This is revenue that miners make per unit of hashing power, and it has been in free fall since the year began.<\/p>\n<p>The hashprice of Bitcoin continued to fall after Bitcoin price dropped below $20,000 again. With the mining difficulty rising, hashprice slipped in the third quarter, dropping 5% from $79.60\/PH\/day to $83.30\/PH\/day.<\/p>\n<p>The fall in average USD hashprice between the second quarter and the third quarter shows a vast difference. In the second quarter, the average USD hashprice was $141.20\/PH\/day. However, it dropped to $92.70\/PH\/day by the third quarter.<\/p>\n<p>The hash price has fallen by 73% on an annual basis to $79.60\/TH\/day n the third quarter from $290.40\/PH\/day a year ago.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333; font-size: 22px; font-weight: bold;\">Cost of power is high<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Part of what led to miners struggling to achieve profitability was the rise in power rates throughout the US. The average industrial electricity cost increased by 25% from July 2021 to July 2022.<\/p>\n<p>Several mining states, such as Georgia, Kentucky, Texas, Pennsylvania, New York, and Tennessee, increased their power rates significantly.<\/p>\n<p>Georgia's rise was the highest, with power rates going from less than $80 per megawatt in July 2021 to over $120. Only North Dakota saw a slight decrease in its power rates within that period.<\/p>\n<p>All these have made it costly to produce BTC in most states in the U.S., with the average cost of production being around $15,000.<\/p>\n<h2>Hosting contracts are more expensive<\/h2>\n<p>Due to the rising production costs, hosting contracts have become more expensive, with the average being $0.08-0.09\/kWh. This is a significant rise given that hosting contracts usually offer power prices of $0.05-$0.06\/kWh before.<\/p>\n<p>Many hosting providers also opt for profit\/revenue sharing models instead of the &#8220;all-in&#8221; that used to be popular.<\/p>\n<h2>Miners feel the pinch<\/h2>\n<p>Miners are feeling the hard times, especially with rising debt obligations and difficulty finding liquidity options.<\/p>\n<p>Unsurprisingly, miners are liquidating their BTC treasuries. Throughout the third quarter, miners sold a significant portion of their Bitcoin production. But public miners sold less than their monthly production in August and September.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin (BTC) miners had a rough third quarter, with the cost of mining increasing, although BTC\u2019s price continued to fall, according to the Hashrate Index report.
