Bitcoin mining is still a highly profitable business despite its drawbacks. Moreover, the total cumulative revenue for BTC miners has just reached a new milestone. On-chain analytics provider Glassnode has reported that Bitcoin miners have earned total revenue of $50.2 billion from the block subsidy and fees.
One of the greatest gifts Bitcoin gave the world was its underlying technology: blockchain. It has birthed a financial revolution, channeled capital to parts of the globe that need it and untethered the power to transact from the few to the many. And now, as we see, in Bitcoin’s strong start to 2023, those long-awaited beams of sunlight have come out to shine on crypto’s firstborn.
The past year has been no fun for bitcoin miners. The low bitcoin price, the rising hashrate and the sky-high energy prices are not favorable market conditions for mining bitcoin (BTC).
Doing anything from your house, whether it’s working from home or mining cryptocurrencies, comes with its own set of challenges, especially when you’re first starting out. We find out what some of those challenges are and how to overcome them.
Hashrate is one of the most commonly referenced metrics in bitcoin mining. But what is it? As the term suggests, the Bitcoin network’s hashrate is simply the estimated rate of total hashes generated by all active mining machines. Called hashing, the process of generating hashes is the primary job of miners.
Major cryptocurrencies were trading in the red early on October 13 as the global crypto market cap decreased 0.05 percent to $918.19 billion over the last day. The total crypto market volume dropped 9.88 percent to $44.13 billion over the last 24 hours.

Ethereum's new validator system ushered in a new cast of characters responsible for keeping the chain up and running. With these new characters came new concerns around network centralization.
According to the Wall Street Journal, Ether's recent shift from its previous PoW to a PoS model, which classifies the world's second largest cryptocurrency as a security, may have caught the attention of SEC Chairman Gensler.
The massive overhaul of Ethereum known as the Merge has finally happened, moving the digital machinery at the core of the second-largest cryptocurrency to a vastly more energy-efficient system after years of development and delay.
Drenching mining — or mining with submersion cooling frameworks — is the act of lowering bitcoin mining gear in dielectric liquids — either oils or designed liquids — with the objectives of overseeing heat exhaust, restricting commotion, expanding creation and that's just the beginning.
