Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and Bitcoin Satoshi’s Vision (BSV) miners are shifting to Bitcoin. Every miner wants to mine as many blocks as they can before the halving.

The blocks are mined on a 50% premium because the block reward will be reduced to 6.25 BTC from 12.5 BTC after the halving. Keeping the difficulty the same the cost of the mining is 2x after the halving.

Hash Rate ATH

The total hash rate of the Bitcoin network sets a new record. Hash rate is the total computational power of the network. An increase in hash rate means the network becomes stronger.

Hash rate will increase due to new mining rigs added to the network or up-gradation of existing rigs. Hash rate is a direct symbol that people are interested in the coin and want to mine it.
