Here’s the Truth</a> appeared first on <a href="https://coinpedia.org">Coinpedia Fintech News</a></p> 
<p>With only a week remaining until the <a href="https://coinpedia.org/beginners-guide/what-is-bitcoin-halving/">Bitcoin halving</a>, the cryptocurrency market is on edge as <a href="https://coinpedia.org/price-prediction/bitcoin-price-prediction/">Bitcoin</a> sits around $70,000, showing an unusual calmness before the storm. However, underneath this surface tranquility, miners are grappling with a daunting challenge: the soaring mining difficulty that threatens their profits post-halving.</p> 
<p>Here’s everything you need to know about this.</p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-miners-dilemma-the-80-000-threshold"><strong>Miners’ Dilemma: The $80,000 Threshold</strong></h2> 
<p>Kenn Bosak, a prominent figure in the crypto world, issues a warning that Bitcoin must maintain a price above $80,000 after the halving to keep mining profitable. Falling short of this mark, he cautions, could spell financial disaster for miners, pushing them toward bankruptcy.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-the-three-possible-scenarios">The Three Possible Scenarios</h2> 
<p>Bosak outlines three scenarios based on Bitcoin’s current price trend:</p> 
<ol> 
 <li><strong>Staying Strong:</strong> If Bitcoin manages to stay above $80,000, miners can remain profitable and keep the mining ecosystem healthy.</li> 
 <li><strong>Facing Financial Strain:</strong> If Bitcoin’s price sharply drops below $80,000, <a href="https://www.coinwarz.com/mining/bitcoin/difficulty-chart">miners</a> may struggle financially, risking bankruptcy. The recent surge in mining difficulty, reaching 86.39 trillion hash marks, adds to the challenge.</li> 
 <li><strong>Hope from Institutions:</strong> Despite the risks, Bosak suggests that institutional investors might step in to rescue struggling miners, leading to industry consolidation.</li>

<p>Looking back at historical data, Rekt Capital sees similarities with the 2020 halving cycles, where Bitcoin’s price stabilized around $14,000 before surging to $69,000 in 2021.</p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-predicting-the-future">Predicting the Future</h2> 
<p>As of now, Bitcoin is priced at <a href="https://markets.coinpedia.org/bitcoin/">$70,838</a>, showing a slight decrease over the past 24 hours, while its market cap remains at $1.39 trillion.</p>
