Bitcoin

<h2 id="quick-take">Quick Take</h2>
<p>Bitcoin’s mining difficulty, an important metric for the health of the network, has seen another positive adjustment, 62.46T, marking the fourth consecutive rise. This time, the increase is slightly over 2%, a subtle yet important change that signifies the continued growth and resilience of the network.</p>

<p>As a consequence of this adjustment, the hash rate—representing the processing power of the Bitcoin network—has experienced a surge. Currently, it hovers just under 450 exahashes per second (eh/s), based on a 7-day moving average. The hash rate is a key indicator of miner participation and overall network security.</p>
<p>CryptoSlate previously addressed the impact of <a href="https://cryptoslate.com/insights/advancing-mining-efficiency-in-light-of-bitcoins-diminishing-returns/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">such hash rate surges</a>, particularly in the context of halving events. Halving, a pre-programmed reduction in the reward miners receive for adding a new block to the blockchain, has potential implications on the hash rate — not only affecting the miners but also shapes the broader landscape of Bitcoin’s market dynamics.</p>
