ASIC mining is mining crypto with an ASIC: a machine built to run one mining algorithm and nothing else. On the same power it’s thousands of times faster than a graphics card, which is why Bitcoin and most proof-of-work coins are now mined almost entirely on ASICs.
How it works
ASIC miners solve blocks. Every block pays a reward.
Each algorithm is the foundation of the blockchains it secures. Every ASIC is built for exactly one.

ASIC mining questions
Is ASIC mining still profitable?
Yes, for plenty of machines. Right now 202 of the 548 miners we track earn more than their electricity costs, led by the Bitmain Antminer Z15 Pro (860K) at about $55.40 a day after power. What decides it is the machine’s efficiency, your electricity price, and the coin’s price and difficulty, all of which change daily.
How many ASIC miners does it take to mine 1 Bitcoin?
Take today’s best-value Bitcoin miner, the one that earns back its price fastest: right now that’s the Bitmain Antminer S23e Hyd U2H (865T). About 2,400 of them working together would mine 1 BTC a day at today’s network hashrate. One on its own would take roughly 7 years to earn a whole bitcoin. That’s why miners count earnings in daily satoshis and join a pool, rather than waiting on whole coins.
How much do ASIC miners cost?
Most of the miners we sell right now cost between $2,500 and $7,000. Small home units cost a few hundred dollars, and the newest hydro-cooled Bitcoin machines run well into five figures. Price alone doesn’t tell you much: compare the cost against daily profit, which our rankings show as payback time.
Can I run an ASIC miner at home?
You can, but most people find it hard. A full-size ASIC is as loud as a leaf blower, puts out as much heat as several space heaters, and draws 3,000 watts or more, so on household electricity prices many machines barely break even. Small home units exist and run quietly, but they earn very little. Hosting puts the machine in a facility built for it, on cheaper industrial power, with cooling and repairs handled.
Is ASIC mining better than GPU mining?
For the coins ASICs are built for, yes, by a wide margin. An ASIC runs one algorithm thousands of times faster than a graphics card on the same power, so on Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin or Kaspa a GPU can’t compete. GPUs only make sense for coins that deliberately resist ASICs, and even there the profits are thin.
What is ASICMining.io?
We’re a mining provider and a mining data company in one. You can browse every ASIC miner, buy the one you want at the best price we can find, and have it hosted and mining within a week, with everything included. Then you can follow every detail of it in our own mining dashboard.
What makes ASICMining different?
Most places do one part of this: a profit calculator, a shop, or a hosting site. We do all three in one place. We recalculate profitability for every miner around the clock, track down the best and most reliable prices, then run the machine at our facility with import, tax and shipping already in the price. Pool fees are around 1% and never higher, one of the lowest you’ll find, and if power ever costs more than a miner earns we pause it, so it never mines at a loss.
Can I use your data in my own product?
Yes. Anyone who owns one of our miners gets unlimited access to our APIs: live profitability, prices and network data for every miner we track, ready to build into your own tools or business.
What does hosting include?
Setup, power, cooling and round-the-clock monitoring, with fast repairs at our onsite repair centre. We have hydro slots ready to go at no extra charge, so unlike a lot of providers you don’t need to buy into a container. Air or hydro, any make of miner, we do the rest. Uptime is guaranteed at 95% for air-cooled and 97% for hydro, backed by mining compensation.
Can my team manage miners together?
Yes. The dashboard runs as many workspaces as you need, so you can keep a personal setup alongside one for each business or team. Invite people to monitor and manage miners with you, and share miner reports straight into your team chat as you grow.
What support do you offer?
There’s a dedicated support chat, and you can talk to us about custom or enterprise setups whenever you need to. Whatever the size, we’ll find a way to make it work.
How do payouts and payments work?
There’s almost nothing for you to do. Electricity is worked out automatically as your miner runs and settled before anything is paid, so what lands in your wallet each day is profit, with the power already covered. Payouts are daily, straight to the wallet you set for each coin, and every earnings report can be viewed or downloaded from your dashboard. You pay for machines in USDT or USDC on Ethereum (ERC-20), from your own wallet.
How do you calculate profit?
A miner’s share of the network hashrate, times the coins the network mints in a day, times today’s price, minus electricity. Everything we use and what it leaves out is on how we calculate.
