Independent data on what mining actually costs and returns. Retailers recommend the machines they sell and pools recommend themselves; the figures here apply the same assumptions to every option, and we show you where each number came from.

A rising retarget makes mining harder and reduces revenue per unit of hashrate. Figures are estimates, not a forecast of future returns.

Revenue is derived from network difficulty and block reward, not from a provider's advertised return. Every live figure on this page carries its source and the time it was fetched. Profitability changes with difficulty and price, and past figures do not predict future returns.

Revenue assumes a 1% pool fee at current price and difficulty, before electricity. Break-even is the highest rate per kWh at which the machine still covers its power cost. Specifications are manufacturer figures; hardware prices are not included because we do not yet publish a verified retailer feed.
Which pools are actually finding blocks, how healthy those blocks are, and — the part other comparisons skip — which pools publish their fees at all. Several of the largest do not.
