Bitcoin started the week relatively stable with the BTC/USD pair trading sideways in between $9,200 and $9,300.

Overall, the broader crypto market is exhibiting a sense of quasi-stability with the majority of the top-20 altcoins recording humble gains. The only exceptions are Cardano (ADA), Chainlink (LINK), Tezos (XTZ), and VeChain (VET), all scoring double-digit or near double-digit returns.

The sudden rebound in hashing power is likely a result of optimism over higher future prices and the arrival of new mining hardware from giants Bitmain and MicroBT in recent months.
