Bitcoin miners face cash crunch

CoinShares estimates 15-20% of global mining fleet operates at a loss at $28-30/PH/day hash price. Public miners lost $19K per BTC in Q4 2025.

Bitcoin on the higher timeframe is telling a very different story compared to the short-term charts. Sitting around 67.5k after rejecting from the 69–70k region, price is struggling to build any real continuation.

That 69k–70k zone is clearly acting as supply right now. Every push into that area is getting sold into rather than accepted, which aligns with your view. The reaction isn’t strong enough to suggest buyers are ready to reclaim control yet.

What stands out more is the broader structure. BTC is trading below all the key weekly EMAs (7, 25, 99), and they’re all trending downward. That’s not the kind of environment where sustained upside usually develops. It’s more typical to see lower highs form and pressure build gradually to the downside.

The bounce from 60k was decent, but it hasn’t changed the trend — it just relieved the oversold conditions. Now price is back in a range where decisions matter, and so far, sellers are defending higher levels more aggressively than buyers are defending support.

If this rejection continues around 69–70k, a move back toward lower support zones wouldn’t be surprising at all. The market still feels heavy, and until BTC can reclaim higher levels with conviction, downside risk remains very much in play.

"FEAR & Greed Index Formula usage"

When there is extremely fear in market and reatial investors start selling then there is an always an opportunity for instructions and the buy

when there is extremely Greed seen in market the the retail buy and buy and the institutions & 🐋whales starts selling

you should use your investment very wisely in the current situation on one side market is facing selling pressure on the other side geopolitical tension is going on btw 🇮🇱 Israel and Iran 🇮🇷

which creates many questions

in such conditions you should use only 10% portfolio in trading the remaining 90% everyone should keep for the lower bottom between 35k to 45k round about area

$FET surged due to the proposed merger with SingularityNET ($AGIX) and Ocean Protocol ($OCEAN) to form the Artificial Superintelligence (ASI) Alliance. Big move for decentralized AI!

IREN’s quiet moat isn’t GPUs, it’s power rights: 2,900 MW queued in Texas lets them rent electricity to AI at premium “compute” rates while others hunt sockets. - The overlooked tell is daily bitcoin liquidation funding capex, so Microsoft‑backed AI contracts can scale without starving cash, even as dilution headlines distract from per‑share value lift when fleets go live.

AI competes with Bitcoin mining for electricity- BUT it does not compete for adoption/price, and it does not compete for compute efficiency- in fact it benefits and reinforces Bitcoin through the latter. Few ⚡️

People worry about AI becoming evil. That’s the wrong fear. AI doesn’t choose good or evil. It just does what it’s told. So the real question is simple. Who is doing the telling. Save in #bitcoin and be the one doing the telling!

Indeed, some BTC mining companies have shifted toward AI, but this is not unique to the current bear market—it’s a pattern we’ve seen before. Globally, approximately 15–20% of mining capacity is currently unprofitable (according to CoinShares), making operations with outdated equipment or high electricity costs particularly challenging. At the same time, some miners are repurposing idle power or data center infrastructure for AI training and inference, as AI contracts offer more stable and predictable revenue streams. Recent developments show that certain mining firms have already signed AI/HPC contracts totaling over $70 billion, resulting in AI revenue surpassing mining income for some. Additionally, the surge in AI demand aligns well with miners’ existing advantages—such as low-cost power contracts, pre-existing data centers, cooling systems, and operational expertise. For these companies, this shift is not an abandonment of BTC or mere speculation, but a strategic move for survival. Similar transitions occurred in the past—during 2018/19 or 2022, miners experimented with cloud services, other crypto mining ventures, or energy projects. Almost every halving cycle sees a wave of miners exit, while those who remain are typically rewarded more handsomely in the future. The miners who stay are often the most efficient—those with lower electricity costs, newer machines, and reduced leverage. As weaker capacity is cleared from the network, survivors receive a larger share of rewards. There are also purists who remain solely focused on mining. They argue that selling hashing power or BTC to chase AI is short-sighted—unless under severe financial pressure. In the long term, mining remains more compelling: BTC’s security and scarcity ultimately depend on the ASIC network, whereas AI relies on general-purpose hardware, which faces fiercer competition and faster depreciation. Of course, reality is harsh: if BTC remains below $80,000 for an extended period, it will place further pressure on miners, leading to even more capacity being shut down.

we spent years trying to explain why crypto matters to people who didn't care AI is about to do the same thing except this time they can't just say "I don't understand it" and move on AI touches everyones job, everyones income, everyones daily life your uncle that called Bitcoin a scam in 2017 is about to have a very uncomfortable conversation with his boss technology trends come and go. this one doesn't have an undo button crypto was the rehearsal. this is the real thing
