Bitcoin's seven-day average hash rate recently dropped to its lowest level since September, breaking the 1 ZH/s threshold. Based on current trends, the difficulty adjustment is expected to decrease by 4.34% within 3 days. This wave of correction directly reflects the weak signals in the mining market. Hashprice has fallen from $55 to $35, significantly compressing miners' unit profit margins and sharply increasing operating cost pressures. Faced with this situation, many mining farms have begun to adjust their strategies, gradually shifting hash rate resources toward AI computing fields to seek new profit growth points. The market is rebalancing.

Miners are starting to switch to AI, now Bitcoin mining really has to give way to other positions --- Hashprice has been halved, who still dares to hold on... --- Difficulty adjustment can't save the situation; turning to AI might be the only way out --- Lowest since September, this pace is a bit painful --- Mining profits are exploding, hash power is shifting to AI, the market is getting a bit chaotic

Miners are forced to sell their planes, now they really have to turn to AI.

Miners really can't hold on anymore, they've all switched to AI trading --- Hashprice halved, how are we going to survive this --- Another wave of mining is about to cool down, whoever makes money by switching to AI is the real boss --- Difficulty adjustment can't save the market, the real reshuffle has begun --- Fell from 55 to 35, this speed is a bit desperate --- So, those who insist on mining should have turned around long ago --- Mining farms are starting to flee, isn't this a market signal? --- Hash rate plummeted so quickly, do we have to wait until bankruptcy to act

Miners should shift to AI; Bitcoin mining is becoming increasingly difficult --- Hashprice has been cut in half directly; these days are unmanageable --- They should have transitioned long ago; those who stubbornly stick to Bitcoin are gambling --- Difficulty adjustment can't save it; the pattern is already set --- AI computing is the future; forward-thinking mining farms are already taking action --- Still mining despite such a drop, truly brave --- Breaking 1ZH/s now; this pace feels off --- Shifting to AI is inevitable; waiting to do so means death --- It seems a bear market is coming, and a large migration of miners has begun --- Hashprice has fallen so badly, no wonder everyone is rushing to AI

Mining this wave is really quite tough, with hashprice dropping like this, what's the point of continuing? The AI computing power boom has indeed arrived, but is it easy to switch? Another round of reshuffling, let's wait and see who can survive until the end. Difficulty adjustment can't save it either; if the coin price stays stagnant, everything is pointless. I can't see how miners switching to AI can earn much; it feels like a forced choice. After this wave, a bunch of mining farms will have to shut down; it's market survival of the fittest.
