HUT8 & BTBT Are the Best Value for BTC Miners I have included some stats I gathered while preparing for my most recent podcast episode. My main take away was the price you are paying for 1000ph/s in bitcoin mining capabilities.
HUT8 is the clear Canadian winner at $0.56B USD
BTBT is the clear American winner at $0.55B USD
I know what people pumping MARA are going to say "They are investing to have the most mining capacity of any of these companies"
Sure that's fine... but as we sit now they are no where close and people are already pricing in their full mining capacity. In my opnion it is way more risk than you need to take, when you can invest in already established operations who are currently mining.
In addition to that HUT is holding the most BTC of any of them at 3007. They have been usingdebt to finance their growth rather than selling their BTC, and with the price appreciation in BTC this has proved to be a great move. They have recently cleared off $20M in debt as well.
Weird to me others would finance by selling BTC... by becoming a mining company you would think you believe in the long term success of bitcoin? Logically, if this were the case you would prefer debt financing as you wouldn't want to be giving up BTC at cheap prices when you believe in the technology.
Anyways, I like HUT.TO and BTBT
