Bitcoin below $80K: not panic, but the reality of the miner economy

While Bloomberg predicts a drop to $50K, most overlook the main point — the true price of Bitcoin is determined not by the media, but by the cost of its mining.

Cold Mathematics

Let's take the Antminer S19 ( still ~30% of the network hash rate ). CryptoNews data shows:

• Break-even point at $0.06/kWh: $97K
• Lower survival edge ( electricity $0.08/kWh ): $80K

What will happen next? Simple economy:

✗ BTC < $80K → miners with expensive electricity are already at a loss ✗ BTC < $60K → mass shutdown of equipment ( like in 2018-2020) ✗ Wave of sales of accumulated stocks → even more pressure on the price

Why it matters

This is not a conspiracy, it's the mathematics of market selection. Weak miners (high energy costs) are forced to either sell or shut down. Meanwhile:

• Strong players (cheap electricity) are becoming even stronger
• Large capital knows: BTC cannot stay below cost for long.
• Minimums = the best point for asset accumulation

What to Watch Instead of News

Forget about panic headlines. Real signals:

1. Mining Difficulty Chart — shows when stress occurs
2. The cost of electricity — this is a real foundation
3. Capitulation vs accumulation — the beam shows where everyone is going

Just remember: the bear narrative is a tool, not the truth. Sometimes it aligns with reality, sometimes it doesn't. But the mining economy never lies.
