The share of our machine-hours that were rented on MiningRigRentals rather than mining for the pool.
24.5% on Sep 20, 2026.
Every machine we host is listed for rent, and mines for the pool whenever nobody has rented it. This is the share of hours that went to renters. It rises when the rental premium does, because the listing price tracks the pool hashprice and renters bite when they need hashrate.
