Only big mining farms are profitable now. No wonder that majority of Bitcoins is mined in China, they are leading mining country. Individual mining isn't profitable anymore, it's too much electricity and resources consuming for a rather small profit. So it's much better to choose some other option to make money with Bitcoin.
I can't imagine how mining companies in China still surviving these days and can manage their bills though we know that their electricity charges are also high the same with the other country. What are these people do to save their expenses and still able to compete with others and besides, they are the number 1 Bitcoin miners at this time. Maybe we think that their country leaders are supporting crypto more than a thing that they give support to others which gives them to cut their charges. Because if that so, no way that they can't make it through and become profitable. And indeed you're right, small mining scales have a lesser chance to grow than those who have already been established well.
