Zcash mining is now about twice as profitable per rig and four times per MWh compared to Bitcoin mining.

Zcash mining has become significantly more profitable than Bitcoin mining on an individual rig basis, with miners earning roughly twice as much per rig and about four times more per megawatt hour, according to Grayscale Research. This increased profitability has led to a more than 2.5-fold rise in Zcash mining activity this year. The Zcash token price has also surged 14% over the past week, boosting mining rewards and network security. However, some analysts warn that Zcash's rapid price rise may face a correction after reaching high levels.
