Bitcoin miners shaken by worsening profitability as bitcoin selling surges

Listed bitcoin mining firms sold more than 32,000 BTC in the first quarter of 2026, exceeding the total sold in all of 2025, Cointelegraph reported. Mining profitability has deteriorated, with hashprice falling below $35 per PH/s per day, near a break-even level for many operators. Industry reserves have declined to about 1.8 million BTC. CoinShares expects further capitulation by high-cost miners if prices do not recover.
