🗞️ Bitcoin Difficulty Bounces Back! Mining Profitability on the Rise!
After a recent 5.62% decrease in Bitcoin's mining difficulty, there's finally some good news for miners! At block 844,704 on May 23, 2024, the difficulty surged by 1.48%, reaching an impressive 84.38 trillion.
The dip in difficulty earlier this month was accompanied by a drop in the hashprice, falling below $45 per petahash. But fear not, as BTC's value has been climbing, so has the hashprice, now standing at around $54.85.
With Bitcoin's price soaring over $9,000 since the hashrate hit a low of 582 EH/s, miners are back in business! The overall hashrate has rebounded to over 600 EH/s, indicating a positive trend for the mining ecosystem.
This bounce-back in difficulty and hashrate suggests a recovering network, with mining profitability showing signs of improvement. So, miners, keep those rigs running and your eyes on the prize – the future of Bitcoin mining is looking brighter than ever!
