#BTCHashratePeak

Highest levels of mining to date

In July 2025, the hashrate achieved a historic leap reaching 955.75 EH/s, driven by strong expansions by mining companies such as Marathon Digital, Bitfarms, and others.

Prior to that, the rate reached around 943 EH/s at the end of May 2025, which represented a historical peak at that time.

Dynamic and rapidly evolving dynamics

In early August, the daily average for Bitcoin hashrate registered 952.5 EH/s, surpassing the previous record (943.6 EH/s), despite the market dealing with a decline in Bitcoin price.

Recent data indicates that the rate approached 970 EH/s, representing a new level of processing power in the network.

What does this increase mean?

Network security: The higher the hashrate, the greater the ability to resist cyber attacks such as 51% attacks, enhancing the system's security.

Intensity of competition and operating costs: Increased computing power raises the mining difficulty, putting pressure on miners' profits, especially small ones.

Miners' confidence in the future of Bitcoin: It is uncommon for miners to increase mining capacity during times of price decline, reflecting their expectations for market improvement in the future.
