Popularize a little-known fact about Bitcoin mining!
Do you know how long it takes for a Bitcoin mining machine to mine 1 BTC?
The answer is 【13 years】
And this is under ideal conditions, with no sudden power outages, no malfunctions, no increase in difficulty, and not counting electricity costs.
Why does it take so long? Let me break it down for you.
🧊 Taking the Avalon A1566HA as an example:
• Hashrate: 480T
• Total network hashrate: about 1.08Z (= 1,080,000T)
• Block reward: 3.125 BTC
• Total network daily output: 450 BTC / day
Converting that:
480T / 1.08Z ≈ 0.0000444 of the total network hashrate
Daily yield ≈ 450 × 0.0000444 ≈ 0.01998 BTC/year
In other words:
A 480T machine takes about 13 years to mine 1 BTC.
And this is still under 'perfect conditions'—
Not counting:
❌ Electricity costs
❌ Hosting fees
❌ Mining farm costs
❌ Equipment depreciation
❌ Difficulty continuously increasing
In reality, it will only take longer, not shorter.
This is why old miners never rely on a single miracle:
• Competing on electricity prices, the cheaper the electricity, the better the advantage
• Competing on hosting costs
• Competing on scale and efficiency
• Competing on long-term cycles, not overnight riches
Real mining has never been about fantasizing about getting rich,
But rather racing against time, costs, and difficulty.
If you've always thought 'a mining machine can mine one big coin in a few months',
Then today might make you silent for a moment. #比特币
