#BTCHashratePeak What does the current peak of Bitcoin's hashrate mean and what does it threaten the market with.
1. What is happening with the hashrate
Hashrate is the total computing power of all miners in the network.
Right now, we are seeing a new record — ~952.5 EH/s (exahashes per second).
The increase in hashrate indicates that miners are actively bringing new power online or upgrading their equipment.
2. How does this affect mining difficulty
The Bitcoin protocol automatically adjusts the difficulty every 2016 blocks (~every 2 weeks).
If the hashrate increases → difficulty increases.
