Market panic is common, just remember how many we’ve already seen. But there is no steady growth without panic sales, and disappointment is often followed by reinvention and inspiration.
Are Trump's tariffs so terrible for Bitcoin mining? Let's see what happened on Monday, April 7, 2025, when Ethereum lost almost 20% and Bitcoin lost 10%.
Let's take a look at the mining calculator and track profitability:
Daily profitability of top miners remains quite high.
For large mining companies like Marathon Digital (MARA), the cost of Bitcoin mining is just over $50k, which means that nothing extraordinary is happening for miners of this scale. They continue to mine steadily without experiencing any pressure.
In order for the negative market to really affect mining, mining has to become unprofitable, and as you can see from the calculator, this is still a long way off.
Actually, such large fluctuations are explained by the fact that cryptocurrencies skyrocketed at the turn of 2024-25. If we talk about the fair bitcoin price, it should have stayed at around $75k, rather than looking for a foothold above one hundred. We would have ended up there sooner or later anyway. But the market is the market: emotional growth gives way to emotional decline, speculators lose money, and miners earn no matter what.
The Hashprice index is going down, but it's still $40/PH/day, so what looks like a storm from the outside is not really one - BTC mining continues to work and earn!
In confirmation of this, on April 6, 2025, Bitcoin network difficulty reached a new historical maximum of 121.5078 T, instantly increasing by almost 7%!
How's Minto doing?
Minto is a large mining company with an optimized mining infrastructure and access to cheap electricity. But Minto's advantages are not limited to this. We use an intelligent mining profitability management algorithm (65% uptime), thanks to which we not only earn more, but also use resources sparingly, not wasting funds on mining at all costs, but achieving the minimum cost of mining 1 BTC.
According to the March report, the cost of 1 BTC for Minto is $51,738. Thus, we have a significant margin of safety.
In addition, it should be borne in mind that as the bitcoin keeps falling, the difficulty will also begin to drop. For mining, this relationship works in such a way that the bitcoin mining profitability actually falls much slower than its exchange rate. What is considered scary on the stock exchange is merely felt in the data center.
In 2022, when the cryptocurrency market was experiencing difficult times, and many analysts predicted its collapse, we published a research article based on panic forecasts that, in particular, predicted the fall of bitcoin to $2,000 (by the way, it was worth $20,000 at the time). As a result, just as we expected, first of all, nothing like that happened, and secondly, we showed that even a fall of this magnitude can only reformat the mining market, removing weak players, but not destroy it completely.
What's next?
So, Bitcoin mining continues and there is not a single reason to worry about its future.
Today, the Minto $BTCMT hashrate token dropped slightly to the level of $0.57. This means that mining power has become slightly cheaper, which means that there is an additional opportunity to enter mining with minimal investment!
Minto continues to work, and we invite those who have been looking for the right time to enter the mining market to join us, and those who have already understood how it works and have been earning with us for several years - to step up their efforts!
And most importantly: every fall is followed by growth, and those who stay in the market always get a chance for a new round of profits!
