Argo Blockchain Share Price Plunges Ahead of Bitcoin Halving Event: What to Expect
Argo Blockchain, a leading Bitcoin mining company, has been facing a tough time as its share price continues to plummet ahead of the highly anticipated Bitcoin halving event this week. The ARB stock price collapsed to 11p in London and $1.30 in New York, marking its lowest point since March.
The Bitcoin halving event, which is set to reduce the number of Bitcoin rewards offered to miners, will have significant implications for mining companies like Argo Blockchain. With the mining difficulty reaching record highs, companies will produce fewer Bitcoins, leading to potential struggles for those with weaker balance sheets.
Argo Blockchain, in particular, has been facing challenges with its Bitcoin mining production, having mined only 103 Bitcoins in March and holding just 26 Bitcoins in its balance sheet. The company’s decision to sell its Mirabel facility and relocate its mining machines may have contributed to the decline in production.
Technical analysis of Argo Blockchain’s stock price shows a bearish trend, with the stock forming a death cross pattern and remaining below key moving averages. The stock has also broken below important Fibonacci retracement levels, indicating further downside potential.
As the Bitcoin halving event approaches, it remains to be seen how Argo Blockchain and other mining companies will navigate the changing landscape. Investors will be closely watching to see how these companies adapt to the new environment and whether they can weather the storm ahead.
