Bitcoin miner revenues dwindle as halving erodes mining volumes: Bitbo
Mining revenues hit 12-month lows in August, according to Bitbo.
Bitcoin (BTC) miners saw mining revenues dwindle to 12-month lows as the Bitcoin network’s April “halving” continues to erode mining output and, in turn, revenues, according to data from Bitbo, a Bitcoin dashboard.
Monthly BTC mining revenues declined to approximately $827 million in August 2024, according to Bitbo. That’s lower than any month since September 2023 and far below pre-halving peaks of almost $2 billion in March 2024.
Roughly every four years, a “halving” event hardcoded into the Bitcoin network cuts the number of BTC mined per “block” in half. The April halving reduced mining rewards from 6.25 BTC to 3.125 BTC per block.
