  • Bitcoin mining firms turn to financial tools like hashrate derivatives to stabilize income and support operational growth.

The article from CryptoNews discusses how Bitcoin mining firms are increasingly turning to hashrate derivatives as a strategy to manage risk and capitalize on the rising value of Bitcoin.
