Bitcoin Mining Difficulty Reaches Record High Amid Hash Rate Increase
Bitcoin mining difficulty has reached an all-time high of 92.67 trillion, as reported by Benzinga. This surge in difficulty is a direct consequence of an increase in the network’s hash rate, which measures the computational power dedicated to mining new blocks on the Bitcoin blockchain. The rise in hash rate indicates more miners are joining the network or upgrading their equipment, making it more challenging to mine new Bitcoin. This development underscores the growing competition and investment in the Bitcoin mining sector.
