i don't think so because miners aren't publicly revealing their IP addresses. if you are running a big mining pool you can come up with some sort of statistics based on their IP addresses when they connect to your server but that still is going to be one mining pool, not all of them and even if they do this, they still don't release the statistics.

all you can do is to make an estimation about it. for example considering the information we have such as mining "farms", electricity cost,... you can make an assessment. just remember that you can't do it based on hashrate distribution that the charts like the one on blockchain.com shows. those show the mining "pool" stats not "miners". mining pools are like servers that miners from anywhere can connect to.

alot of people use to think (some still foolishly do) that slush,f2pool and antpool, were all "china"

f2pool is a server with users worldwide, so althought the server may be on a chinse registered domain. the asics are world wide
slush is a server with users worldwide, and the server is managed in thailand with the asics are world wide
antpool, tagged as china, but blockdata reveals several farms. company reveal facilities in iceland georgia san fran and mongolia

so if you read any racist propaganda about "china", just treat it as the usual 'fox news' type of racism

Unfortunately, there is no way to read direct statistics about the country in which the miners are located. I think that this information can have only mining pools, but even that information may not be true, if miner know how to mask his IP.

Will be available bitcoin legal transaction if country have allowed for mining, by the way right now is not the best time for mining because lower price and we have pay expensive tools for mining, we need much money and have waiting long time to get profit with mining, we can stop mining few time and wait until bitcoin or altcoin really at higher price again.

there are big miners in China mainly because of the lower electricity cost in certain places and also easier access to ASIC miners that come out of China from Bitmain but there is no way of telling if they are really the biggest specially now that the competition has grown a lot in the past couple of years.
most of those news media outlets are making a guess (mainly a mistake) by looking at the mining pool stats. for example they look at antpool and think because it has a high percentage then it must be all in China!!!

It's very difficult to know how many miners in all countries because its difficult to detect them. If you really interested about the percent of wise miners in all countries try look in internet and search because even me and many people in this forum do not know how many percent it is.

I have ever seen this type of information in the internet. Miners basically don't disclose their ip addresses. This information is not necessary for how many people mine in a country. Miners are sophisticated so they hide their ip information.

according to news articles, China might have majority of Bitcoin miners now a days.

That's just news but not confirmed fact. The notion that most miners come from China is because most of the hardware is coming from them, and a lot of people think that the Chinese buy their own hardware to mine on their own soil, however that's not the case. There are large farms in China and there are also large farms in the US, Iceland, Mongolia, some parts of Japan, Russia and other remote places where electricity is cheap and mining conditions/costs is relatively suited for mining as well. There are no reliable statistics as to where these miners are located and what percentage do they hold on the current network, but yeah, not everything is in China.

Miners usually do everything anonymously, since in many countries it is still forbidden, there was a case when Bitcoin farms were removed, and these are big losses. Yes, and the statistics about this I get lost that there is where to read.

I have a belief that China has got the increased number of miners compared to many other countries. In a recent flood complete mining firm operating in China got affected due to rain. Everything were taken to the scrap, and some news rolled out stating that bitcoin price might fall as it is one among the top mining firm.
