Analysis

Bitcoin hash rate has declined for 250 consecutive days, triple the prior record of 91 days set in the 2022 bear market and far exceeding the 63-day stretch in 2018.

Every major public miner has shifted capacity toward AI data centers, draining network security at a scale unseen in the last 12 months.

On the 4h chart, BTC trades at $64722.16 inside the Bollinger Bands with price testing upper resistance at $65043.74 while the MACD golden cross at 283.83 and EMA50 support at $63901.36 keep the structure bullish; a measured pullback toward that EMA50 level remains the high-probability next move before continuation.
