About the VolcMiner D1 (18.5Gh)
Is the VolcMiner D1 (18.5Gh) profitable?
As of October 2026, the VolcMiner D1 (18.5Gh) earns $-1.42/day mining Scrypt at an electricity cost of $0.1/kWh. At this electricity rate it is not profitable.
How does Scrypt network hashrate change VolcMiner D1 (18.5Gh) profit?
When Scrypt network hashrate rises, your share of block rewards shrinks proportionally — the VolcMiner D1 (18.5Gh) earns less even if the coin price stays flat. The simulator above lets you scale network hashrate up or down to model competitive pressure from new miners coming online.
What if the Scrypt coin price moves?
Block rewards are paid in the native coin, so daily revenue scales with price. Doubling the price roughly doubles the VolcMiner D1 (18.5Gh)'s revenue — and because electricity is fixed, profit grows by more than 2×. The simulator above lets you set a custom price to model upside or downside.
