# Future of Mining

<figure><img src="https://3421145409-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FRTEKu4E7Fvtss3GI9CYU%2Fuploads%2FepGeaiTke4twtAxanra0%2Fmodel1.png?alt=media&amp;token=1f571154-a1a7-472a-a8d1-c4b455c0fbc8" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

As the BSV blockchain continues to evolve, the future of mining will be shaped by advancements in technology and the increasing demand for transaction processing. **Miners who invest in efficient hardware, innovative software, and robust infrastructure** are expected to thrive in this scalable ecosystem. The economic model **will increasingly rely on transaction fees**, and miners will need to adapt to ensure profitability in a landscape **where the block subsidy diminishes**.

The ongoing development of the BSV blockchain, coupled with its **commitment to scalability and low transaction fees**, will play a critical role in determining the future of mining and the overall success of the network.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://hub.bsvblockchain.org/higher-learning/bsv-academy/bsv-basics-protocol-and-design/coins-and-transactions-bitcoin-protocol-and-design/future-of-mining.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
