Well, maybe we've just seen everything in reverse during this cycle so far: a bearish market led to more miners closing up shop early on, and the bull run only came later. As for ASICs? They're still out there but with new electricity spikes coming from Natural Gas Plants Like Pennsylvania [1],the best chances some of them will stop functioning like a certain retired gold-coated Republican hotel mogul stuck in politics . Also, i hope that anonymous person taking the stairs took spicy pepper and nachos instead!
