In today’s video, I explain why I’m officially turning off my Kaspa miners, including my Bitmain KS5 Pros, due to declining profitability at my 8¢/kWh electric rate. At current prices and network conditions, my KS5 Pros are either breaking even or losing money, and as someone running mining as a business, it no longer makes sense to keep them online. I walk through: - Kaspa network hash rate trends - Current Kaspa price action - Profitability of KS5, KS5 Pro, KS5L, KS5M, and KS7 miners - Why residential miners are getting squeezed out - Whether it’s better to mine Kaspa or just buy the coin I also discuss broader market conditions, Bitcoin cycles, altcoin performance, and why I’m shifting focus toward Scrypt mining (L9s) instead. ⚠️ This video is not financial advice — just my real-world experience as a medium-scale home miner. 🔧 Kaspa Miners for Sale I’ve listed my KS5 Pros and KS7 Lights on my site: 👉 https://redpandamining.shop 🔹 Today’s Sponsor: Cryptominer Bros 💸 Use code: REDPANDA for $70 off each ASIC 👉 Visit https://www.cryptominerbros.com/?ref=redpanda Let me know in the comments: Are you still mining Kaspa?
