Crypto Mining Calculator

Your share of the network is the whole game

The network mints a fixed number of coins per block, and your miner earns in proportion to its share of the total hashrate. Your hashrate in TH/s divided by the network hashrate in TH/s is your slice, and that slice times the block reward times the blocks a day is your expected coins.

Nothing about the machine itself matters until it is expressed as a share - a bigger network means a smaller slice for the same machine, which is why difficulty rising is the same as your earnings falling.

Electricity is the cost that decides the verdict

A miner running at 3,000 watts for 24 hours uses 72 kWh a day. At a typical electricity price that is a real number, and it comes out of the revenue before the daily profit exists. The page computes it from the power draw and the kilowatt-hour price you enter, and prints it as its own line.

This single line is why many operations that look profitable on the coin price alone are not: the page shows the sequence - revenue, pool fee, electricity, net - so the verdict is checkable.

The pool fee and the reward assumptions are visible

Most miners run through a pool, which keeps a percentage of the reward - the page shows it as a line of its own rather than burying it. The block reward and the blocks a day are also inputs, because they change: Bitcoin pays 3.125 coins per block after the 2024 halving and will halve again around 2028, and a chain that blocks every minute behaves completely differently from one that blocks every ten.

Typing these rather than hard-coding them is a feature: the page stays honest when the network changes, instead of quietly publishing last year’s numbers.

What the page does not count

The snapshot omits hardware cost, downtime, cooling, repairs, resale value, and the tax treatment of mined coins - all real and all outside the arithmetic this page is willing to guess. It says so on the page, and it repeats that the annual figure is an upper-bound sketch, not a plan.

The result can be negative, and the page prints it as a negative number rather than rounding it to comfortable nothing. A miner that does not clear its electricity bill is the finding the page exists to make visible.

The halving is the input that moves by itself

Every revenue line here is proportional to the block reward, and the block reward only ever steps down. Bitcoin paid 50 coins a block in 2009, 6.25 after the 2020 halving, 3.125 after April 2024, and the next halving around 2028 takes it to 1.5625. Nothing about the machine changes across those steps; the revenue halves.

That is why the reward is a field rather than a constant. A page that hard-coded 6.25 would have gone on printing the last cycle of revenue for four years, and the error would look like profit rather than a bug - the opposite of the finding a mining calculator exists to deliver.

The counterexample worth running: take a miner that clears its power bill at 3.125 coins a block and halve the reward field. In almost every case the net line crosses zero, because the cost side - watts times hours times price - does not halve with it. The reward is not a detail to accept on faith; it is the single input that decides whether the same hardware earns or loses, and it moves on a schedule you can look up.
