#BitcoinHashRateSurge Recent blockchain data indicates that the Bitcoin hashrate has reached a new all-time high on Friday, January 3rd, 2025. This surge comes as the top cryptocurrency makes a recovery from a disappointing end to 2024, showing positive signs for the market.
Relationship Between Bitcoin Price And Hashrate
The hashrate measures the total computing power securing a Proof-of-Work blockchain network like Bitcoin. It reflects network participation and mining difficulty. A higher hashrate implies increased network security due to more computational resources dedicated to mining activities.
On Friday, the Bitcoin hashrate peaked at over 1,000 exahashes per second (EH/s), a new milestone. Subsequently, it has settled around 783.02 EH/s, according to the latest data available.
