According to the data, Argo Blockchain is the worst hit, as its stocks have declined by 97.1% on the year-to-date metrics. In addition, a Dec. 10 CryptoSlate report revealed that the BTC mining firm might have accidentally revealed its plans to file for bankruptcy.

CryptoSlate research has also revealed that miners face difficulty because of BTC’s low price. As a result, they have been aggressively selling their BTCs, and their holdings have plunged to a year-low.

A separate report showed that miners like Hut8, Riot, and Marathon increased their BTC holdings in November while Argo, Bit Digital, Bitfarms, and Cleanspark’s BTC reserves shrank.

BTC is up 9% in the past 30 days
