Extreme miner outflows have not returned since Bitcoin touched $76,000 on Aug. 21, while miner compensation improved from extremely underpaid to fairly paid.
Bitcoin miner selling has eased since Bitcoin (BTC) touched a low of $76,000 on Aug. 21, potentially easing one source of persistent market supply pressure.
Miners have recently stopped large-scale selling, while miner compensation shifted from “extremely underpaid” to “fairly paid.” Extreme miner outflows have not returned since that change.
Miner selling was an important supply source affecting Bitcoin’s price during the 2026 bear market. The latest shift follows earlier signs that miner profitability had improved after severe financial pressure.
The disappearance of steady miner selling may help ease market supply pressure.
