Russia Ranks as the Most Profitable Bitcoin Mining Region Globally

Read Time:59 Second

Russia has emerged as a very profitable Bitcoin mining region based on electricity and mining costs per BTC.

 

Bitcoin mining has been a profitable sector since the birth of the cryptocurrency market. However, as miner rewards decrease after every Bitcoin halving event and the cost of mining equipment rises, investors have to be strategic about their firm locations. This is due to varying costs of electricity, tax policies, and other factors that slash profit margins across different regions.

A recent report by NFT Evening has analyzed mining costs across different regions globally, considering electricity costs in each location. According to the data, Russia has ranked as the most profitable BTC mining region. It costs approximately $39k to mine 1 BTC, worth $95k in the current market price.

A country like Germany costs $230k while the U.S costs $85K per Bitcoin mined. There exists a significant profit margin for investors mining in Russia due to affordable energy, as Western nations face low cost-efficiency in the mining process.

Russia’s energy advantage could reshape the BTC mining industry and global hashpower distribution.

What is Staking and Liquid Staking in Crypto?

1 0
Read Time:1 Minute, 10 Second

Staking is critical in securing blockchain networks while earning rewards for investing in crypto assets.

 

In traditional finance, people lock up their savings in financial institutions such as banks to earn interest. In the crypto market, staking refers to locking up your crypto assets in decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols to earn rewards. Staking has become a popular way of earning passive income in crypto as locked-up tokens help secure the blockchain networks.

In the early stages of crypto staking, one could only earn through the staked tokens. With liquid staking, a flexibility feature is included. One can stake a token like Ethereum and get a liquid version like stETH, which can be traded and used for other purposes on the DeFi ecosystem.

This is like locking your savings and getting a receipt to use for other reasons, and later redeeming the receipt for your savings.

Why is Liquid Staking Important?

Liquid staking is an innovation that unlocks more asset utility without sacrificing one’s potential rewards, especially for long-term token holders. Staking will earn investors passive income, while liquid staking gives both yield and freedom to risk some of your staked assets for more potential gains without withdrawing them.

Platforms such as Lido, Rocket Pool, and Coinbase offer liquid staking services for crypto assets like Ethereum and Solana. This game-changer service allows one to maximize on their crypto utility and returns.

A sign of thin BTC resistance ahead?

As U.S demand for BTC rises,  the bulls gain strong momentum to break past the previous key resistance levels. Additionally, price uptrend could induce liquidations, fear of missing out (FOMO), and short squeezes, thus fuelling the price to rise higher. With BTC’s momentum gaining strength, the resistance ahead could become thin and negligible.

Mantra(OM) CEO to Burn 100% of Team Tokens to Restore Trust

1 0
Read Time:1 Minute, 8 Second

Mantra CEO JP Mullin has announced a plan to burn 100% of the team allocation tokens to win back the trust of the project’s vast community.

 

April 15th—Mantra CEO JP Mullin has sparked debate in the crypto space regarding the team’s innocence in the recent OM token crash. In a surprising turn of events, Mullin has declared that he is planning a burning strategy for 100% of the team’s allocation tokens. According to his X(formerly Twitter) post:

 

The teams token allocation are actually vesting only starting in 2027, which is 30 months from mainnet launch (Oct. 24). I’m planning to burn all of my team tokens and when we turn it around the community and investors can decide if I have earned it back.

 

This follows allegations of insider trading and manipulations leading to massive liquidations of traders’ positions. However, according to Mullin’s recent interview:

 

We did not sell a single OM… The team also did not get liquidated… We don’t have leveraged positions on exchanges…we don’t do that.

 

He also stated that he will create a “comprehensive burn program” for other parts of the OM supply. Some crypto enthusiasts believe burning 100% of the team allocation could lower their morale.

However, Mullin’s announcement is a step towards desirable accountability and leadership in the crypto space.
