Bitcoin hashrate has experienced a significant increase from earlier in the month, coinciding with Bitcoin’s attempt at recovery.
The recent market events, such as the regrettable CrowdStrike failure, have not affected the Bitcoin (BTC) mining hashrate. It was discovered that this hashrate experienced a significant recovery concurrent with the ongoing BTC price rebound.
Mining Difficulty and BTC Hashrate Increase
The current mining difficulty for BTC is 82.05 trillion, as the Coinwarz chart indicates. This figure was recorded at block 853,077, which led to a uniform increase in the difficulty of mining Bitcoin of 0.00% over the past 24 hours. The BTC hashrate has experienced a 3.21% increase over the past seven days. The last 30 days have decreased 1.95% to the rise, while the previous 90 days have decreased 5.02% to this metric.
The subsequent Bitcoin difficulty adjustment is anticipated at approximately 04:30:50 PM UTC on July 31, 2024. Today, the difficulty of Bitcoin mining may increase from 82.05 trillion to 88.54 trillion, a process that will occur in 1,707 blocks.
For context, the mining difficulty of BTC is a metric that indicates the difficulty level at which the next block will be mined. It quantifies the number of hashes that must be generated to identify a valid solution for the subsequent Bitcoin block and receive the mining reward.
The metric is altered consistently. To prevent the rapid generation of transactions, the difficulty of Bitcoin must be increased due to the increased hashing power. To regulate this, a difficulty re-target block is implemented to increase or decrease the difficulty level.
Bitcoin is on the point of reaching $70,000
The BTC price in the daily chart exhibited a robust V-shaped recovery from the support of $53,500 earlier today. Amid the BTC hashrate, the coin experienced a favorable reversal, which increased its value by 24.86% and caused Bitcoin to trade at $66,597. In the same vein, the market capitalization increased to $1.315 trillion at approximately the same time.
Bitcoin (BTC) is currently $67,151.90, following a 0.77% increase in the past 24 hours. Various factors, such as the recovery of inflows to spot Bitcoin ETFs, are believed to have contributed to this resurgence. Due to the ongoing recovery, its market capitalization has increased to $1.3 trillion. Nevertheless, the current Bitcoin transaction volume statistics suggest an unexpected decline.
The trading volume of Bitcoin has increased by 29.14% over the past 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. BTC is the second most traded position in the digital asset market, valued at $23,328,879,874. Bitcoin is likely to break new territory, provided that the BTC hashrate remains consistent.
