Bitcoin Hashrate Slides As Foundry USA Loses 200 EH/s In US Cold Snap

The United States winter storm has significantly impacted Bitcoin mining, with Foundry USA, the world's largest mining pool, losing nearly 60% of its hashrate—dropping from 340 EH/s to 139 EH/s. This disruption contributed to a sharp decline in the total Bitcoin network hashrate, which fell from around 1,118 EH/s to a low of 668 EH/s. As a result, average block time has slowed to 12.28 minutes, exceeding the target 10-minute interval. The network is expected to adjust its Difficulty metric in response, with an estimated 18% reduction to compensate for the loss in mining power. Meanwhile, Bitcoin's price has declined 5.7% over the past week to around $87,700.
