Wu Blockchain (@WuBlockchain): Bitcoin Mining Difficulty Drops 9.55%, Second-Largest Decline This Year

Bitcoin Mining Difficulty Drops 9.55%, Second-Largest Decline This Year According to TheEnergyMag, Bitcoin mining difficulty is expected to fall by approximately 9.55% in about eight hours, marking the second-largest decline this year, following a sharp drop in network hashrate caused by early June price weakness. The adjustment is expected to increase BTC output per active hashrate by over 9%. It may also push mining hashprice back above $30 per PH/s. Beyond the shutdown of older mining rigs due to profitability pressure, another key driver of the hashrate decline is the reallocation of power capacity toward high-performance computing (HPC) and AI data centers.
