Chart 14: Bitcoin Mining Industry Annual Revenue, in US$ Terms

in mining •  7 years ago 

In 5-10 days or so, the total "mining revenue" of the #Bitcoin network will surpass its previous all-time high. About $900 million on a trailing 12-month basis. That is - today - miners have earned $900 million, based on the prevailing daily BTC/US$ exchange rate, from all new coins they have "mined" - plus transaction fees - over the past 365 days.

$900 million. If you are curious, transaction fees at present comprise about 11% of this number, or $95 million.

This chart also plots the history of a valuation metric, still novel in the crypto space, charting Bitcoin's market cap divided by this mining revenue... in other words, a "price-to-sales" ratio.
