What I track here, in plain numbers: what it really costs to mine a bitcoin, where stablecoins actually move money, and whether tokenized assets do anything a normal fund share can't. Less narrative, more unit economics. (1/5)
Tokenized US stocks go live on OKXICE Nov 23. 56 of the 62 companies first picked objected, the Magnificent Seven included.
The six left are Coinbase, Circle, Robinhood, Strategy, BitGo and Securitize.
24/7 onchain trading of crypto stocks, for crypto people.
@HashDepot Agreed, the cut is a cushion, not a fix. At ~$31 hashprice an old rig on average power is just losing money slower. Are you seeing more people sell older units now, or hold and wait for difficulty to keep falling?
Bitcoin difficulty is on track for a ~7.7% cut within two days, the steepest since June. Blocks average 10m50s and hashprice sits near $31, close to the year's low. Old rigs are switching off. Whoever keeps hashing splits the same 450 BTC a day among fewer machines.
Three miners gave up 16 EH/s in one quarter. Bitdeer added 22.
IREN, Core Scientific and TeraWulf went from 32.8 to 16.8 EH/s in Q3 as AI revenue doubled to $478M. Bitdeer took 9.7%+ of September rewards.
AI doesn't kill mining. It changes who gets the blocks.
