Could you please elaborate on the process of how crypto miners actually earn money? I'm curious to understand the economics behind it. Do miners receive direct payments for their computational efforts? Or is there a more intricate system at play? I'm also interested in knowing if the amount of money miners earn is fixed or if it fluctuates based on certain factors. Would you mind explaining these details to me?

As the network's hashing power increases, so does the difficulty level, making it increasingly challenging for individual miners to secure rewards.
