Wu Says learned that CoinRabbit and GoMining released a report stating that after block rewards fell to 3.125 BTC and the network-wide difficulty neared the historical high, mining firms can no longer sustain competitiveness relying only on low electricity prices and equipment efficiency—capital management is becoming the key factor determining profitability. The report suggests that miners reduce forced BTC sales and instead use collateralized financing to cover electricity bills, custody fees, and payroll, while maintaining long-term exposure and expanding hashrate at low cost during bear markets.

The situation where mining companies are forced to sell their coins really needs to change; at least with collateralized loans, they can keep their chips and wait for a bull market.

With the difficulty this high, just digging and not managing finances really isn’t enough. The recommendations in this report are basically pointing mine operators to a way forward.

A bear-market low-price way to expand computing power sounds ideal, but the real-world operational risks aren’t small—what if things go wrong and your collateral gets wiped out?

This report is very straightforward: mining companies can’t rely on saving electricity costs alone anymore—fund management is the real key.

Actually, the idea of using collateral-backed financing as a substitute for liquidation is quite smart: it preserves long-term returns while also addressing the short-term cash flow problem.
