelled with identical assumptions and your own rate.

Both machines assume a 1% pool fee at the current BTC price and network difficulty, running continuously. A highlighted figure is the better of the two on that measure — marked only where one genuinely is better, not on hashrate, power or revenue, which reflect the size of the machine rather than its quality. Highlighting is not a recommendation, and no manufacturer pays for placement here. Your rate is saved in this browser and applies across the site.
Our view
MicroBT Whatsminer M60S
186 TH/s · 3,348 W · 18.0 W/TH
A mid-tier air-cooled machine at 18 W/TH. Competent rather than leading: it needs meaningfully cheaper power than an S21 Pro to return the same margin.
Bitmain Antminer S19k Pro
120 TH/s · 2,760 W · 23.0 W/TH
A previous-generation machine at 23 W/TH. Only viable on genuinely cheap power, and the first to fall below break-even when difficulty rises. Buy on price per terahash, not on specification.
These are editorial judgements, not paid placements. Neither manufacturer has any influence over the ordering or the verdicts, and no purchase links on this page are affiliate links. Purchase price, warranty and availability are excluded because we do not yet publish a verified retailer feed — a comparison that invented them would be worse than one that omits them.
