- The 14 U.S.-listed bitcoin miners tracked by JPMorgan collectively surpassed a $50 billion valuation in September.
- The average bitcoin network hashrate rose 9% month-on-month to 1,031 EH/s, the bank’s analysts said.

The move was driven by a number of announcements, including Cipher Mining’s (CIFR) HPC colocation deal with Fluidstack, and IREN’s (IREN) expansion of its Cloud Services business, the report said.
The BItcoin hashrate also rose. The monthly average network hashrate “increased ~82 EH/s (+9%) m/m to an average of 1,031 EH/s in September,” analysts Reginald Smith and Charles Pearce wrote.
The hashrate refers to the total combined computational power used to mine and process transactions on a proof-of-work blockchain.
Mining profitability fell for the second month in a row as the hashrate exceeded 1000 EH/s. The bank’s analysts estimated that miners “earned an average of $49,700 per EH/s in daily block reward revenue in September, down 10% from August.” Daily block reward gross profit also slumped 17% from the month prior.
Bitfarms (BITF) outperformed the group with a 110% gain, while Cango (CANG) underperformed with an 11% decline.
Twelve of the fourteen miners in the bank’s coverage outerformed bitcoin in September, the report added.

The firm’s analysts said Fed rate cuts and regulatory momentum support digital assets, though slowing growth and political roadblocks could weigh on valuations.
What to know:
- Grayscale said Fed rate cuts support risk assets like bitcoin, but warned that slowing GDP growth, geopolitical tensions or a surprise policy reversal could pressure valuations.
- Analysts pointed to potential staking-enabled ETPs, new altcoin products and Senate action on a market structure bill as possible tailwinds for adoption.
- Much of the optimism is already priced in, meaning delays or setbacks on policy or product approvals could act as downside risks for crypto markets, the report warned.
