Ethereum Classic Mining Profit Calculator - Key Variables
Every coin has its own set of network-specific variables that drive its profitability calculation. Here is what makes the Ethereum Classic calculation distinct — and what to watch when conditions change.
Block Reward
1.5892 ETC
The current Ethereum Classic block reward is the number of ETC awarded to the miner who finds each block. This is the raw revenue source for every Ethereum Classic mining profitability calculation on this page. If Ethereum Classic has a halving or emission reduction scheduled, you can simulate the post-halving profit by clicking the Simulate Halving button in the calculator — it halves the block reward and immediately recalculates your daily, monthly, and yearly Ethereum Classic mining profit.
Network Hashrate
159.04 H/s
The total Ethereum Classic network hashrate is the denominator in the network share calculation: your hashrate divided by this figure gives your share of each block. As more hardware joins the Ethereum Classic network, this number rises and your individual share shrinks — even if your own hashrate stays constant. The Ethereum Classic profit calculator uses the live network hashrate so your calculation always reflects today's competitive landscape, not an average from last week.
Ethereum Classic Price
$6.18
The live Ethereum Classic price converts ETC earnings into fiat revenue. A 10% move in the Ethereum Classic price changes your gross revenue by exactly 10% with no change to your hardware, hashrate, or costs. This means Ethereum Classic mining profitability is highly sensitive to price — the calculator updates continuously as the price feeds refresh, so you are always seeing what your setup earns at today's Ethereum Classic market value, not yesterday's close.
Algorithm
Etchash
The Ethereum Classic network runs on the Etchash algorithm, which determines what hardware is competitive for Ethereum Classic mining. Enter the hashrate your specific hardware produces on Etchash into the calculator above — not a generic rated speed — for the most accurate Ethereum Classic profitability calculation. If you are unsure of your hardware's Etchash hashrate, check the manufacturer's specifications or community benchmarks for your exact model.
Electricity Cost
Power is the only ongoing cost fully within your control in any Ethereum Classic mining profit calculation. A difference of $0.01/kWh may look small, but across a 24-hour mining day it compounds directly against your net earnings. Enter your electricity rate to three decimal places in the Power field of the Ethereum Classic calculator to get the most precise after-cost profitability figure. To find your breakeven kWh rate — the maximum electricity cost at which Ethereum Classic mining still earns a positive return — raise the kWh input incrementally until the daily profit column reaches zero.
Pool Fee
Most Ethereum Classic miners use a mining pool rather than solo mining, and pools charge a percentage of gross ETC rewards — typically 1–3%. The Ethereum Classic profit calculator deducts your pool fee from gross revenue before subtracting electricity, mirroring the exact order your pool applies it. Enter your real pool's fee to make the Ethereum Classic mining calculation operationally accurate rather than a theoretical gross estimate. The Pool Fees column in the results table shows the exact ETC or fiat amount deducted per period.
How to Calculate Ethereum Classic Mining Profitability
Use the calculator above in four steps to get an accurate Ethereum Classic mining profitability estimate.
Enter your hashrate
Input your hardware's hashrate under "Your Setup" and pick the matching unit (GH/s, TH/s, etc.). This is the single biggest factor in your Ethereum Classic mining profitability calculation.
Add power draw and pool fee
Enter your hardware's power consumption in watts and your pool's fee percentage. Your electricity rate uses the same $/kWh setting from the ASIC Miners page, so both stay in sync.
Choose Network or Difficulty mode
We pre-fill block reward, block time, and network hashrate for you. Click Use Difficulty to switch to a difficulty-based calculation instead - both methods estimate the same Ethereum Classic mining profit calculation from different inputs.
Simulate a halving or switch units
Click Simulate Halving to see post-halving earnings, or click Show Coins to view your results in ETC instead of USD.
There are two ways to calculate Ethereum Classic mining profitability, and this calculator supports both. The network-share method (the default "Use Network" mode) estimates your reward by comparing your hashrate to the total network hashrate over a given block time: the larger your share of the network's total hashrate, the larger your share of each block reward. The difficulty-based method calculates your expected reward directly from the block reward and the current network difficulty, which is often preferred for longer-term forecasts since difficulty already reflects total network competition without needing a separate block time input. Both methods should converge on a similar Ethereum Classic profit estimate when fed accurate, up-to-date network data - which is exactly what this calculator pre-fills for you automatically.
The halving simulator is particularly useful for Ethereum Classic and any other coin with a scheduled reduction in block reward: toggling it recalculates every profit figure using half the current block reward, so you can see in advance how your Ethereum Classic mining profitability calculation would change the moment a halving occurs, rather than being surprised by it. Combined with the Show Coins toggle, which displays your earnings in raw ETC rather than converted to USD, you get a complete picture of both your coin-denominated and fiat-denominated returns from a single Ethereum Classic hashrate profit calculator.
Reading Your Ethereum Classic Mining Calculator Results
The results table is the output of your Ethereum Classic profitability calculation. Here is what each column and row tells you — and how to use the figures to make a real decision.
Daily Profit Column
The Daily row's Profit column is the most important output of the Ethereum Classic mining profitability calculator: it is your gross ETC revenue minus pool fees minus 24-hour electricity cost. A positive number means Ethereum Classic mining is currently covering its running costs at your entered kWh rate. A negative number — shown in red — means the electricity cost of running your hardware today exceeds what the Ethereum Classic network pays out. The absolute value of a negative figure tells you exactly how much you are spending per day above what you earn.
Monthly & Yearly Projections
The monthly and yearly rows in the Ethereum Classic mining calculator scale linearly from the daily figure, assuming the same network conditions hold. They are most useful for hardware ROI planning: divide your equipment cost by the monthly net profit to get an approximate payback period in months at current Ethereum Classic mining profitability. Treat these as a constant-conditions baseline — in practice, both the Ethereum Classic price and network difficulty will shift, so consider running a best-case and worst-case scenario by manually adjusting the network hashrate or price fields.
Coin Output vs. Fiat Revenue
Toggle between "Show Currency" and "Show Coins" at the top of the Ethereum Classic calculator to switch between two views of the same result. The currency view shows your daily, monthly, and yearly earnings and costs in your chosen fiat or crypto denomination — useful for covering electricity bills and planning cash flow. The coin view shows how many ETC you accumulate per period — useful if you plan to hold mined Ethereum Classic and are more interested in stack size than immediate fiat value.
Halving & Scenario Simulation
The Simulate Halving button cuts the Ethereum Classic block reward in half and instantly recalculates every row in the Ethereum Classic mining profitability calculator — showing you what your current setup would earn after a halving event at today's price and difficulty. This is the fastest way to stress-test whether your Ethereum Classic mining operation would remain profitable post-halving without requiring any price increase to compensate. You can also manually override any network field — block reward, difficulty, network hashrate — to model any future scenario directly in the Ethereum Classic calculator.
A practical technique for any Ethereum Classic mining calculation is to use the electricity input as a breakeven finder rather than just a cost field. With your real hashrate and power draw entered, incrementally raise the kWh rate until the Daily Profit figure reaches zero. The rate at which this happens is your Ethereum Classic mining breakeven electricity cost — the maximum you can pay per kWh before this coin becomes unprofitable at current network conditions. If your actual rate is well below that threshold, you have a comfortable margin against both price drops and difficulty increases. If it is close, even a modest Ethereum Classic price decline or network growth could push you into loss territory.
The Income column in the results table shows gross Ethereum Classic mining revenue before any deductions — useful for understanding the theoretical maximum your hashrate could earn on this network if electricity and pool costs were zero. Comparing the Income and Profit columns side by side immediately shows how much of your gross ETC earnings are consumed by operating costs. For miners evaluating whether to upgrade hardware, this ratio — gross income versus net profit — is more informative than the net profit figure alone, because it shows how sensitive your Ethereum Classic profitability is to cost changes versus network changes.

Ethereum Classic Mining Profitability Calculator — How It Works
Every figure in the Ethereum Classic profit calculator is derived from a live calculation — not a cached estimate.
The Ethereum Classic mining profitability calculator takes four inputs from you — your hashrate, your hardware's power draw in watts, your electricity cost per kWh, and your pool fee percentage — and combines them with three live network values fetched directly from the Ethereum Classic blockchain: the current block reward of 1.5892 ETC, the current network hashrate of 159.04 H/s, and the live Ethereum Classic price of $6.18. It uses these values to determine your expected share of daily rewards and convert them into gross revenue in your chosen currency.
Two independent calculation methods run in parallel in this Ethereum Classic profit calculator, giving you deeper insight into current conditions. One approach estimates your portion of the network's rewards for a fast, intuitive overview. The other leverages the raw network difficulty for greater accuracy when hashpower fluctuates rapidly. You can switch between the two using the Use Network / Use Difficulty button at the top of the calculator and instantly see how it affects your Ethereum Classic mining profitability.
From gross revenue, the Ethereum Classic calculator deducts your pool fee and electricity costs to deliver your true net daily Ethereum Classic mining profit after all expenses. The same accurate logic automatically scales to weekly, monthly, and yearly projections in the results table below — making it effortless to model long-term ROI for your specific Ethereum Classic mining setup.

Ethereum Classic (ETC) — More Information
Ethereum Classic mining — useful things to know
Ethereum Classic is the unbroken continuation of Ethereum’s original chain after the 2016 DAO exploit and disputed hard fork, keeping an immutable ledger under the “code is law” principle and treating on-chain history as a record that must not be altered, even when outcomes are uncomfortable; it runs proof-of-work with the Etchash algorithm, where miners validate transactions and secure the network, and after Ethereum’s 2022 transition to proof-of-stake many miners migrated to ETC, pushing hashrate materially higher and reinforcing censorship resistance in practice as blocks arrive roughly every 13 seconds; its EVM remains Turing-complete and compatible with common Ethereum tooling, so developers can write smart contracts in Solidity, deploy standard tokens and dApps, and leverage familiar libraries and wallets, while protocol upgrades such as Atlantis, Agharta, and Phoenix brought broad EVM parity, and ECIP-1099 introduced Etchash to sustain GPU mining and adjust DAG growth; the network typically processes on the order of a dozen transactions per second with comparatively low fees, and it operates under a fixed monetary policy defined in ECIP-1017 that caps supply near 210.7 million ETC by reducing block rewards by 20% every 5 million blocks (the 5M20 schedule), offering predictable issuance and engineered scarcity; after experiencing several deep reorganizations and 51% attacks in 2019–2020, the ecosystem implemented defenses like Modified Exponential Subjective Scoring to disincentivize long reorgs and strengthened monitoring and client diversity, and governance continues through the open ECIP process with contributions from independent teams and organizations such as ETC Cooperative; although its developer community and application layer are smaller than Ethereum’s and this can slow feature velocity and limit the breadth of DeFi and NFT activity, Ethereum Classic’s live network today reflects a clear commitment to decentralization, immutability, and credible neutrality, securing programmable value with proof-of-work while preserving the original ethos that first defined the Ethereum experiment.
