April

<p>The <a href="https://coingape.com/bitcoin-miner-capitulation-ended-on-chain-data-signals-market-recovery/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin miner capitulation</a> following the Bitcoin halving event in April remains the most watched event. As per the on-chain data, the Bitcoin hash price has touched its all-time low as several miners reportedly turned off rigs since they couldn’t cope with the rising costs and dropping rewards.</p>

<p>In a recent update, CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju mentioned that the Bitcoin hash price has reached an all-time low. This has led several mining companies to slow down their investments in mining rigs. Thus, as a hedge against the current bitcoin market uncertainty, miners have started looking for other Proof-of-Work (PoW) cryptocurrencies.</p>

<p>As reported by CoinGape, top market players like <a href="https://coingape.com/kaspa-price-jumps-13-as-bitcoin-mining-giant-marathon-digital-mining-the-altcoin/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Marathon Digital</a> have already started to pivot by mining PoW currencies like Kaspa.</p>
<p>Ju further added that the current shift by the miners doesn’t signal the end of the current cycle. He further stated that Bitcoin mining companies aren’t long-term bearish about <a href="https://coingape.com/price/bitcoin/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin</a>, however, they are just hedging and waiting for the buy-side liquidity to recover.</p>
<p>It will be interesting to see how long will the BTC miners continue to capitulate. As per QCP Capital, $58,000-$60,000 has proved to be a robust support level for Bitcoin throughout the second quarter. However, the market continues to face further selling pressure from the selling by governments as well as <a href="https://coingape.com/breaking-mt-gox-to-start-repaying-creditors-in-bitcoin-and-bch-next-week/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Mt.

<p>QCP Capital believes that Bitcoin price will see further downside to $50,000 where it finds strong support. At this price point, there could be growing interest from traditional financial institutions.</p>

<p>CryptoQuant has observed that Bitcoin miners are currently experiencing a significant decline in profitability, similar to the severe downturn witnessed in December 2022. During that period, miners faced a 7.6% drawdown in their earnings, coinciding with the lowest point of the market cycle after the FTX collapse.</p>
