Hashprice is down, Bitcoin is under $100k, and many miners are stressed. In this episode, Jesse talks with Tom Merkle from Hashbranch about how good operators survive these conditions — and why low hashprice can actually create better entry points. (At release, hashprice even sits at $36/PH/day — Nov 20, 2025.)
Tom explains what Hashbranch really does for hosting sites: filling rack space, handling support tickets, coordinating deployments, and fixing the communication problems that often hurt both hosts and clients. They also walk through the “core four” of mining: planning your numbers, finding the right host, getting machines set up the right way, and keeping clean records.
Tom shares a real example of redeploying 13,000 older S19s to a cheaper site to keep them profitable, and they finish with the new Hashbranch dashboard that gives miners clear visibility into costs, uptime, and machine status.
