Over the week, data from CoinMetrics indicated that Bitcoin miners generated a record $354.4 million, in terms of weekly revenue. Earlier, miners earned $1.1 billion in revenue in January, which was a 62% increase from the previous figures estimated in December 2020.
With regard to the surge in miner profits, co-founder of mining company Luxor Technology, Ethan Vera, explained the reason behind the increase in revenue. He said in a report that January and February this year have been “record months” for most Bitcoin miners and that they are “incredibly bullish” on the future of the mining sector.
According to Vera, Bitcoin miners are apparently “taking all of their profits and reinvesting it.” In order to “to grow future hashrate,” miners are using the increase in profits to put it back into their business.
