Bitcoin Network Hashrate Nears June High

According to Happycoin.club, Bitcoin's network hashrate reached 942.96 exahashes per second (EH/s) on July 27, just 3 EH/s below the previous high recorded in June. The high level is due to increased mining profitability in recent weeks. According to hashrateindex.com, the price per unit of computing power (petahash per second, PH/s) rose from around $54 on June 27 to a peak of around $64 on July 10, the largest jump in a month. However, the sharp rise was followed by a decline, with the price subsequently fluctuating between $58 and $62 per PH/s.
Since mid-July, the price per hash has stabilized just below the $60 mark. At the same time, Bitcoin blocks are now being mined faster than usual - on average in 9 minutes 44 seconds instead of the standard 10 minutes. If this pace continues, then in early August, the mining difficulty will likely increase.
Foundry remains the leader in computing power among mining pools, with a capacity of 247 exahash per second. Antpool takes second place with 183 EH/s. ViaBTC rounds out the top three. F2pool, MARA Pool, Spiderpool and Secpool follow. Luxor, Binance Pool and Braiins Pool are also in the top ten. In the context of increasing competition between pools, it is the efficiency and speed of block mining that will play a decisive role in the fight for rewards.
Thus, the stable growth of the hash rate and high profitability make Bitcoin mining increasingly attractive, despite the inevitable increase in mining complexity in the near future.
