Here's something worth examining: Bitcoin's price has never held below its electrical production cost over any meaningful period. This isn't coincidence—it's economics at work. When mining becomes unprofitable, hash rate drops, difficulty adjusts downward, and the network self-corrects. The cost of electricity essentially acts as a hard floor under BTC valuation. Miners' break-even threshold becomes the market's natural support level.

Is electricity cost really that hardcore? I remember during the 2019 bear market, some miners held on until bankruptcy...

Electricity cost is really the bottom line for Bitcoin; this logic is quite solid.

Damn, this logic sounds solid... Is the electricity cost really the floor price of BTC?

Is the mining cost the bottom price? Then why did it drop so badly last year?

Is electricity cost the support level? This logic somehow feels a bit off to me.

Mining costs are the bottom line; this logic makes perfect sense.

This logic sounds great at first, but can electricity costs really be considered a hard bottom line? Given the huge global differences in miner cost structures, how is it calculated?
