I don't think the stats are so accurate especially for those at the top spot. I believe some miners use VPNs and most of them have so many IP address for the US, some European countries and a few from Asia.

It would be interesting to see the average electricity tariffs per kWh for those countries

Interesting list. Even Bitcoin mining superpowers like the US, Russia, and China are still at the top. As for the others below, they likely have some of the lowest electricity rates in the world. If not, then it could be a VPN-related issue, which might make the data inaccurate, as mentioned earlier.

I doubt there are that many miner use VPN, since it could add some latency if they're not being careful. But the bigger concern is hashrateindex.com doesn't mention source of the data. I assume the data is only from Luxor (mentioned on bottom of the article), so the actual distribution could be different than what they show.

You're right that this data isn't accurate. Even in Russia, there's a lot of mixed data about underground mining, and no one will tell you the exact figures.

In China, mining is officially banned, so all this mining is considered underground Smiley
If you can share more precise data, we will be happy to study it.

You may actually be correct however I don’t think majority of miners are actually using VPN however, little percentage may actually be using and if they are using they will choose US as location.


As for the others below, they likely have some of the lowest electricity rates in the world. If not, then it could be a VPN-related issue, which might make the data inaccurate, as mentioned earlier.

Electricity is actually one of the major problem majority of the under developed countries are facing and miners over their are really struggling to min, as we all know electricity is very important in mining, VPN related issue may not actually be responsible because I believe majority of miners don’t use VPN just little percentage of miners those.

I get Paraguay, they've got cheap hydro but what's up with Oman and UAE? I thought heat is the enemy of mining hardware

Air cooling is ineffective at temperatures above 40 degrees Celsius. Therefore, they use immersion cooling.
These countries have government-supported mining programs, and miners are using excess energy that would otherwise be wasted. Technologies for converting flare gas into electricity at oil wells are also being used.
