Is the Whatsminer M53S profitable?

The MicroBT Whatsminer M53S mines Bitcoin on the SHA-256 algorithm at 260 TH/s, drawing 6,760 W (26.0 J/TH). At $0.08 per kWh it earns about $9.76 a day but spends $12.98 on power, so it loses $3.21 a day. It only makes money if your power costs less than about $0.060 per kWh.

That puts it #439 of 522 on daily profit across every miner we track, and #143 of 262 SHA-256 miners on efficiency. It isn’t in stock with us at the moment. It’s an air-cooled unit, released in May 2023.
