The hashrate of the Bitcoin network at the moment fell by more than 38.8%, from 230 EH/s to 155 EH/s. It happened due to a snowstorm in the US, which cut off power lines and stopped the work of the miners.
Riot Blockchain, Core Scientific, Compass Mining and other major mining companies have stopped their miners.

📉 According to the Hashrate Index, since May 2022, the prices of the most efficient ASIC miners (Antminer S19 and Whatsminer M30s) have fallen by 87%.
The drop in prices is largely due to the collapse of a number of major mining companies, many of which have filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy or sold their assets and equipment to stay afloat.

🔎 Global interest for the most populat cryptos continued to decline over the past year.
📊 Bitcoin has dropped from 100 (the peak of popularity in December 2017) to 17 points this month.
👆However, don't forget the golden rule: the more people are disappointed in cryptocurrencies, the more chances there are for an uptrend.
