Bitcoin mining companies continue to suffer from crypto winter’s market conditions: substantial drop in mining rig prices, low cryptocurrency prices, heightened volatility, and unprofitable mining operations.
We are looking for bright spots and believe Marathon Digital Holdings and Riot Blockchain will survive the crypto winter with the opportunity to win market share in the coming years.
Our analysis suggests all-in-breakeven costs (miner costs+power costs+OpEx) of the most efficient BTC mining companies to mine a BTC close to the current BTC price of ~$20,000. 


Crypto Mining Industry Series: Looking For Bright Spots As The Darkest Months Ahead

<ul>
<li>During the last three months, the crypto market has lost ~$2 trillion in value and slightly recovered in July when BTC bulls could hold a $20K price level. </li>
<li>Bitcoin mining economics changed dramatically, and depressed BTC prices forced inefficient miners out of the market. Some BTC mining companies started to sell Bitcoins to cover OpEx and CapEx. </li>
<li>We remain bullish on <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/marathon-digital-holdings-inc" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:33244:1" rel="noopener">Marathon Digital Holdings (MARA US)</a> and upgrade <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/riot-blockchain-inc" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:35453:1" rel="noopener">Riot Blockchain (RIOT US)</a> and <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/cipher-mining" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:33309:1" rel="noopener">Cipher Mining (CIFR US)</a>  to Overweight on favorable risk-reward post-recent sell-off.</li>

Crypto Mining Industry Series: Time To Focus On Efficient Crypto Miners
