This is a free Litecoin mining calculator: a Litecoin mining profit calculator that turns your Scrypt hashrate, power draw and electricity rate into daily, monthly and yearly LTC income, cost and profit at the live difficulty and price. Dogecoin earned through merged mining is priced separately on its own page.
Litecoin mining calculator What your Scrypt hashrate means on the Litecoin network
This Litecoin mining profit calculator computes the three numbers below from the hashrate, power and electricity rate you entered above. Change an input and they change with it.
Your hashrate divided by the whole network. Every block reward is split in this proportion, which is exactly what the daily coins figure in the table is.
The average wait if you mined alone and kept the full block reward. This is why almost everyone mines in a pool: the pool pays your share every day instead.
Daily electricity cost divided by daily coins mined: the price at which this exact rig earns zero. Below it you are paying to mine; above it the difference is your margin.
Litecoin reward eras and where today sits
Litecoin halves its block subsidy every 840,000 blocks. The calculator uses the live reward, which includes fees on top of the subsidy, so the era table below marks the subsidy tier the current reward falls into.
Flip the halving simulator in the calculator to see this setup after the next cut at today's price and difficulty.
Litecoin mining profitability calculator The most you could pay per kilowatt-hour and still break even
Daily income divided by the kilowatt-hours this setup burns in a day. If your marker sits inside the coloured bar you are in profit at today's price and difficulty; the further left it sits, the more room you have when difficulty rises or the price falls.
What rising Litecoin difficulty does to this result
Litecoin retargets every 2,016 blocks, about three and a half days. When more Scrypt hashrate arrives, usually chasing the merged Dogecoin reward, the same rig earns proportionally fewer litecoins; the table applies a few plausible increases.
Litecoin work also mines Dogecoin
Litecoin
Your share of the Litecoin block reward at the live network hashrate, which is what the calculator above prices.
- ✓Halves every four years
- ✓Two-and-a-half-minute blocks
- ✓Retargets every 2,016 blocks
Dogecoin, from the same work
Pools that support auxiliary proof of work pay Dogecoin on top. For most Scrypt miners it is now the larger of the two incomes.
- –Run the Dogecoin calculator with the same inputs
- –Add the two daily profits together
- –Fixed 10,000 DOGE reward, no halving
How to use the Litecoin mining calculator
From a Scrypt hashrate to a merged-mining total in four steps.
Enter your Scrypt hashrate
The figure your pool reports for Litecoin, usually in GH/s. The page starts at 50 GH/s and 7,000 W.
Add power draw and pool fee
Wall watts and the pool percentage on the Litecoin reward; both are subtracted before profit.
Try the halving simulator
Litecoin halves every four years. The switch halves the reward at today's price and difficulty so you can see the cliff before you buy.
Add Dogecoin from the same work
Run the Dogecoin mining calculator with identical inputs and sum the two profits for the full Scrypt picture.
Calculate your Litecoin mining profit
Change the hashrate, power or electricity rate at the top of the page and every figure on this page updates with it. This Litecoin mining calculator uses live network data on every load.

About Litecoin mining and this calculator
Litecoin, forged in 2011 by Charlie Lee as the silver to Bitcoin’s gold, is a decentralized, peer‑to‑peer currency that mirrors Bitcoin’s UTXO model and security ethos while rebalancing the trade‑offs for speed, accessibility, and experimentation: it uses the memory‑intensive Scrypt proof‑of‑work algorithm (initially friendlier to CPU/GPU miners before the rise of Scrypt ASICs), targets 2.5‑minute blocks for quicker confirmations, caps supply at 84 million, and halves miner rewards every 840,000 blocks-roughly every four years, with halving epochs already landing in 2015, 2019, and 2023 to enforce predictable scarcity; difficulty retargets every 2016 blocks (about 3.5 days), helping the network adapt briskly to shifts in hash power, and its compatibility with SegWit (activated in 2017) and bech32 address formats (ltc1…) increases effective throughput and reduces fees while enabling the Lightning Network and cross‑chain atomic swaps that Litecoin helped pioneer, making it a practical rail for fast, low‑cost settlement; the 2022 launch of MimbleWimble Extension Blocks added opt‑in confidentiality for amounts and improved fungibility at the protocol edge, even as some jurisdictions tightened listing policies around privacy features; technically conservative yet bold in cadence, Litecoin closely tracks the Bitcoin Core codebase, advances via Litecoin Improvement Proposals, and sustains a broad tooling ecosystem (hardware and software wallets, payment processors, and merchant integrations), with miners often securing both Litecoin and Dogecoin in parallel through Scrypt mining economics that attract additional hash power to the shared hardware domain; typical payment workflows benefit from short confirmation intervals (for example, six confirmations settle in roughly 15 minutes), and script features like multisig and timelocks enable custody and invoicing schemes without sacrificing the simplicity that has underwritten Litecoin’s decade‑plus uptime, liquidity, and relevance; in a market that crowns and buries narratives by the week, Litecoin endures as a razor‑clean baseline for digital cash-fast enough for everyday transactions, conservative enough for long‑term holding, and seasoned enough to trial upgrades before they ascend to the wider cryptosphere.
