Russian miners in banned regions, holding 20% of global hashrate (120 EH/s), face a split: 60% (72 EH/s) may relocate to compliant regions like Kazakhstan, with $0.04/kWh costs, leveraging 3nm chip efficiency (0.02 J/GH), per prior data. The remaining 40% (48 EH/s), facing $5 million relocation costs, could exit crypto mining—20% (24 EH/s) may shift to AI computing, earning $30 million monthly, while 20% (24 EH/s) enter renewable energy sectors, per prior trends. Relocation sustains 70% of Russia’s $500 million mining revenue, but 30% of exiting miners risk $150 million in losses. By 2026, 80% of displaced miners may stabilize in new regions, though 10% more could exit if Bitcoin drops 15% to $65,000, further shrinking Russia’s 5% hashrate share.
