A CoinShares report indicates that Bitcoin miners are facing severe profitability challenges. The hash price is projected to fall to a historic low of approximately $28-30 per hash/s/day in Q1 2026. In Q4 2025, the weighted average cash cost for global miners to produce a single Bitcoin reached approximately $80,000, resulting in about 15-20% of mining rigs operating at a loss globally. Currently, listed mining companies have cumulatively signed AI/HPC contracts exceeding $70 billion, and it is estimated that by the end of 2026, some leading mining companies will derive up to 70% of their revenue from AI businesses.
