Bitcoin’s hashrate peaked at its lifetime on April 5, with an EH/s gain of around 21 increased to 883 Excellash (EH/s) per second compared to previous records on March 28th.
Bitcoin Miner pushes limits as the difficulty level reaches 121.51 trillion hashrate peak
At the time of pressing, the computing capacity of the Bitcoin network is gliding to 876.24 EH/s, just below its recent peak. The hashrate for this record setting will arrive as mining difficulty increases by 6.81% and raises the bar for miners looking to validate new blocks. Current Spot Hash Pris – Expected Daily Return of 1 Peta Hash per Second (PH/s) per Second for SHA256 Hash Power – Stand at $46.16 per PH/s. Hashpris has fallen 11.15% since March 5th.
At this pace, the network will have to add just 117 EH/s and pass the 1 Zetahash per second threshold (Zh/s), a milestone likely to reach 2025. The calculation for this record setting matches the lull of transaction activity, as most recent blocks are rarely filled. Of all blocks mined in the last 24 hours, less than 1% of total revenue collected (particularly 0.89%) spawned eggs from on-chain fees.
At the moment, Foundry is leading the way as the top Bitcoin mining pool, contributing to 32.33% of the global hashrate, followed by Antpool at 17.22%. VIABTC holds 15.02% and F2 pool accounts for 8.97%. Together, these four pools command to the combined 73.54% of the network hashrate. The 6.81% increase in difficulties could ease the pace of hashrate as the metric stands at an all-time high of 121.51 trillion after mining block height of 891,072.
