A New York town that previously imposed an 18-month ban on Bitcoin mining is now considering extending that moratorium to cover data centers and other crypto mining operations, reviving local regulatory friction for the industry.
The move lands at a sensitive moment for Bitcoin price action, with the asset testing critical support near $78,300 amid broader risk-off flows in equities and commodities markets.
While localized bans have limited direct market impact, they add to a patchwork of US regulatory uncertainty that traders continue to weigh alongside technical levels and macro sentiment shifts.
