比特幣挖礦面臨生存挑戰,利潤急劇下滑




比特幣礦工的哈希價格接近40美元,礦工重回「生存模式」:報告

隨著哈希價格的下跌及比特幣價格的下降,礦業行業正面臨日益嚴峻的壓力,這種困境已蔓延至整個供應鏈。

比特幣的礦業部門正遭受越來越大的壓力,因為哈希價格——這一行業的主要盈利指標——正在逼近可能迫使小型運營商停業的水平,並對更廣泛的供應鏈造成壓力。

目前,哈希價格約為每秒每千兆哈希(PH/s)42美元。自七月以來,該指標一直在穩步下降,當時其價格曾飆升至每PH/s超過62美元。

根據《TheMinerMag》的報導,哈希價格向40美元的推進使得本已利潤微薄的比特幣礦業運營商不得不考慮關閉其設備。

哈希價格的下降也影響了礦業供應鏈。硬件供應商對於面臨困境的礦工的訂單減少,並且由於比特幣價格在十月市場崩盤後下跌,任何以比特幣計價的銷售也受到影響。

礦業硬件製造商如Bitdeer已經轉向自我挖礦,以彌補對礦機需求的短缺。

微薄的利潤、對硬件升級的高資本支出以及不斷上升的能源成本,迫使許多比特幣礦工轉向人工智能(AI)和高性能計算數據中心,以便在比特幣挖礦變得愈加競爭的情況下創造收入。

礦工在不斷增加的哈希率中轉向AI

比特幣礦工每四年必然會面臨獎勵減半的情況,隨著挖礦所需的計算能力和電力不斷上升,這一挑戰愈發明顯。

自2009年以來,成功挖掘一個區塊的初始獎勵為50 BTC,當時的礦工是使用個人電腦的CPU進行挖礦。

在2024年4月的減半後,比特幣的區塊獎勵減少至3.125 BTC,現在需要專用的挖礦硬件(即應用專用集成電路,ASIC)來進行比特幣挖礦。

這些挑戰性的經濟環境迫使許多礦工多元化,進入相鄰的AI數據中心和計算業務,這些業務為轉型的公司帶來了數十億美元的收入。

在十月,Cipher Mining與科技巨頭亞馬遜簽署了一項價值55億美元的協議,為亞馬遜網絡服務提供計算能力,為期15年。

比特幣礦業公司IREN在11月與微軟簽署了類似的協議,提供GPU計算服務,價值97億美元。

這一系列的變化顯示出比特幣挖礦行業正面臨的困境,以及礦工們如何努力尋找新的收入來源。隨著市場環境的變化,礦工們不僅需要適應技術的進步,還需靈活應對經濟挑戰,這對於整個行業的未來發展至關重要。

在這樣的背景下,礦工的生存策略不僅是對抗當前的市場挑戰,更是對未來可能出現的機會的探索。隨著AI和高性能計算的崛起,礦工們或許能夠在這個變化多端的市場中找到新的立足點。

Prompt:

Use my image upload (keep original face) I wearing a black beanie, a black jacket, black pants, and black boots, holding a phone in his hand. He is sitting on a low wall or bench outdoors at night, with blurry city lights in the background creating a bokeh effect. Base Setup
keep 100 percent facial information adherence of the attached image and turn her into a lone night hiker standing in the shallow river at the mouth of the canyon, captured as a live action photograph or movie still, not an illustration or CGI render, with an alluring, confident, quietly sexy mood.

Shot and Camera
Three quarter body shot from slightly low height on the riverbank, placing her on the left third while the water leads into the dark canyon and the star filled sky dominates the top of the frame, preserving the original wide vertical composition.

Identity and Pose
She has a slim athletic build, natural proportions, medium length loose hair, and lightly tanned skin, 8k Photorealistic and hyper realistic. She stands barefoot in the water with one leg forward, hips relaxed, wearing a fitted cropped technical top and separate high waisted trail shorts with an open lightweight jacket slipping off one shoulder, one hand loosely holding a headlamp at her side and the other brushing hair from her face as she looks up at the stars.

Lighting and Environment
Keep the soft starlight and faint glow from the distant horizon, giving a gentle rim on her shoulders and hair while a subtle fill from the reflected sky reveals her features. The canyon walls, river reflections, pebbled shore, and dense star field stay exactly like the reference, with small ripples around her feet grounding her in the water.

Masking and Constraints
Change only by adding the subject and her outfit, keep lighting, perspective, white balance, canyon geometry, and river reflections the same, with realistic scale, body proportions, and clear contact between feet and water surface. Change only the requested element and keep lighting, perspective, white balance, pose, face geometry, body proportions, and silhouette the same, and absolutely avoid added text, painterly or toon styling, CGI look, blown highlights, banding, plastic skin, overly tidy backgrounds, or floating feet while requiring consistent perspective, consistent white balance, subtle film like grain, and physically correct contact shadows and reflections. ultra-sharp close-up portrait of a woman [image uploaded] with soft, fair, luminous skin, natural rosy blush across her cheeks and nose. she has large, expressive brown eyes with subtle warm eyeshadow, soft eyeliner, and long defined lashes. her lips are glossy with a natural pink tint. her dark brown hair is styled in a voluminous messy updo with loose, wispy tendrils framing her face, creating a soft, youthful look. lighting is bright, warm, and natural, coming from the side window, casting gentle highlights on her skin and hair. she wears a red sleeveless top, layered delicate pearl necklaces, and a single visible red earring with gold detailing. background features a softly lit indoor space with curtains and a window showing blue sky, creating a fresh, airy mood. overall aesthetic is modern beauty photography with clean color tones, perfect skin texture, and high-end editorial styling. negative prompt: distorted face, unnatural freckles, incorrect hair texture, uneven lighting, heavy makeup, washed-out colors, low resolution, cluttered background, incorrect accessories, over-retouching, harsh shadows.
