Even though the wallet from which the coins are left, is listed as “unknown,” IT Tech was able to establish that the BTCs were sent from the Poolin mining pool. Thus, this large amount could be sold on the market.

Based on the cost of mining bitcoin and its current price, we can conclude that miners have been operating at a loss for some time. The loss from each mined coin is more than $2 thousand.

There is a graph that reflects the facts of capitulation for four years. This event coincided with the moment when bitcoin was at the bottom. After that, not immediately, but in all cases, the growth started.

As for the current situation, the surrender is at a very early stage. In this regard, we can conclude that there is a positive prospect, but it takes time to implement it.
