Most solo miners no longer seek profitability. They mine it because they love Bitcoin and want to mine it for as long as possible, holding the reward for the future. The mining farms mine Bitcoin professionally. Even if it doesn't look profitable at first glance, it can actually be made profitable. They chose a place where the electricity cost is the lowest on earth. I mean, they look for the cheapest electricity, and then they hold the mining reward as long as the market doesn't hit a new ATH or the company thinks they are not in profit yet. As soon as the company realize that they can sell in profit, they dump their coins on bull market.
Yes individual miners usually do so as they wish to keep network alive and have their coins in long run, despite increasing electricity costs going above current value of Bitcoin. However, professional mining farms are more like large corporations, as they move to locations where electricity is cheapest in world and take advantage of special offers to make their costs as low as possible. These large farms tend to hold on to their Bitcoin until new high and then sell their coins making profit and buying better equipment. Although solo miners contribute to decentralization of Bitcoin, mining farms supply enormous amount of power to make network safe.

If you just want to be part of those who can be called miners, try those lottery mining. But, it's not a guaranteed you'll mine a block but as its name, it's random if you get lucky.

We all know that the asic miners are quite expensive and even owning one would probably just dealt you to losses if your electricity is quite expensive.

So what others do is, instead they buy miners, they buy Bitcoin and just hold it. And that's more profitable if you'd calculate it but it feels different when you call yourself a miner isn't it?

The economic realities split the mining world in two, The farms follow the money globally, which secures the chain but centralizes risk, the solo miners, even with a tiny slice, keep the dream of permissionless mining alive the network's health depends on both existing.

I feel like you just used AI and copied and pasted my response, and asked the AI to generate a response agreeing with my point. I don't see anything else in your response. You essentially said the same thing I posted, but you changed the wording slightly. Solo miners aren't mining just because they want to keep the network alive; they also mine for profit and passion. Even if they stop mining Bitcoin, the network will still stay alive. How many solo miners can mine a block today? Almost all the blocks are mined by the large farms.
