New tariffs introduced by the Trump administration in 2025 have seriously impacted Bitcoin miners in the U.S. Import tariffs on mining equipment, particularly ASIC miners from China (57.6%) and Southeast Asia (21.6%), have led to a 21% increase in equipment costs. According to Luxor Technology, the cost of mining one Bitcoin has risen to $81,650, significantly reducing miners' profit margins.
These changes are forcing American miners to seek alternatives: some are relocating operations to countries with lower tariffs, such as Canada, while others are considering the possibility of developing domestic equipment manufacturing. Meanwhile, high import costs complicate the competitiveness of the U.S. in the global mining market, where China still dominates through Bitmain, which controls 90% of the market.
Experts warn that new tariffs could slow the growth of the American mining industry, despite Trump's promises to support the cryptocurrency sector. In 2025, miners will have to optimize costs and invest in innovations to stay afloat.
