Break-Even Electricity Rate

Every miner has a break-even rate determined by its efficiency and current hashprice: an S21 XP might break even near $0.10–0.12/kWh while an old S19 dies above $0.05/kWh. It is the first number to compute before buying hardware — if your power price is above a machine's break-even, no amount of hope fixes the math.

Break-even shifts daily with price and difficulty. Our simulation pages publish live break-even rates for every hardware model, and the per-country pages compare them against real electricity prices worldwide.
