Why Qubic is Now the Top Profitable Coin to Mine in 2025

The mining world just shifted.

Qubic, a high-performance Layer 1 blockchain built for decentralized compute and AI, has achieved what many considered theoretical: real-world validation of Useful Proof of Work (uPoW). By merge mining with Monero (XMR) and Tari, Qubic generates real yield from useful computation and powers a deflationary token model, rather than just distributing tokens.

For miners, this means profitability.

For investors, this means sustainability.

For everyone else, it’s a preview of what decentralized infrastructure can become.

What Is Useful Proof of Work and Why Does It Matter?

Traditional Proof of Work is effective but often criticized for consuming energy without real-world utility. Qubic changes that.

With its Useful Proof of Work (uPoW) model, Qubic proves that network compute can be redirected toward meaningful tasks, such as Monero mining, while securing the chain. The result is a system where every CPU cycle contributes to both protocol security and economic productivity. This is more than a technical feat; it’s a shift in how mining can be monetized.

From Zero to Over 10% of Monero’s Global Hashrate

In just weeks, Qubic’s mining operation has exploded. Starting on Nanopool, it quickly outgrew the pool’s infrastructure, prompting a pivot to solo mining. Since May 18, Qubic’s contribution has surged from under 2% to a peak of over 10% of Monero’s global hashrate, showcasing measurable dominance in one of the most resilient proof-of-work ecosystems.

Qubic Is Now the Most Profitable Coin to Mine

The numbers speak for themselves. In Epoch 163 (May 28–June 4, 2025), Qubic miners earned $14.20 in just seven days, making $QUBIC the most profitable coin to mine. Unlike traditional mining that relies on inflationary token emissions, Qubic creates a closed economic loop where value is generated, captured, and returned to token holders.

Daily profit per CPU (based on a 7950X CPU):

• Qubic: $3.13/day (Qli pool)

• Tari: $1.65/day (merge mined)

• Monero: $0.64/day

Qubic’s profitability remains stable above $2/day, over 50% higher than mining Monero and Tari individually.

The Burn Mechanism That Powers the Ecosystem

Here’s how it works:

• Qubic miners mine Monero and Tari.

• Rewards are converted into USDT.

• USDT is used to buy $QUBIC on the open market.

• Purchased $QUBIC is burned, permanently reducing the supply.

This creates a supply sink that increases $QUBIC scarcity with every mining cycle, aligning miner incentives with investor interests.

"$XMR mining is indeed a PoC and we are going to run it for a while. After Oracle Machines are implemented we'll see if it makes sense to sell #Qubic computing power to companies. We might use it to improve @anna_aigarth instead, so "she" would be able to trade cryptocurrencies. The profit, of course, would be spent on buying qus and burning."

What Comes Next: Mining Today, AI Tomorrow

Monero mining is just the beginning. With uPoW now proven, Qubic is building toward a future that includes:

• Distributed AI model training

• Selling excess compute to enterprises

• Powering autonomous agent networks

• Enabling on-demand, decentralized infrastructure

This vision extends beyond crypto, creating a platform for real-world AI, compute, and utility powered by anyone with a CPU.

The Bottom Line for Miners and Investors

For miners, Qubic offers the highest yield in the market, with growing demand and a token that rewards contributions in real terms. For investors, uPoW transforms $QUBIC into a deflationary, utility-backed asset with a long-term roadmap tied to decentralized AI and compute.
