I really wouldn't call this a dramatic drop in hash rate. Remember when China "banned mining"? That was a drop in hash rate, until it quickly climbed back up.

Yes agree. I tried to explain it briefly. That china ban drop was not related to the halving. In the halving we didn't see a drop like we are seeing this time. This could mean that mining cannot keep up without Bitcoin price to go higher, which is what I expect to happen. Still, the network is healthy and secure. No worries there.

Yes. I wasn't focused on past halving hash rates.
