Ravencoin (RVN) experienced notable price movements tied to mining developments. In early 2024, Binance Pool added support for RVN mining, prompting a price surge of over 10% to 20% and a reported five‑fold increase in network computing power as miners shifted from Ethereum after its transition to proof‑of‑stake. However, in August 2026 the network faced a critical consensus vulnerability that allowed invalid blocks to be added, leading two dominant mining pools (2Miners and RavenMiner) to rebuild the chain from before the exploit. This potential reorganization put recent transactions at risk, caused exchanges to suspend deposits and withdrawals, and drove RVN’s price down sharply, falling about 17% in one day and remaining down 77% over the past year.
