If you\u2019ve been on Crypto Twitter, you\u2019ve likely heard the term \u201cminer capitulation\u201d time and time again in reference to Bitcoin.<\/p>\n
For those who have been living under a rock, Bitcoin’s drop which began earlier this year led the hash rate of the underlying network to flatline. This trend led the Hash Ribbons, an indicator tracking moving averages of Bitcoin\u2019s hash rate, to see a bearish crossover, resulting in an event known as \u201cminer capitulation.\u201d<\/p>\n
The previous bearish crossover in the Hash Ribbons was last seen\u00a0just before the now-infamous crash from $6,000 to $3,000 in late-2018.<\/a> As such, when this signal appeared late last month, investors feared the worse, claiming that Bitcoin was about to fall off a cliff again.<\/p>\n And so BTC did, tumbling from $8,200 at the time of the crossover as low of $6,400 just earlier this month.<\/p>\n Though, the outlook for bulls is getting better, with miner capitulation now having ended, boding well for the future of the cryptocurrency market.<\/p>\n A few days prior to Christmas, NewsBTC reported<\/a> that \u201crecovery,\u201d meaning the end of the miner capitulation phase, has just started on the one-day Bitcoin chart according to the hash Ribbons indicator.<\/p>\n While this was bullish in and of itself, the Hash Ribbons had not yet signaled a “buy,” which has long been seen as an almost-certain full-on crypto market reversal on a macro scale.<\/p>\n Though according to digital asset manager Charles Edwards<\/a>, who has popularized the Hash Ribbons and the talk around Bitcoin miner capitulation over recent months, a “buy” is rapidly forming on the Hash Ribbons indicator just a few days after “recovery” was signaled.<\/p>\n A Buy signal is forming on the Hash Ribbons indicator.<\/p>\n \ud83d\udd2d pic.twitter.com\/DBLkec46S4<\/a><\/p>\n — Charles Edwards (@caprioleio) December 27, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\nBitcoin Hash Ribbons Signal Buy In Massive Boost to Bulls<\/h2>\n
