Bitcoin miners are seeing a sharp decline in their stock prices as a code update for the largest cryptocurrency that will drastically reduce revenue is set to happen later this week.

Shares of Marathon Digital Holdings Inc., Riot Platforms Inc. and CleanSpark Inc. all fell for at least a third consecutive day on Tuesday. The Valkyrie Bitcoin Miners exchange-traded fund has tumbled by around 28% this month.
