Bitcoin Mining Machine Prices Exceed Shutdown Thresholds

Data from Antpool reveals that several Bitcoin mining machines, including models like the Antminer S19 series and those below the Whatsminer M60 series (such as the Whatsminer M53S++ and M56S++), have reached their shutdown price. This threshold is calculated based on the current Bitcoin mining difficulty and an electricity cost of $0.08 per kilowatt-hour. The Whatsminer M60 and M66 models are close to this level, with a projected shutdown price exceeding $93,000. Conversely, high-performance machines like the Antminer U3S23H and Antminer S23 Hyd boast shutdown prices above $44,000.
