The United Arab Emirates has positioned itself as the new up-and-coming Bitcoin mining hub, currently contributing to nearly 4% of the global Bitcoin hash rate. During a Twitter Space, Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao said the next Bitcoin (BTC) bull run could come as soon as 2025. Meanwhile, the U.S. government has begun to dispense funds retrieved from the massive 2016 Bitfinex hack.

The United States Department of Homeland Security has distributed $312,219.71 in cash and 6.917 in Bitcoin Cash (BCH) to Bitfinex — representing a tiny portion of the funds siphoned in the 2016 cryptocurrency exchange hack. “This is part of Bitfinex’s ongoing efforts, working with law enforcement and other investigation agencies, to recover assets stolen from the exchange in August 2016,” Bitfinex said.

The August 2016 hack resulted in the loss of 119,576 Bitcoin, worth roughly $70 million at the time and a whopping $3.7 billion in today’s dollars. In February 2022, the U.S. Department of Justice arrested Ilya Lichtenstein and his wife, Heather Morgan, for allegedly conspiring to launder the stolen funds.

Emiratele Arabe Unite apar ca o destinație de minerit pro-Bitcoin în Orientul Mijlociu

The UAE has established itself as a pro-Web3 destination for crypto-focused companies, with over 30 free trade zones and a growing contribution to the Bitcoin mining hash rate.

Data from Hashrate Index shows that the UAE’s combined Bitcoin mining capacity is likely around 400 megawatts — or 4% of Bitcoin’s global hash rate. Moreover, the UAE has shifted its focus toward solar and nuclear energy as it reduces its reliance on natural gas.

CEO-ul Binance oferă sfaturi pentru următoarea cursă Bitcoin

Binance CEO Changpeng “CZ” Zhao has tipped 2025 as the most likely year to kick off the next Bitcoin bull run. 

During a July 5 “ask me anything” session on Twitter, CZ explained how the price of Bitcoin has historically moved in four-year bull cycles.

În timp ce a recunoscut că nu poate vedea viitorul, Zhao a subliniat viitorul eveniment de înjumătățire a Bitcoin în 2024 și a declarat că 2025 este cel mai probabil an pentru următoarea piață bull.

Binance CZ spune „Anul după înjumătățirea Bitcoin este de obicei anul taur”.

Comentariile lui CZ vin după ce Coin Metrics a descoperit că minerii Bitcoin au putut să facă 184 de milioane de dolari în taxe miniere în al doilea trimestru din 2023.

These fees were a 270% increase from the first quarter and more than the previous five quarters combined, according to the firm.

The crypto analytics firm said the jump in fees was due to Bitcoin’s recent price surge, which bolstered top-line revenues, and the advent of BRC-20, a noul standard de token pe Bitcoin introduced in March that uses Ordinals inscriptions to mint and transfer fungible tokens on the network.
