Global Bitcoin hashrate dips 5.8% – Iran, U.S. lead BTC mining slowdown

Global Bitcoin hashrate declined by 5.8% in Q2 2026, falling from 1,066 EH/s to 1,004 EH/s, signaling a bearish trend for the mining ecosystem. This drop is attributed to both geopolitical tensions and Bitcoin's 50% price decline from its October all-time high, which pushed hash prices to record lows. The U.S., Russia, and China remain the top mining nations, collectively holding 65% of the global hashrate. China saw a 1.35% decline due to enforcement actions, while Iran and the U.S. also experienced reductions. Miner profitability has been squeezed, with a significant increase in "extremely underpaid" miners at the start of Q2.

Bitcoin Miner Riot Transfers Out Another 500 BTC Amid AI Push

Bitcoin mining firm Riot Platforms has transferred 500 BTC, valued at $34.13 million, to an unknown wallet, suggesting a potential sale. This follows a previous $200 million Bitcoin sale in late 2025. Riot, one of the world's largest public miners with 38.50 EH/s, holds Bitcoin as a treasury asset and is expanding into AI and high-performance computing, which may be linked to the sale. Prior to the transfer, Riot held 18,005 BTC, ranking seventh among public Bitcoin treasury firms. Meanwhile, Bitcoin's mining difficulty is expected to increase by 4.17% due to a faster average block time of 9.60 minutes. Bitcoin's price hovers around $66,100 after recent sideways movement.

MARA’s pivot to AI is net positive for Bitcoin, experts believe – Here’s why

Public Bitcoin miners like Marathon Digital (MARA) are increasingly shifting resources toward AI, a move analysts see as beneficial for the remaining Bitcoin mining ecosystem. While this pivot reduces the overall network hashrate, it leads to a decrease in mining difficulty. This, in turn, improves profit margins for the solo and medium-sized miners who continue operating. MARA recently sold over $1 billion in BTC to reduce debt and fund its new AI data center venture, a trend followed by other major miners. The current cycle shows the lowest network difficulty growth as a result. Analysts suggest this creates a more balanced ecosystem with less hash rate controlled by large public companies. Furthermore, a potential energy price increase, triggered by an extended closure of the Strait of Hormuz, could disadvantage oil-dependent miners and further benefit smaller operations with stable power agreements. Although miner distress eased in early March, supporting BTC's price recovery, a drop below $65,000 could trigger another wave of miner sell-offs and put downward pressure on the price.

Bitcoin hash rate drops 10% – Is this a warning or BTC’s bullish reset?

Bitcoin's hash rate has declined by over 10% to 904.53 EH/s, extending an 8% weekly drop from recent peaks. This contraction reflects increasing miner stress following price corrections, with network difficulty also expected to decrease further. Despite these pressures, BTC's price remains relatively stable near $70,650. The divergence suggests miners are tactically shutting down operations rather than liquidating assets, indicating a period of de-risking. Miner reserves have gradually decreased, but exchange inflows remain steady, showing limited immediate selling pressure. This behavior points toward a potential network reset that historically precedes more sustainable recovery phases, though prolonged compression could still trigger delayed sell-side risks.

Is AI Killing Bitcoin Mining? Here’s The Truth

A new debate suggests AI data centers, as richer buyers of electricity, could threaten Bitcoin mining by outbidding for power. Crypto influencer Ran Neuner argued AI has "killed Bitcoin" by competing for scarce energy, citing higher revenue per megawatt ($200–$500 for AI vs. $57–$129 for Bitcoin) and miner pivots to AI. However, analysts push back. Willy Woo emphasizes Bitcoin’s adaptive difficulty adjustment: if high-cost miners exit, the network adjusts, maintaining security. Daniel Batten calls the claim "nonsense," arguing AI may actually depend on Bitcoin mining for energy monetization during data center construction, using stranded energy, and smoothing demand patterns. He stresses mining economics are nuanced, involving variable costs, heat recycling, and renewable energy opportunities. The article concludes that AI may reshape mining but won’t kill Bitcoin.

Bitcoin Difficulty Holds Flat As Hashrate Moves Sideways

Bitcoin's mining difficulty remained nearly unchanged in the latest biweekly adjustment, increasing by only 0.45%. This follows a period of sideways movement in the network's hashrate, indicating that miners are neither significantly expanding nor reducing their operational capacity. The stability comes after a period of volatility caused by a severe snowstorm in the United States in late January, which forced miners to temporarily reduce power usage, causing a sharp drop in hashrate and a subsequent major difficulty decrease. Following a quick recovery, the hashrate has since stabilized. Meanwhile, Bitcoin's price, which recently surpassed $70,000, has pulled back and is now trading around $68,300.

Bitcoin Mining Difficulty Erases Frost-Driven Dips With A Sharp Rebound – What This Means For BTC

Bitcoin mining difficulty has sharply rebounded after a brief weather-related decline, signaling renewed miner participation and network resilience. Despite Bitcoin's price pressure and consolidation near $63,000—well below its recent $70,000 level—the difficulty recovery indicates sustained miner confidence. The temporary dip was caused by severe winter storms disrupting energy supplies in key mining regions, forcing some hashrate offline. However, miners quickly restored operations, pushing difficulty back to new highs. This rebound reinforces strong network fundamentals but may increase cost pressures on less efficient miners if BTC remains range-bound. Technically, Bitcoin shows weakened momentum, trading below key moving averages, with $60,000–$63,000 acting as critical support. A break below could lead to deeper retracement, while reclaiming $70,000 is necessary for a bullish shift.

Bitcoin Hashpower Returns, Difficulty Sees Biggest Jump In Months

Bitcoin's mining difficulty surged by approximately 15% to over 144 trillion, reversing a previous 10% drop caused by U.S. winter storm-related shutdowns. Miners curtailed operations to support power grids and received payments for returning electricity. The rebound in hash rate triggered the protocol’s automatic difficulty increase, which strengthens security but reduces profitability for less efficient miners. Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s price hovered near $68,000 amid geopolitical tensions and cautious trading. The U.S. now plays a major role in global hash power, making regional events significant for network stability. Some miners now use flexible energy agreements to balance grid demand and create additional revenue streams.

Bitcoin Difficulty To Rise 14% Thursday—Why The Massive Jump?

Bitcoin's mining difficulty is set to increase by over 14% in the upcoming adjustment on Thursday, February 19th. This significant jump is a result of miners operating much faster than the expected 10-minute block time, with an average block time of 8.75 minutes since the last adjustment. The rapid pace follows a recovery in the network's hashrate after a temporary decline caused by a severe snowstorm in the United States in late January. During the storm, miners reduced operations to ease pressure on the electrical grid, leading to an 11% difficulty drop in the previous adjustment. As mining activity has now rebounded to pre-storm levels, the network is correcting the difficulty upward to maintain the target block production rate. Meanwhile, Bitcoin's price continues to trade sideways around $67,600.

Bitcoin Mining Difficulty Falls By 11% In Largest Drop Since China’s Ban – Details

Bitcoin mining difficulty has dropped by 11.6%, marking the largest single decline since China's 2021 mining ban. This adjustment reflects increased miner capitulation due to recent bearish market conditions, where Bitcoin's price fell significantly, pushing many miners into unprofitability. The current mining difficulty now stands at 125.86T. Despite the drop, Bitcoin's self-adjusting mechanism ensures continuous block production, and a new influx of miners is anticipated. At the time of writing, Bitcoin trades at $69,357, with mining costs averaging around $67,704, indicating ongoing pressure on mining profitability.
