Ki Young Ju, CEO of CryptoQuant, issued an article yesterday (7th) pointing out that according to the 2024 Q2 quarterly report of American mining company Marathon Digital, the current mining cost of each BTC is around US$43,000. He said that if the price of Bitcoin falls below this level, miners may further liquidate Bitcoin under operational pressure. But if Bitcoin can hold around the $45,000 level, BTC is still expected to hit a new all-time high within 1 year: In my opinion, as long as the price of Bitcoin remains above $45,000, it is possible within a year Breaking through the all-time high again.
