An obstacle to large-scale bitcoin mining is finding enough cheap energy to run the huge, power-gobbling computer arrays that create and transact cryptocurrency. One mining operation in central New York came up with a novel solution that has alarmed environmentalists.
Using data from a prominent blockchain research firm, Coinmetrics.io, we explore the relationship between prices, computing power (measured by the hashrate), and network (measured by the number of unique active users). We focus on five major mineable cryptocurrencies (i.e. Bitcoin, Ethereum, Monero, Litecoin, and Dash). In some of our test, we expand our data to include an additional 33 cryptocurrencies. Our sample period spans from 7 August 2015 to 25 January 2019.

It can be observed that in the short term (2–4 and 4–8 day period band) there is no consistency in results; in some cases the null hypothesis can be rejected and in some cases it cannot. In the medium term there is more consistency in rejection of the null hypothesis in favour of bubble regime coherence values significantly exceeding the non-bubble regime values. In the long term, the proportion of instances exhibiting statistical significance reduces, with the majority of cases in the 256–512 band not being a rejection of the null hypothesis. This reduction of statistically significant differences when considering longer term periods further emphasises the point that it is the medium term in which coherences tend to strengthen during bubble regimes.

Bitcoin is down roughly 20% week-over-week, around 30% from its all-time high of nearly $65,000 early last week. The market cap of the coin has dipped below $1 trillion.

This is the latest in a string of recent high-profile trading problems in crypto. Synthetify, a new decentralized exchange, was forced to shut down for a while earlier this month shortly after its debut because of bad data provided by the Pyth Network, a price feed backed by some of the world's most well-known trading and exchange firms. Pyth malfunctioned another time in September, erroneously making it appear that Bitcoin had crashed 90%.
