Compass Mining

📢 The February edition of our monthly Bitcoin mining report just dropped. We review Bitcoin network dynamics and how the most popular ASICs performed last month. Using our own models, we also estimate miner profitability for March. Check it out now in the comments 👇

This is the road through Bitcoin mining country. Texas offers some of the best power prices and arguably the best regulatory environment for miners. The beautiful sunrises are a bonus.

Are these companies abandoning Bitcoin near the bottom to get in on AI at the top? We'll see. Read more in our latest article. compassmining.io/education/bitc…

Public Bitcoin mining companies are raising tens of billions of dollars to jump on the AI hype train. Ripping out miners and retooling their infrastructure. We're tracking these moves as they happen 👇 $CLSK $CANG $CIFR $WULF $IREN $CORZ $BTDR $BITF $HUT

🇺🇸Spending the second half of the week in Texas with the @compass_mining at Texas 5. ⚡️A 100 MW Modular Data Center Hosting Site, Supporting Bitcoin and Scrypt Miners! Video Out Soon!

We'll be in Las Vegas next month. Excited to meet and connect with the rest of the community. Stay tuned for more details!

Bitcoin's network hashrate has fallen from over 1 ZH/s to 800 EH/s. That sounds bad. But for miners who stay hashing, it’s good news. Later this week, network difficulty could adjust downward by ~8%. Remaining miners split the same 450 BTC daily reward among fewer participants. Meanwhile, Bitcoin has surged back above $70,000 as traders react to turmoil in the Middle East. The efficient miners just won twice: easier difficulty and higher Bitcoin prices.

HIVE $HIVE just announced it's shutting down Bitcoin mining in Sweden due to "onerous regulations." Converting the facility to AI/HPC data centers instead. Fortunately, miners can just pack and go where they're treated better. The biggest losers are local consumers.

The IRS is literally paying you to buy Bitcoin miners. 100% bonus depreciation = write off the entire cost THIS year. But here's the catch: miners must be hashing before Dec 31, 2026 to hit your April 2027 tax bill. Sitting on capital gains? Big tax bill coming? This isn't tax evasion. It's tax strategy with Bitcoin exposure built in.

Michael Saylor's Strategy $MSTR just bought more Bitcoin in one week than all miners globally produced. 22,337 BTC purchased vs 3,150 BTC mined. 7x the weekly new supply absorbed in a bear market! The mechanism? Strategy preferred stock: - Week 1: $1.18B raised - Week 2: Another billion That could total $16B more by year-end.

Wyoming bought $10 million worth of gold. That stockpile requires: - $7,021 in annual fees - 24/7 security - Vault attached to bedrock - Armored truck for transport $10 million in Bitcoin: - 12 words - $0 storage - Teleports globally

In our monthly reports, we identify the real signals that matter for miners amid the noise. compassmining.io/education/bitc…

Just 10 days ago, Bitcoin was stuck at $68,000. But predictions markets were already signaling a $71,000 price target for March, with a bias toward further upside. We spotted this trend before it happened in our February mining review. 👇

Overall uptime across all sites was 92.11% last week. At Texas 5, the onsite team focused on diagnosing units with issues, completing bolt-on repairs, and performing site cleanup to improve overall efficiency and readiness. At Texas 8, the team prioritized racking units, carrying out repairs, and diagnosing miners that were offline to bring them back into operation. We share these updates weekly as part of our commitment to transparency and accountability. Read the latest Facility Update: compassmining.io/education/comp… Ready to mine?

Quantum FUD again? We've been "5 years away" from quantum computing since 2005. Even if it arrives tomorrow, Bitcoin's difficulty isn't fixed. It adjusts every 2,016 blocks. -Current: 144.4 trillion -Post-quantum: 144.4 quadrillion -Next level: 144 quintillion The protocol can scale difficulty forever. This argument died the moment it arrived.

Everyone's worried about oil prices causing a recession. But here's the thing: recessions historically trigger the money printer. Bitcoin since Iran war started? +10%. Smart money is already pre-positioning.

Bitcoin's current annualized inflation rate: <1% Gold's estimated supply growth: 1.5-2% annually. After the 2028 halving, Bitcoin's inflation drops further. By the 2030s: negligible in any practical sense.

Can you mine Bitcoin at home in 2026? Sure...if you have: -240V circuits -76 dB noise tolerance -6 cent/kWh electricity -very tolerant family Consider joining us instead!
