Dogecoin Hashrate Hits New All-Time High

The Dogecoin (DOGE) hashrate reached a record high of 966.1116T on Jan. 25.

BitInfoCharts reports that the Dogecoin hashrate, which typically ranged between 750-850T over the past 6 months, has seen occasional fluctuations, including both drops and sharp rebounds.

There was a significant downturn on Dec. 20, 2023 as the Dogecoin hashrate plummeted to 657T. Simultaneously, the coin’s price experienced a decline, reaching $0.09029, compared to its value of $0.09706 on Dec. 17.

Hashrate is a metric used to gauge the collective processing power of all machines engaged in mining. A higher Dogecoin hashrate indicates increased difficulty in mining, requiring more power. Conversely, a lower hashrate suggests easier mining conditions for the coin.

Can a high Dogecoin hashrate affect the price?

Miners often find advantages when the hashrate is low and an asset’s price is relatively high. However, the increasing difficulty in coin mining each year poses challenges for Bitcoin and other assets.

As per Whattomine, Dogecoin mining appears less profitable. With a hashrate of 9.45 Gh/s and power consumption at 3425.0, the weekly profit stands at $15.66 against a cost of $57.54. When viewed as a monthly income, the profit is $67.12, with costs matching at $67.12.

In addition, it’s important to note the increasing complexity of mining, demanding more powerful and costly equipment for efficient coin extraction.

Interestingly, the profit margin is higher when dual-mining DOGE and Litecoin (LTC). The weekly profit jumps to $34.08, surpassing the $15.66 when mining only one coin. Despite the consistent cost at $57.54 in both scenarios, the monthly profit spikes to $146.04.

The most prominent and widely used mining pool for DOGE is ViaBTC, providing an option for merged mining with LTC in various modes. For PPS+, there’s a 4% commission, PPLNS carries a 2% commission, and solo mining incurs a 1% commission. 

Generally, the solo option demands robust and modern equipment, making it more intricate. In collaborative options, mining is linked to the combined processing power of multiple computers.

The popularity of DOGE mining holds sway over the coin’s value. A surge in miners increases the complexity and elevates the hashrate. Consequently, the cryptocurrency becomes less accessible to mine, potentially limiting its demand. Nevertheless, the cryptocurrency market is subject to various factors capable of triggering sharp fluctuations, either in a downturn or an upswing.
