As a keen observer of the
cryptocurrency landscape, I'm curious to know the extent of China's dominance in bitcoin mining in 2021. Given the country's vast resources and technological prowess, I suspect it holds a significant share of the global bitcoin mining hash rate. However, the recent regulatory clampdown on crypto activities in China may have had an impact. Could you elaborate on the current situation? Specifically, how much of the total bitcoin mining hash rate is attributed to China, and how has this figure changed over the past year? Are there any indications that this trend may continue, or could we see a shift in the balance of power in the near future?
