#BTCHashratePeak Bitcoin's hashrate has reached new heights, with recent peaks varying according to different sources. Here are some notable milestones ¹ ² ³:
- *Recent Peaks:*
- 1.046 zettahashes per second: A new all-time high recorded on June 12, 2025, marking the strongest security level in Bitcoin's history.
- *950 exahashes per second*: A peak reached in August 2025, reflecting miner enthusiasm despite Bitcoin's stable value.
- *945 exahashes per second*: Recorded on July 27, 2025, just shy of the historical peak of 946 EH/s.
- *741 exahashes per second*: A peak reached on October 26, 2024, representing a 9.6% increase in a week and a 16.6% surge in a month.
- *Current Hashrate:* Around 739.55 exahashes per second, according to CoinWarz, with a mining difficulty of 129.44 T at block height 909,345.
The increasing hashrate enhances Bitcoin's security, making it more resistant to attacks. However, it also poses challenges for miners, particularly smaller firms, as profitability becomes more dependent on cost efficiency due to rising energy costs and decreasing block rewards,
