How the Mining Profitability Calculator Works
Our calculator uses live network data — including current mining difficulty, network hashrate, and real-time coin prices — to estimate how much cryptocurrency your hardware can earn per day, week, month, and year.
The Profitability Formula
The core calculation is based on your share of the total network hashrate:
Daily Revenue = (Your Hashrate ÷ Network Hashrate) × Block Reward × (86,400 ÷ Block Time) × Coin Price
Your net profit is the daily revenue minus your electricity cost and pool fee. This gives you an accurate estimate of what you can realistically expect to take home.
What Each Input Means
- Hash Rate: Your miner's computational speed (found on the spec sheet).
- Power Consumption: Total watts drawn from the wall under load.
- Electricity Cost: What you pay per kilowatt-hour to your utility provider.
- Pool Fee: The percentage your mining pool charges on earnings (typically 1–2%).
- Hardware Cost: (Optional) Used to calculate your break-even date.
Why Results Are Estimates
Mining profitability changes constantly. Network difficulty adjusts roughly every two weeks for Bitcoin (and more frequently for other coins) based on how much total hashrate is competing. Coin prices fluctuate 24/7. Our calculator uses live data refreshed every 10 minutes, but treat results as directional estimates, not guaranteed returns.
