Despite a 3% drop in Bitcoin's (CRYPTO: BTC) network hashrate in June, daily miner revenues soared to approximately $55,300 per exahash per second (EH/s), one of the highest profitability levels this year, according to a commentary shared with Benzinga by the analytics team of TeraHash, a global Bitcoin yield protocol.
What Happened: This surprising divergence, fueled by Bitcoin's $109,000 spot price and $14 billion in ETF inflows, added $5.3 billion—a 23% increase—to the market value of publicly listed mining firms.
According to a JPMorgan report, Bitcoin's network hashrate dropped by ~3% in June, primarily due to seasonal heat impacts on miners.
TeraHash's team noted, "Bitcoin's computing power cooled in June, but its earnings rose," highlighting a break from the traditional "difficulty crushes profits" cycle. The key? Miners are adapting strategically.
While some chase high-performance computing (HPC) for AI infrastructure, others capitalize on operational flexibility.
Deals like CoreWeave Inc.'s (NASDAQ:CRWV) acquisition of Core Scientific Inc. (NASDAQ:CORZ) value mining infrastructure at 16x next year's earnings, reflected a pivot to AI.
Meanwhile, a quieter segment earns through grid curtailment payments, hash rate hedging, and leasing idle capacity to retail users.
Looking forward, TeraHash models two scenarios: "Miners integrating grid programs and derivatives can reallocate ~10% of capacity and sustain margins," even as mining difficulty rises.
Conversely, HPC-heavy miners risk 15% margin compression if AI demand slows or infrastructure lags.
Why It Matters: "The market is no longer paying for raw output," the team told Benzinga, urging investors to back miners who "flex power deals, hedges, and capacity rentals."
This shift signals a new era for Bitcoin mining, where adaptability trumps computational power.
As miners navigate seasonal challenges and market dynamics, their ability to diversify revenue streams will define success in a rapidly evolving industry.
