Its unique features support many applications that previous payment systems could not provide, including fast peer-to-peer transactions, global payments, and low processing fees.

1️⃣ Miner Capitulation Cycle Nearing Completion Signals Bottom
The Bitcoin mining industry has experienced its longest recent capitulation cycle, during which many miners shut down or transfer their hashing power.
