According to on-chain analysis firm IntoTheBlock, miner reserves have decreased by more than 20,000 since the beginning of the week, indicating the most intense selling wave since April.

Miner sales are typically seen as events that tend to cause a downward trend in the market as they fill it with more cryptocurrency. However, miner liquidations occur regularly and may not be seen as abnormal. Additionally, miners are responsible for introducing new BTC coins into circulation. This currently happens in the form of fixed rewards worth 6.25 BTC for each block they validate and add to the Bitcoin network.
Miners need cash to cover mining expenses, which are usually high, such as machinery, energy, and leasing. Therefore, they frequently liquidate their Bitcoins.

This also coincided with the first time in six weeks that BTC had crossed above $28,000. These developments could have filled miners’ coffers sufficiently. Therefore, fearing that further price drops would affect their revenues, these players quickly liquidated their holdings.
Although miner revenue has seen a noticeable increase in recent days, it was important to put this into a broader perspective. Since the unprecedented increase in the first week of May, transaction fees collected by miners have started to decline. The nature of the market’s downward trend has limited the full utilization of the blockchain as before. As a result, transactions have significantly decreased, and the money miners earn by validating transactions has decreased as well.
