Bitcoin mining pool once handling 2.3% of network shuts after hashrate falls 65%

A Bitcoin mining pool that once accounted for about 2.3% of network hashrate has shut down after its hashrate fell roughly 65%. The closure removes a small share of mining capacity and reflects pressure on the pool, not a comparable decline in Bitcoin’s overall hashrate. The immediate network impact is likely limited, though miners using the pool must redirect their equipment to other operators.
