Mining Calculator

Hardware cost vs Electricity. Is it worth it?

Ready
How It Works: Calculate cryptocurrency mining profitability by comparing revenue from block rewards against electricity costs. Uses live network difficulty and price data.

Key Inputs:
  • Coin: Bitcoin or Ethereum Classic (different algorithms and rewards).
  • Hashrate: Your mining hardware's processing power (TH/s for BTC, MH/s for ETC).
  • Power: Electricity consumption in watts.
  • Cost/kWh: Your local electricity rate.
  • Hardware Cost: Initial investment in mining equipment.


Formula:
  • Daily Revenue: (Your Hashrate ÷ Network Difficulty) × Block Reward × Blocks/Day × Coin Price
  • Daily Cost: (Watts ÷ 1000) × 24 hours × Electricity Rate
  • Daily Profit: Revenue - Cost

Is Crypto Mining Still Profitable in 2026?

Mining cryptocurrency is an arms race. Profitability depends on three main variables: Hashrate, Power Consumption, and Electricity Cost.

ASIC vs. GPU Mining

Bitcoin (ASIC): Requires specialized hardware (ASICs) that only do one thing—mine Bitcoin. High entry cost, loud, and hot.
Altcoins (GPU): Coins like Ethereum Classic (ETC) can be mined with graphics cards. More flexible, but often less profitable than ASICs.

The Electricity Factor

If your electricity costs more than $0.15/kWh, mining is likely unprofitable unless you have the newest, most efficient hardware. Professional miners often relocate to areas with cheap renewable energy to stay competitive.

Network Difficulty

As more people mine, the network difficulty increases, meaning you earn less crypto for the same amount of work. This calculator (where possible) pulls live Difficulty data to give you a realistic estimate.
