📊 #bitcoinminingdifficultymayfall1.2%
| What does the difficulty in mining mean in times of hardship?
Bitcoin mining difficulty has decreased since the Q4 2025 peak of 142 tera to around 127 tera today. It’s important to clarify what that means.
🔍 What’s happening?
➔ Difficulty decreases when mining devices go offline from the network.
Three consecutive downward adjustments— the first such streak since July 2022—while hashprice fell to about US$29 per terahash per day, pushing an estimated 15% to 20% of the network below the profitability threshold.
💡 THE UPSIDE FOR THOSE WHO KEEP MINING:
The non-obvious part is that for miners who continue operating, lower difficulty is positive.
The block reward is fixed; so when the hash rate leaves the network, the same reward is split among fewer devices.
➔ Revenue per unit of hash is recovered even if the price of Bitcoin stays unchanged.
