Bitcoin mining — hash rate, halving economics, and public miners

Bitcoin mining secures the world's largest blockchain, and a thin layer of public miners — Riot Platforms, Marathon Digital, CleanSpark, Hut 8, Core Scientific, Cipher, Iris Energy — drives a meaningful slice of crypto-equity coverage. Our mining news desk tracks network hash rate and difficulty adjustments, ASIC efficiency and prices (Antminer S21, Whatsminer M60), mining pool distribution (Foundry, AntPool, ViaBTC), energy mix and grid integration, miner balance sheets, hash-rate hedging derivatives, halving impact on revenue per terahash, and the geographies — Texas, Paraguay, the UAE, Bhutan — where mining is expanding or being squeezed out.
