2. Hashrate is still high despite a perceived dip
Earlier this week, there was quite a bit of turmoil in the market is due to the presence of a sharp dip in the computing power of the network.
The dip, however, appeared to explain a series of blocks for which the acknowledgment is slower than the average for the ten minutes. This can be a short-term, although the sharp dip in the power.
However, the hashrate recovered quickly, and at the time of writing, the hashrate back in 92 terahash per second.
That make the bitcoin network is, undoubtedly, the most secure, decentralized network of computers on the face of the earth.

In his eyes, bitcoin is also much needed as in the past, the central bank of the united states and Europe, have money to continue printing at the rate of inflation and maintain its economic engine, not letting it falter.
