Following China’s bitcoin mining crackdowns, Poolin has suspended rewards for its tokenized hashrate contracts.

The wBTC and wETH rewards are on pause until “less than 60 days”, as per a blog post from Poolin.

Poolin Pauses Rewards For pBTC35A And pETH18C

Poolin’s tokenized hashrate contracts, pBTC35A and pETH18C, have all their wBTC and wETH rewards suspended until less than 60 days.

The reason behind the move is China’s ongoing crackdown on mining farms, which has forced miners around the country to migrate elsewhere.

The 60-days timeframe correlates to the migration time needed to move mining farms out of China.

As a consequence of the rewards payout suspension, holders are pulling out of the contracts in hordes.

Here is how the pETH token price and volume chart looks like right now:

The chart shows that pETH price has rapidly corrected following the announcement.

Similarly for pBTC, the below chart highlights the trend in its price and volume:

Two other notable takeaways from the graphs are that pETH hit a single-day $2 million turnover in volume for the first time ever, but pBTC only hit a monthly high.

The other high turnovers in pBTC volume were in the months of April and May. The first one corresponds to the coal mine flooding incident in Xinjiang that cut power supply to Bitcoin miners, while the second one was caused by the 21% difficulty adjustment.

The Poolin team plans to pack and transport their mining rigs to another location within 60 days, after which rewards are expected to resume normally.

It should be noted that while wBTC and wETH rewards are paused, Poolin is still offering rewards in the Mars token.

Mars is the platform’s native governance token, holders of which can usually vote on decisions relating to the platform.

However, for the decision of cutting out wBTC and wETH rewards, no Mars holder was able to vote. Poolin went forth with the initiative by themselves.

Bitcoin Price

Right now, Bitcoin is priced around $34k, up 2% in the past week, but down 7% in the last 30 days.

China’s latest mining crackdowns are also responsible for BTC’s latest crash. As BTC miners were also forced to shutdown their farms, and migrate elsewhere.

Here is a chart showing the trend in its price:

It’s hard to say where the price will be heading next. There is a possibility BTC is entering a bear market as a never-before wrong signal has been triggered.

Keshav is currently a senior writer at NewsBTC and has been attached to the website since June 14, 2021.

Keshav has been writing for many years, first as a hobbyist and later as a freelancer. He has experience working in a variety of niches, even fiction at one point, but the cryptocurrency industry has been the longest he has been attached to.

In terms of official educational qualifications, Keshav holds a bachelor’s degree in Physics from one of the premier institutes of India, the University of Delhi (DU). He started the degree with an aim of eventually making a career in Physics, but the onset of COVID led to a shift in plans. The virus meant that the college classes had to be delivered in the online-mode and with it came free time for him to explore other passions.

Initially only seeking to make some beer money, Keshav unexpectedly landed clients offering real projects, after which there was no looking back. Writing was something he had always enjoyed and to be able to do it for a living was like a dream come true.

Keshav completed his Physics degree in 2022 and has been focusing on his writing career since, but that doesn’t mean his passion for Physics has ended. He eventually plans to re-enter university to obtain a masters degree in the same field, but perhaps only to satiate his own interest rather than for using it as a means to find employment..

Keshav has found blockchain and its concepts fascinating ever since he started going down the rabbit-hole back in 2020. On-chain analysis in particular has been something he likes to research more about, which is why his NewsBTC pieces tend to involve it in some form.

Being of the science background, Keshav likes if concepts are clear and consistent, so he generally explains the indicators he talks about in a bit of detail so that the readers can perhaps come out having understood and learnt something new.

As for hobbies, Keshav is super into football, anime, and videogames. He enjoys football not only as a watcher, but also as a player. For games, Keshav generally tends towards enjoying singleplayer adventures, with EA FC (formerly FIFA) being the only online game he is active in. Though, perhaps due to being ultra-focused on the game, he is today a semi-pro on the EA FC scene, regularly participating in tournaments and sometimes even taking back prize money.

Because of his enthusiasm for anime and games, he also self-learned Japanese along the way to consume some of the untranslated gems out there. The skill didn’t merely remain as just a hobby, either, as he put it to productive use during his exploration for small-time gigs at the start of COVID, fulfilling a couple of Japanese-to-English translation jobs.

Keshav is also big into fitness, with agility and acceleration-related workouts making a big part of his program due to the relevance they have in football. On top of that, he also has a more traditional strength based program for the gym, which he does to maintain an overall fitness level of his body.
