PANews February 3 News, according to Antpool data, recently Bitcoin prices have fallen to around $78,500, causing the vast majority of Bitcoin miners to be in a loss. Only the latest Antminer S23 series miners (such as Antminer S23 Hydro) remain profitable, with a daily profit of approximately $18.53 per unit. Older models like the Antminer S21 series have a daily profit of only $0.12, and Whatsminer M63S even incurs a daily loss of $0.47. Despite the North American cold snap reducing hash rate, the global Bitcoin network hash rate remains near record highs, with an average monthly hash rate of 927.7 EH/s in January. Miner earnings continue to decline, and some mining companies have shifted toward high-performance computing (HPC) and artificial intelligence services to diversify risk. Additionally, the stock prices of major listed mining companies have also been affected, with MARA Holdings down 2.5%, Cleanspark down 6%, and HIVE Digital down 10%.
Earlier reports, Shen Yu: When Bitcoin drops to $75,000, 23.3W/T miners will reach shutdown price.
