#BitcoinHashRateSurge Bitcoin's hash rate has recently climbed to record-breaking levels, ranging between 813 and 823 exahashes per second (EH/s) as of January 3, 2025. This significant growth follows a series of difficulty adjustments, with the latest on December 29, 2024, pushing the mining difficulty to an all-time high of 109.78 trillion. The surge underscores the network's robustness and ability to grow despite market challenges. Major mining pools such as Foundry USA, Antpool, and Viabtc are key contributors, with Foundry USA accounting for over 37% of the total hash rate. This growth highlights the increasing role of industrial-scale miners in Bitcoin's ecosystem.$BTC
