Bitcoin mining continues to demonstrate robust upward momentum, as indicated by recent data from CloverPool. On January 13th, the mining difficulty underwent a significant adjustment at block height 878,976, occurring at 04:01:51 Beijing time. This adjustment resulted in a 0.61% increase in difficulty, bringing it to a record high of 110.45 T. The rising difficulty is reflective of the increasing network hash rate, which averaged 776.91 EH/s over the preceding week. Analysts anticipate that the next difficulty adjustment may further escalate to 111.22 T, suggesting a potential increase of 0.70%. This continued growth in mining difficulty underscores the resilience of the Bitcoin network and the ongoing competition among miners, emphasizing the asset’s capacity to adapt to rising computational demands.
