Table Guide

How to Use the Profitability Table

Four short steps to turn the full table into your shortlist.

Pick a Ranking View

Earnings, efficiency, value, ROI and overall score each answer a different buying question. Start with overall if you want one balanced list.

Set Your Energy Cost

Enter your pence per kWh, or pick a hosting site rate, and every profit, break-even and payback figure recalculates around your power price.

Filter to Your Setup

Cut the full range by brand, algorithm, cooling method and stock status until every row is a machine you could actually run.

Shortlist and Compare

Take your two or three strongest rows to the dedicated ranking pages for live cards, deeper context and buying guidance.

What Decides Profitability

Earnings

What a machine generates at today's coin prices and network difficulty. The raw material of every profit figure on the page.

Electricity

The cost that never stops. Your pence per kWh decides how much of the earnings you keep, and it differs for every buyer.

Hardware Price

What you paid sets the bar the profit has to clear. Delivered price against output is the whole value question.

ASIC Miner Profitability: Your Questions Answered

Frequently Asked Questions About Mining Profitability in 2026

The questions buyers ask before trusting a profitability number: how the figures are built, what they assume, and how to turn them into a sensible purchase.

Illustration for the ASIC miner profitability questions and answers section

Profitability Fundamentals

Whether mining still pays, how the sums work and what a UK buyer should expect.

It can be, and the honest answer depends almost entirely on your electricity price and your hardware choice. The same table above shows machines earning comfortably at some power rates and losing money at others.

That is why this page exists. Set your own pence per kWh and the table answers the question for your situation instead of in general.

Take the machine's estimated daily earnings, then subtract electricity: power draw in kilowatts, times 24 hours, times your pence per kWh. What remains is daily profit, which you can scale to months or years.

The table above runs that calculation for every machine at once when you enter your rate, which is faster and less error prone than a spreadsheet.

At typical UK domestic electricity rates the bar is high, and only efficient machines clear it comfortably. At hosted rates from around 4p per kWh the picture changes considerably.

Website prices exclude VAT unless stated otherwise. Use the final checkout or invoice total, including delivery and applicable charges, when assessing profitability.

Below a machine's break-even rate it earns more than it burns, and the most efficient machines carry the highest break-even rates, which is what makes them resilient.

Rather than one universal number, compare the break-even column against your own bill. Machines with plenty of headroom above your rate are the safe shortlist.

Because any written profitability list is stale by the time you read it. Coin prices move around the clock, network difficulty adjusts constantly and hardware prices shift with stock.

The table recalculates continuously, so the order you see is the order right now, and the same machine can sit differently tomorrow.

Getting the Numbers Right

Earnings against profit, calculator accuracy, hosted rates and reading beyond one day.

Earnings are what a machine generates before any costs. Profit is what remains once your electricity is paid.

The table opens on earnings so machines compare fairly, then becomes a profit table the moment you enter your rate. The highest earning and most profitable pages each go deeper on one side of that line.

Only as accurate as their assumptions. Many quote bare overseas hardware prices, stale difficulty data or a generic electricity rate, all of which flatter the results.

This table works from our live product data and delivered UK prices, and its assumptions are visible: your rate, current prices, current difficulty. Check any calculator's inputs before trusting its outputs.

Yes. Pick a hosting site in the table and its electricity rate is applied automatically, showing the hosted profitability picture for every machine at once.

For many UK buyers this is the single biggest lever, because hosted power can turn a marginal machine into a comfortable one. See our hosting options for current rates.

Profit alone ignores what you paid and how efficiently the machine runs. The overall score blends earnings, efficiency, value and payback into one number, so strong all-rounders surface even when they are not the single biggest earner.

Use profit to answer today and the overall score to answer the whole ownership. The best overall ranking is built entirely on that blend.

No single day tells the story. Network difficulty tends to rise over time and coin prices swing both ways, so a machine's resilience matters as much as its snapshot.

Efficiency and break-even headroom are the best resilience measures, which is exactly why the table carries them beside the profit figures.

From Numbers to a Purchase

Finding the current leaders, sizing a first machine and placing an order with confidence.

The current leaders sit at the top of the table above, and the most profitable ASIC miners page tracks the top ten with live cards and deeper guidance.

Leadership changes with the market, so check the live positions rather than relying on anything written in advance.

Spend what your electricity rate can support. A modest, efficient machine that stays profitable at your rate beats a flagship that only works on paper.

Filter the table to your budget, then talk to us if you want a sanity check before committing. The conversation costs nothing.

Yes. Each algorithm has its own machines, coins and market conditions, and profitability leadership moves between them over time.

Filter the table by algorithm or mineable asset to compare within one family, or leave it open to see everything ranked on equal terms.

Shortlist the machines that stay profitable at your rate with break-even headroom, then check their live stock status and final checkout or invoice total.

From there, order online or speak to the team. We will confirm stock, timelines, delivery charges and hosting availability before you commit.
