#BitcoinHashRateSurge
Bitcoin is reaching all-time highs, reflecting the increasing computing power and robustness of the network despite market challenges. This rise represents a significant milestone in Bitcoin’s history and reflects increased miner activity and technological developments.
New record
The hashrate of $BTC surpassed 1,000 exahashes per second (EH/s) on January 3, 2025, almost double that of January 2024. This rise reflects increased security and could precede a price increase, with Bitcoin currently at $98,264 (+5% on the week).
The United States now dominates with 40% of the global hashrate, but Chinese pools retain a strong influence. Despite this rise, the profitability of mining companies remains mixed.
