Hut 8 Completes U.S. Bitcoin Merger After 400% RallyKey Takeaway
i. Two crypto companies ended November 2023 by successfully merging.
ii. This deal has given rise to the newly minted Hut 8 Corp (HUT).
iii. The crypto mining firm is in an excellent position to ride the current crypto wave to new heights.
Bitcoin Rally
As the current crypto rally continues sending Bitcoin (BTC-USD) upward, two leading companies in the space have completed a successful merger. On Nov. 30, Canadian crypto mining firm Hut 8 Mining Corp (NASDAQ:HUT) announced that it had officially joined forces with US Bitcoin Corp. This move could easily create a prominent new crypto player. Today marks the first day of trading on the Nasdaq and Toronto Stock Exchange for the newly minted HUT stock. While the previous shares of Hut 8 have been delisted from both exchanges, investors who held it will receive “0.2 of a share of New Hut common stock for every Hut 8 share held.”
What should investors expect from this new crypto stock as the rally keeps digital asset prices elevated? Let’s take a closer look at this new company and assess what its future may hold.
What’s Happening With HUT Stock
Prior to the current rally, most crypto mining stocks had been struggling as they faced an uncertain future. Now many companies in the space are back in full focus and investors look for ways to profit off the current rally. The timing has been excellent for HUT stock. Shares surged on November 30 on news that the merger had been completed. While the momentum has slowly subsided today, the new stock is still up almost 350% for the month.
The timing of this business combination is important for another reason. The next Bitcoin halving event is slated for April 2024. Cointelegraph reports that after the merger, Hut 8 has “access to approximately 825 MW of gross energy across six sites with self-mining, hosting, and managed service operations.” Historically, Bitcoin halving occurs, it often boosts the crypto’s prices. Crypto miners will be bracing for it and its new power puts Hut 8 in an excellent position.
What Comes Next
How long will the current crypto rally continue? No one can say for sure. But with the next Bitcoin halving approaching quickly, HUT stock will likely benefit from the momentum generated by the event. There’s no denying that Hut 8 has always been heavily reliant on underlying crypto sentiment. But right now, sentiment toward Bitcoin and other leading cryptos is bullish. For the time being, the new HUT stock is well positioned to continue riding the wave. Crypto mining stocks are at the mercy of a volatile market but at least for now, investors can relax.
Price Momentum
HUT is trading in the middle of its 52-week range and above its 200-day simple moving average.
What does this mean?
Investors are still evaluating the share price, but the stock still appears to have some upward momentum. This is a positive sign for the stock's future value.
Hut8 Long - Merger + BTC ETF A couple of factors point to upside pressure..
These setups can always fail though.
What I'm looking at is this BTC miner has lagged behind others but has upside pressure factors currently.
US Bitcoin Corporation shareholders approved merger. Final by 11/30 hopefully.
BTC on a run to 40k with potential ETF approval 1/10
Any news of fixing current mining capacity could cause it to run.
Chart looks primed.

200-500 Setup & 4 Inside Monthly BarsAnother 200-500 moving channel daily. For this one, the monthly's have been consolidating inside for the previous four months. The move out of this range should be at least the size of the largest of the four inside bars; in this case about 1.00. Overhead is also the annual pivot. Stop out on a monthly close below the low of the last close of the four bars or, alternatively, 0.50.
Hut 8 Mining; The Bitcoin Leverage PlayTo get maximum gain in Bitcoin moves, we must turn to the Bitcoin mining companies for they yield leveraged moves to the upside or downside of Bitcoin. Hut 8 Mining is shown here with support and resistance with rejection at the 200DMA.
Ideally we want to see price find support at lower trendline or if it breaks lower we seek for a swing low on a daily timeframe for trend change. Closing above the pink resistance & 10DMA means the daily cycle has turned bullish.
Red Flag: If price goes lower than $1.21 the major trend becomes bearish, we will be looking for lower highs & lower lows for the weekly trend. Since Bitcoin miners yield higher returns in short time frames, one is best to trade these level to level consistently taking profit.
