The amount of money earned from mining Bitcoin (CRYPTO: $BTC) has fallen to a 10-year low.
Data from onchain analytics platform Glassnode shows that fees as a proportion of miner revenue are at their lowest level since 2016 after falling to 0.52%.
Cryptocurrency miners, who produce new tokens by completing complex mathematical problems using banks of high-powered computers, face pressure as BTC's price declines.

Rising electricity costs in much of the world are also hurting Bitcoin mining profits and forcing smaller players out of the market, according to Glassnode.
Fees from minting new Bitcoin now comprise less than 1% of most miner's revenue.
