Bitcoin’s mining hashrate declined over the weekend

The mining hashrate of the leading cryptocurrency declined over the weekend. According to the data obtained from CryptoQuant, Bitcoin’s mining hashrate dropped from above `100B to below 40B ((Unit: GH/s).

The rapid decline in the mining hashrate was massive, and it was the lowest it has been since 2019. However, the hashrate partially recovered, rising above 80B at the time of this report. The decline this week signaled an over 70% drop in Bitcoin’s hashrate from its peak in mid-May. At the time, the mining hashrate peaked at 200B, the highest the cryptocurrency has experienced.

China’s ban continues to affect Bitcoin’s hashrate

The decline in Bitcoin’s hashrate over the past month was mostly due to the ban on mining activities in China. The Sichuan province became the latest Chinese province to ban mining activities. The government cut off the electricity supply to 26 mining farms in the region.

The mining restrictions in Iran could also be another major reason why Bitcoin’s hashrate has declined in recent months. At the time of this report, the leading cryptocurrency is still trading below $35k, down by nearly 50% from its all-time high of $64k achieved earlier this year.

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.

If our approach to the market doesn’t beat the overall crypto market during your subscription, we’ll give you a full refund of your membership fee. No questions asked.
