BTC hash rate has recently been at or above 100 exohash/s which makes it very expensive to mine, I think. When do miners start to lose money? Hashrate goes up, USD price go down what is the crossover? Anybody know?

Mining profitability is (basically) a function of four things:

- Market Price
- Difficulty
- Current hashrate
- Cost of electricity (this is the major factor that determines an individual miner's profitability at a given market price)
