Bitcoin Outperforms Major Commodities Over Last 90 Days: Glassnode

Glassnode revealed that Bitcoin has emerged as the strongest performing asset as compared to other major commodities.

According to data from Glassnode, a prominent market intelligence firm, recent trends in the financial markets show mixed performance across various assets. Over the last 90 days, crude oil (WTI) has experienced a decline of 4.0%. In contrast, gold (XAU) and silver (XAG) have shown positive momentum, with gains of 7.5% and 12.7%, respectively, during the same period.

Interestingly, Glassnode stated that Bitcoin (BTC) has continued to outperform other assets, remaining 14.5% above its February closing price. However, it is worth noting that BTC’s performance has been relatively weaker compared to its peak in the first quarter, where it achieved a remarkable 72% growth.

Cryptocurrencies continue outperforming commodities in 2023

Additionally, the data suggests that cryptocurrencies will continue to outperform commodities in 2023. Glassnode data states that all crypto assets, including Bitcoin, are undergoing a significant correction after their recovery from the bear market of 2022. However, according to Glassnode, Bitcoin investors are currently experiencing a state of equilibrium, with neither bullish nor bearish sentiment dominating the market.

However, Glassnode data stated that the recent period has been characterized by low volatility and narrow trading ranges, indicating that this equilibrium may soon be disrupted. As a response to this anticipated change, there has been a slight increase in spending by long-term holders of Bitcoin.

The cryptocurrency market has been going through a rollercoaster ride recently. Bitcoin, which touched $28,044 in the last 24 hours, has fallen to a low of $27,019. According to CoinMarketCap data, BTC is trading at $27,912, with a 2.2% drop in value over the last 24 hours. The global crypto market cap is down by 1.73% in the last 24 hours and stands at $1.14 trillion at press time.

The Bitcoin mining company kicked off the second phase of its mining campus in Georgia, gearing up for the next Bitcoin halving. Bitcoin miner CleanSpark has begun the second phase of operations at its mining campus in Washington, a city in the U.S. state of Georgia, reaching 8.0 exahashes per second (EH/s), halfway to its year-end target of 16 EH/s.  The second phase saw an investment of nearly $55 million in the site, including construction, infrastructure and machines. The facility , bought in August 2022 for $25.1 million, had 15,000 mining machines with a power capacity of 50 megawatts (MW). According to the company, the capital deployed expands its total power capacity to 86 MW. “Today, it’s 50 megawatts of new power added on to the 36 megawatts we previously had constructed there. So, there’s 86 megawatts, or 12 times the load provided by the city," said Matthew Schultz, CleanSpark’s executive chairman, during an investors' conference on July 13. According to Schu...

Tether bitcoin mine branded 'fake' after X users spot edited logos

Image
A recent tweet from Tether CTO Paolo Ardoino in which he claims work on one of the company’s new sustainable bitcoin mining projects is “coming along well” has given rise to a curious new conspiracy theory. The tweet featured what at first glance looked to be an innocuous image of a number of shipping containers that had apparently been converted hold crypto miners. However, it didn’t take eagle-eyed viewers long to spot that something wasn’t quite right — namely that the Tether logos on the side of the containers looked Photoshopped. This led to speculation that not only were the logos fake, but the site itself was a fabrication . One of #Tether energy production and #Bitcoin mining sites coming along well. pic.twitter.com/6Z8o6A5OaE — Paolo Ardoino (@paoloardoino) August 24, 2023 “Is this a real Mining site owned by Tether ?
