Bitcoin (still) at $58k
Months of sideways price action are starting to feel like years. Until recently 2024 had no shortage of meaningful events and narratives: red-hot price action to start the year, the quadrennial halving in April, and the Bitcoin conference in July. Now it seems as if sentiment is starting to cool off, and the reality of six months of uneventful price action is starting to set in.
Miners Profit During Sideways Markets
This is a good time to reiterate one of the underappreciated benefits of Bitcoin mining: mining nets positive returns during sideways markets. While spot Bitcoin holders have seen no notable changes in their portfolio during this sideways regime, Bitcoin miners continue to produce BTC for less in electricity than the market price, netting consistently positive returns.
Hash Ribbons
This summer we saw a hash ribbon, a metric that indicates that miners are capitulating in the aggregate. We’ve seen hashrate recovery well since the end of the capitulation and we’re now on track for a 2nd consecutive positive difficulty adjustment. Miners that survived the halving are deploying additional capital, upgrading their ASICs, and getting prepared for the bull market.

The 3-day weekend may be over, but the party is just getting started. All ASICs purchased before the end of this week will receive a significant discount on their hosting rate:

The table below compares the estimated monthly economics of Bitcoin mining rigs when mining with the discounted hosting rate vs mining with the typical hosting rate:
