Mining Hashrate Calculator

Work out what your hashrate means on a coin’s network: your share, the coins it mines a day, your odds of finding a block alone, and the hashrate it takes to reach a target.

Your machines

Scrypt mining. Fills in the block reward, block time and units.

Optional: shows the efficiency.

Optional: shows the hashrate and machines it takes.

Your hashrate

Choose a coin, enter your machines’ hashrate and the network hashrate, then choose Calculate. Your figures appear here.

Averages: blocks come by luck, so a solo miner’s wait can be much shorter or longer, and a pool pays its share less a fee. The block rewards filled in are those of November 2026, so check them. To turn the coins into rupees after electricity and tax, use the Crypto Mining Profit Calculator.

How it is calculated

Hashrate is how many guesses a second a machine makes at the puzzle that wins a block. Your share of all the guesses on the network is your share of the blocks, on average, whether you mine in a pool or alone.

  • Total hashrate = hashrate per machine × machines
  • Your share = total hashrate ÷ network hashrate, both in hashes per second
  • Coins a day = your share × 86,400 ÷ block time × block reward
  • Solo: average wait for a block = block time ÷ your share
  • Solo: chance of a block in a day = 1 − e^(−blocks a day × your share)
  • Efficiency = power per machine ÷ hashrate per machine, in joules per hash unit
  • Hashrate for a target = target coins a day ÷ (blocks a day × block reward) × network hashrate

Frequently asked questions

Short answers on hashrate and what it mines.

What your hashrate is worth on a coin’s network. Take two Litecoin machines of 9.5 GH/s each on a network of 2,500 TH/s. Together they do 19 GH/s, 1 in 1,31,579 of the network, which mines about 0.02736 LTC a day in a pool. Mining alone, they would find a block on average every 7 months 16 days, with a 0.437% chance on any given day. To mine 0.1 LTC a day would take 69.44 GH/s, or 8 such machines.

Hashes per second, in steps of a thousand: 1 kH/s is 1,000 H/s, then MH/s (a million), GH/s (a billion), TH/s (a trillion), PH/s and EH/s (1018). Bitcoin machines are rated in TH/s and its network in EH/s; Litecoin and Dogecoin machines in GH/s; Monero computers in kH/s. Choosing a coin sets the usual units, and the calculator converts between them.

A pool shares out its blocks by hashrate, so you receive your share steadily, less a fee. Mining solo you keep a whole block when you find one, but how long that takes is down to luck: the wait shown is an average, and you could find one tomorrow or not for years. The chance in a day shows how rare a block is for a small miner, which is why almost everyone mines in a pool.

Efficiency is the energy a machine uses for each unit of hashing: watts divided by hashrate, in joules per hash. Lower is better. For Bitcoin, recent machines use well under 20 J/TH, while older ones use 30 J/TH or more and soon stop paying as electricity and the network grow. Compare machines on the same coin and unit; the Mining Electricity Cost Calculator turns their power into a bill.

Pools estimate your hashrate from the work you send, which varies from minute to minute, and machines run a little above or below their rating with temperature and settings. The network hashrate is also an estimate from how fast blocks are found. Over a day or more the figures settle close to these averages.

Use the Crypto Mining Profit Calculator: it takes the same hashrate, network and coin, adds the price, the pool fee and your electricity, and works out the profit after India’s 30% tax.
