December proved to be a busy month for Bitcoin miners, holidays notwithstanding. Bitcoin’s price fell 3.6% during December, from $17,168 to $16,547. Miners were cushioned by this continued price pressure by a favorable 7.3% decrease in mining difficulty,
finishing the month 4.3% lower than the previous month.
DMG Blockchain (DMGI) continued their good November performance and ended 2022 by having the highest monthly performance by a miner in terms of production by operational EH/s, for December too. They successfully mined 100 BTC in a calendar month for the first time
and were very close to achieving their end of year planned hashrate total of 1 EH/s.
Strong monthly operational performances from Bitfarms (BITF), CleanSpark (CLSK) and Hive Blockchain (HIVE), made up the next three places.
