Litecoin (LTC) mining profitability

What mining Litecoin pays today, read from the chain's own explorer or node: the reward and its fees, the network's hashrate on Scrypt, and what each machine on file earns on it.

A SEALMINER DL1 Air earns $1.72 a day on Litecoin and $8.06 more from merge-mined coins, which pays for electricity up to $0.11 a kWh. All Litecoin miners together are paid $180K a day.

Ranked by breakeven electricity price. Revenue is before pool fees and counts the machine's own hashrate as part of the network's. Open the calculator for your own machine, power price and difficulty growth, or see Litecoin's page for its market, supply and grade. The figures for this coin are in /api/v1/mining.json.

Attributed from each block's coinbase: the tag a pool writes into it and the address it pays, matched against CoinSpectrum's own tag list; an address paid only in one pool's tagged blocks counts for that pool in its untagged blocks too. An unnamed miner is one tag, shown as written, or one payout address that found 2% of the blocks or more. Blocks read from litecoinspace.org, read 1 h before the build. Fees, payout methods and minimums are from each pool's own pages, checked 9 November 2026; a dash means the pool's pages don't say. Pools' own hashrate figures are not used. The list is in /api/v1/mining-pools.json.
