According to Bloomberg News, Energy Finance (BNEF) coverage, China's bit coin miners benefit greatly from price hikes and are making great profits. In order to uncover a bit coin, it is necessary to analyze a huge amount of processing by spending a large amount of electric power and turning a high-performance computer, but in the present China, the electricity charge is very low level There is a structure that the profit increases as you use electricity because it is in.

As of January 10, 2018 bit coin price is $ 13,900 per BTC (about 1.55 million yen), but according to BNEF analyst Sophie Lu, even if you estimate the highest electricity price , The breakeven point of bit coin mining will be 6925 dollars (about 770,000 yen). In addition, the regular electricity charge in China is at most 0.13 dollars per kWh (about 14.50 yen), but because the electricity industry is in a state of excess supply capacity, the unit price is reduced by 0.03 dollars (about 3 yen 40 It is possible to even lower it to Qian). The breakeven point in this case drops to 3869 dollars (about 430,000 yen).

This is the world's largest mining company actually mine mining,BHP BillitonIt is consuming in the year38 TWhIt corresponds to the level exceeding half of the electric power of. It is noteworthy that China accounts for the power consumption in bit coin mining. Consumer electricity is bit coin minor in China15.4 TWhAlso, the worldwide bit coin power demand75%It is also reaching. From here also, you can see that the main battleground for bit coin mining is completely in China.


The price of bit coins has reached 1 BTC = 2,200,000 yen at major Japanese exchanges on December 17, 2017, but there is also a situation where the price will fall below the 1.4 million yen level in the next week after plunging.
