What a miner earns today.

Net per day, after power:

Antminer Z15 Pro, today$42.68
After the Nov 2028 halving$24.68

The halving cuts the miners' take by 37.5%, not half. Why.

At $0.08 per kWh and a 1% pool fee, at today's hashrate and price. Network: 31.09 GSol/s, 1,149 blocks in 24 h, 1,440 ZEC a day to miners ($1.8M). As of 2 Nov, 12:53 UTC.

The halving, properly

A 37.5% cut, not 50%.

The block subsidy halves, but the 20% that goes to grants and the coinholder fund ends at the same point, so miners go from 80% of the issuance to 100% of half as much: 1,440 to 900 ZEC a day.

New ZEC per day, to scale.

Today
1,440 to miners360

The 360 goes to grants and the coinholder fund.

From Nov 2028, in about 753 days
900 to miners−540

Half the new ZEC, all of it to miners: 540 a day less than today, −37.5%.
