Your miner hashrate divided by the live network hashrate from full nodes or block explorers.
Block reward × (86,400 ÷ block time) × hash share. Merge-mined Scrypt (LTC + DOGE) sums both chains' rewards.
Daily coins × USD price (refreshed every 10 minutes).
Power cost = (watts ÷ 1000) × 24 × your USD/kWh rate. Pool fees = revenue × pool fee.
(Revenue − power cost − pool fees) ÷ watts - the headline metric used to rank all hardware.
TL;DR BitMine reported 5,983,940 ETH in its treasury, just short of 6 million tokens. The company valued its combined treasury holdings at $17.1 billion. The disclosure also listed 212 BTC, $714 million in cash and securities, and stakes in Beast Industries and Eightco. BitMine Immersion Technologies has pushed its Ethereum treasury to within touching distance of 6 million ETH. A September 21 filing shows the company holds 5,983,940 ETH, alongside 212 BTC and a wider portfolio of cash, securities and strategic investments. BitMine put the combined value of those holdings at $17.1 billion. BitMine’s ETH Position Keeps Growing The exact ETH figure matters here. BitMine has not yet crossed 6 million ETH; it reported 5,983,940 tokens. According to the company’s disclosure, that position represents roughly 4.9% of the circulating ETH supply figure it used in the filing. The company also reported $714 million in cash and marketable securities, a $180 million stake in Beast Industries and a $105 million stake in Eightco. Taken together, the numbers show that BitMine’s balance sheet is broader than ETH alone, even though Ethereum remains the dominant part of the story. Ethereum Treasury Companies Are Becoming Their Own Market Category Public-company crypto treasuries were once overwhelmingly associated with Bitcoin. BitMine’s strategy shows how quickly that model has expanded into Ethereum. Holding almost 6 million ETH gives the company exposure not only to the token’s price but also to the wider economics around staking, network activity and institutional demand for Ethereum-based assets. It also makes changes in the company’s treasury unusually important for the ETH market simply because of the size involved. For now, the filing supports a precise conclusion: BitMine holds 5,983,940 ETH and values its combined disclosed treasury assets at $17.1 billion. Anything beyond that — including assumptions about future purchases or when the company will cross 6 million ETH — remains outside the filing.

Bitcoin price climbed above $87,000 on Monday as a broad crypto rally forced bearish leveraged positions out of the market. The recovery was buoyed by improved risk sentiment as Donald Trump’s administration proposed a $5 billion Gulf reconstruction to repair infrastructure damaged during the Iran war. At press time, Bitcoin had gained about 7% over The post Bitcoin Price Hits $87,000 as Trump Proposes $5B to Rebuild Gulf Sites Hit by US-Iran War appeared first on CoinGape .
Bitcoin's path to 2030 could be shaped by AI payments, stablecoin growth, regulatory clarity and increasingly scarce BTC supply.
TL;DR Strive disclosed the purchase of 1,355 BTC at an average price of about $79,475. Its corporate Bitcoin treasury increased from 25,000 BTC to 26,355 BTC. The disclosure relates to Strive’s own balance sheet, not third-party fund assets. Strive has increased its corporate Bitcoin holdings to 26,355 BTC after disclosing another 1,355 BTC purchase. The company reported the acquisition in a September 21 SEC filing, with the new coins purchased at an average price of roughly $79,475 each. Strive Pushes Past 26,000 BTC Before the latest addition, Strive held 25,000 BTC. The new purchase takes that figure to 26,355 BTC, giving the company a materially larger direct exposure to Bitcoin on its own corporate balance sheet. That point is important because Strive also operates in asset management. The 26,355 BTC figure refers to the company’s treasury position rather than Bitcoin held on behalf of outside investors in funds or managed products. The size of the new purchase also puts Strive among the more active public-company Bitcoin accumulators in the current market. At roughly $79,475 per coin, the company added exposure near the same broad price zone in which other treasury buyers have been active during September. Treasury Companies Keep Competing For Bitcoin Supply The filing arrives as corporate Bitcoin strategies continue to move beyond the handful of companies that pioneered the model. For investors, the practical question is increasingly less about whether public companies will hold Bitcoin and more about how aggressively individual firms intend to finance those positions. Strive’s latest disclosure gives a clear answer on direction: it is still adding. The company has not presented the 1,355 BTC as client assets or ETF holdings, and the distinction matters when comparing its position with asset managers that custody Bitcoin for third parties. On the numbers that are verified, Strive’s own treasury has now climbed to 26,355 BTC. This article was written by the News Desk and edited by Samuel Rae. Source: Primary Source
Mining difficulty is Bitcoin's automatic adjustment mechanism that keeps block times stable. At 126.23T as of August 2026, it determines how hard it is to mine each block. Here is exactly how the system recalibrates every two weeks.
Mining pool payouts determine exactly how much you earn for every hash you contribute. This guide covers PPS, PPLNS, and Proportional methods with live Bitcoin numbers so you can pick the method that matches your strategy.
A mining pool combines the computing power of many miners so everyone shares in the block rewards proportionally. Solo mining is essentially lottery ticket math that nobody wins at anymore.

CoinWarz is a Proof-of-Work (PoW) mining profitability platform. It provides live mining calculators, network difficulty and hashrate charts, USD price history, and ASIC hardware rankings sorted by Profit per Watt - net daily mining profit divided by power draw in watts.
CoinWarz estimates daily mining profit as: (your hashrate ÷ network hashrate) × block reward × blocks per day × coin USD price − electricity cost − pool fees. Blocks per day = 86,400 ÷ target block time in seconds. Electricity cost = (watts ÷ 1000) × 24 × USD per kWh. Pool fees = gross revenue × pool fee rate.
Bitcoin (BTC) is $85,564 USD on CoinWarz (updated Sep 22, 01:52 UTC). The SHA-256 network difficulty is 132.76T with an estimated hashrate of 964 EH/s. The current block subsidy is 3.125 BTC per block (~10 minute target block time).
Profit per Watt is net daily mining profit in USD divided by miner power draw in watts (USD/W/day). CoinWarz uses it as the headline metric for hardware rankings because electricity is the largest ongoing cost and efficiency determines real-world returns more than raw hashrate alone.
CoinWarz tracks 14 active PoW coins: Bitcoin (BTC), Zcash (ZEC), Monero (XMR), Litecoin (LTC), Dogecoin (DOGE), Dash (DASH), Ethereum Classic (ETC), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Ravencoin (RVN), Alephium (ALPH), EthereumPoW (ETHW), Vertcoin (VTC), Bellscoin (BELLS), Syscoin (SYS). Each has a mining calculator, optional difficulty/hashrate/price charts, and algorithm-matched hardware rankings.
USD prices are fetched from the CoinGecko public API every 10 minutes and stored in the CoinWarz database.
Block difficulty and estimated network hashrate come from synced full-node RPC data (Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin) or trusted block explorers (Zcash via Blockchair, Monero via LocalMonero). Values are recorded per block and shown on charts and calculators.
Yes. Litecoin and Dogecoin are AuxPoW merge-mined on the Scrypt algorithm. One Litecoin hashrate share earns both LTC (≈6.25 LTC/block, 150s target) and DOGE (≈10,000 DOGE/block, 60s target) block rewards against the Litecoin network hashrate.
The most profitable miner depends on your electricity rate, coin price, and network difficulty. CoinWarz ranks all listed hardware by Profit per Watt at your USD/kWh - use the Miners page to compare ASICs across algorithms or filter by coin.
