The bitcoin price fell close to 50% from its early-October high near $125,000 to a February low around $60,000. That decline placed bitcoin below its estimated average production cost for the first time since late 2022, a zone that has often aligned with late-stage selling and price stabilization. Current estimates put average production near $66,000, meaning…
