Bitcoin's halving event in 2024 reduces the block reward to 3,125 BTC, significantly slowing the supply of new BTC and impacting mining profitability. The Cointelegraph Research report delves into the economic and technical landscape of the mining ecosystem, highlighting advances in mining hardware, such as increased energy efficiency and higher hashrate of the Antminer S21 Pro. Despite this progress, high fees discourage retail investor participation, leading to alternatives such as GoMining's gamification approach. GoMining tokenizes hashrate into NFTs, offering tradable and transferable ownership of mining power, with options for solo and pool mining modes.
