The halving of Bitcoin and the cooling of Runes have caused the operating costs of various mining machines to approach their shutdown prices

PANews reported on April 29 that according to Wu, citing f2pool data, after the Bitcoin halving, the operating costs of various mining machines, including Antminer S19, T19, Shenma M33S+ and M30S+, have been close to their shutdown prices, based on an electricity price of $0.06 per kWh.
