Bitcoin mining revenue has dropped to levels not seen since November 2022, despite the hash rate reaching new highs. The Bitcoin network hash rate has surged 54% from the beginning of 2023 and 80% over the past year, according to Blockchain.com. However, the revenue has fallen sharply to $0.060 per terahash per second per day, around half of what it was in early May. Bitcoin miners have reportedly been relying on funds from stock sales in the second quarter to keep them afloat during the bear market.

Dan Morehead, CEO of Pantera Capital, believes that Bitcoin has reached a turning point following a long bear market. He suggests that the industry has experienced enough pain, with the collapse of Terra and crypto exchange FTX, to prepare for a bull market. Morehead notes that digital assets have decoupled from traditional markets, meaning that any future weakness in equities or bonds may not have as much impact on crypto as some analysts believe. He also anticipates that the approval of a BlackRock ETF could have a significant impact on crypto, similar to the launch of BlackRock's iShares Gold ETF in 2005.

KuCoin, a crypto exchange, has denied reports that it plans to lay off over 300 staff, stating that they are "routine performance appraisals." The bear market has led to significant layoffs in the crypto industry, particularly among exchanges, as companies seek to cut costs and maintain lean teams. Chinese reporter Colin Wu initially claimed that the layoffs at KuCoin were due to a recent decline in profits resulting from stricter KYC rules, but the exchange has since clarified that they are simply performance appraisals. Other crypto exchanges, including Binance, have also reportedly conducted significant layoffs in recent times.

The bear market has been a difficult time for those involved in the NFT space, but there have been moments of renewed interest and excitement. One such event occurred when artist Jack Butcher's act of generosity towards ThreadGuy sparked a wave of enthusiasm.

June 26 (Cointime) -Legendary investor Jim Rogers has warned that the next bear market will be the worst in his 80-year life. Rogers said the current economic situation is similar to the one on the eve of the 2008 financial crisis, but worse. This is bound to lead to a severe bear market in risky assets due to the massive amount of debt built up in the system. He also pointed out that during the inflation crisis of the 1980s, the interest rate on US government treasury bills exceeded 21%, and now financial markets are facing a similar situation. Rogers expects trouble ahead for all markets: real estate, stocks, bonds, and currencies.

June 20 (Cointime) - Crypto analyst Benjamin Cowen predicts that Cardano's bear market may continue for the rest of 2023 before hitting bottom.
