The spike in network fees was driven by speculative activity to mint new meme tokens following the launch of the Runes protocol, the report said.
The Bitcoin Halving is set to take place this week. Miners’ rewards will be cut in half from 6. 25 BTC to 3. 125. This event is expected to have far-reaching effects on the miners themselves, as they are bound to lose a significant amount of revenue once the halving occurs.
The broker cut its price target to $14 from $17.50 while maintaining its buy rating.
As the facilitators of the network’s security and transaction verification process, Bitcoin miners significantly influence the supply of BTC in the market. This is why no market analysis can be complete without analyzing the changes in miners’ balances and activity.
As the protocol evolves, new layers could emerge bringing new use cases and more users, the report said.
The number of bitcoin held in wallets tied to miners has dropped to the lowest since mid-2021.
