Yeah, but Trump would commend them on their brilliance. https://www.cnn.com/2016/06/22/politics/donald-trump-defends-bankruptcy-history
People who invest in HIVE, etc. deserve their burnings. I never could understand why people would shove hand-over-fist into over-inflated stocks/businesses that were a dead-end tech. It's no secret that all new cryptos go str8 to PoS, and ETH was going to modernize into the same. You can't even do discount cash-flow modeling on these miners because the obsoleting industry is depreciating so quickly and time left is so short. Not to mention, the competition is still high with multiple miners competing for even fewer assets and returns, and the industry has to continually destroy its recently acquired hard-ware and issue new debt instruments just to grab the latest and greatest ASICS all over again a few months later. It's a horrible business model, and good riddance to it.
"The mining done from natural powered sources will continue to mine no matter what the market does".....your a damned idiot.
dont charge your cars - but fire up those mining rigs from that solar panel right there baby....LOL The dumbest shit pours out of this guy.
How so? Instead of calling someone names why not say something smart to back it up. We're listening. You have our undivided attention now. Explain to me and everyone how mining from natural resources will shut down if the market dips. We're listening, now is your chance to back up your statement and prove how smart you are
It was expected, from the beginning it was clear that the number of coins that can be mined is limited.
One by one.... the crypto miners are all going under. Core Scientific files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, mining operations will continue https://ambcrypto.com/core-scientif...1-bankruptcy-mining-operations-will-continue/ Bitcoin mining giant Core Scientific Inc. has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas. The mining firm’s liabilities are estimated to be between $1 billion and $10 billion. The bankruptcy filing revealed that it has between 1000 to 5000 creditors. Falling crypto prices and rising energy costs Core Scientific is one of the largest players in the mining space. Although several popular names like Compute North have sought protection under Chapter 11, Core Scientific’s bankruptcy filing makes it the first publicly listed mining firm to do so. The company’s decision comes after a bearish year that saw crypto prices slump amid rising energy prices. This year has also seen Bitcoin’s mining difficulty at record highs. Core Scientific’s operations primarily involve mining Bitcoin and hosting data centers across the country. Positive cash flow not enough to sustain operations According to a report by CNBC, Core Scientific is generating positive cash flow. However, this income is not enough to service the financing debt that the mining firm took out to lease mining equipment. “The company will not liquidate but will continue to operate normally while reaching a deal with senior security noteholders, which hold the bulk of the company’s debt,” the source told CNBC. Core Scientific made a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission in late October. The filing revealed that the Texas-based mining firm may run out of cash before the end of this year, prompting it to resort to bankruptcy protection. The firm also stated that it would stop making debt payments to its creditors due to its financial predicament. Share price down 98% YTD Apart from the slumping crypto prices and rising energy costs, non-repayment from bankrupt crypto lender Celsius also affected Core Scientific’s finances. Data from MarketWatch shows that the mining firm’s share price has tanked 98% since the beginning of 2022. The stock is currently trading at $0.148, down from its all-time high of $14.32. Its market capitalization went from its 2022 high of $3.42 billion to $75 million as of press time.
