Of course, this is all relative considering that it’s going for $55/PH/day rn, which was last Halving epoch’s all-time low.” Hashrate Index Analysts find positivity in compressed mining economics, which are slowing hashrate growth. Despite Bitcoin’s recent surge, hashrate growth has been sluggish, with analysts predicting only a minor increase in the next difficulty adjustment. “Bitcoin’s hashrate has bottomed and is back to 600 EH/s on the 7-day average. Future growth depends on Bitcoin’s price. With compressed hashprice and the North American summer ahead, hashrate may stay between 600-700 EH/s through Q2 and Q3.” Hashrate Index Looking ahead, analysts at Hashrate Index suggest that U.S. miners might mine less BTC in the summer, which could slow down hashrate growth. Though miners in other places might make up for it, offering insights into the broader global landscape of hashrate expansion, the analysts noted.
