Ki Young Ju, CEO of CryptoQuant, tweeted that Some mining pool participants from Poolin just sent 5k $BTC (~$110M) to Binance. This might indicate some miners' revenue can't meet the break-even point, so they have to cash out to cover expenses/loans. Please note that Poolin, the company itself, is not the seller. One of the Poolin mining pool participants is the seller.

Ki Young Ju then added that I didn't say this is bearish tho. What's obvious is miner sent 5k BTC to Binance. That's it. We never know the purpose of this transaction. It could be used to open long positions using BTC as collateral.Small miners' capitulation is one of the theories with high probability.

According to a new analysis by blockchain analytics firm Glassnode, there has been a capitulation of bitcoin miners. The pressure on miners' incomes has been caused by falling revenues and rising production costs. Miner behavior has confirmed that the capitulation phase is underway. The first evidence of this is the arithmetic ribbon, which is now inverted as arithmetic has dropped 10% from its all-time high, signaling that ASIC miners are coming offline.

As miners face this massive financial pressure, their bitcoin balance outflows are reaching 5,000 to 8,000 coins per month. This is now on par with the bear capitulation events of 2018-2019.

Notably, after Bitcoin failed to hold the low range of its ongoing consolidation ($28,000), miners stopped selling and actually increased their balances at a rate of 2,200 Bitcoins per month.

Public-listed miners -- which account for about 20% of the total -- have already reported Bitcoin sales in May and June to increase liquidity, meet costs and possibly deleverage, JPMorgan strategists led by Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou wrote in a note Friday. Offloading of Bitcoins by miners could continue into Q3 if their profitability fails to improve.

The cost of production for a large mining company is around $8,000 per token, assuming average electricity prices and fairly new mining machines, according to Arcane Crypto.

With pressures such as soaring global power costs and an overall low crypto market currently hitting crypto miners' profitability, miners are trying to boost profits by cutting costs and selling some of their bitcoins. In addition, bitcoin miners are also facing significant pressure from creditors and other counterparties, and those who obtain funds through highly leveraged borrowing could even trigger a larger chain reaction leading to the bankruptcy of cryptocurrency lending service providers and hedge fund companies.
