Bitcoin Mining Difficulty Hits All-Time High Bitcoin mining has become harder, according to data from CoinWarz. The difficulty of Bitcoin has increased in the latest adjustment. This feature of the Bitcoin blockchain controls the difficulty of mining blocks and is measured in hashes. The value of this metric changes every two weeks in a network adjustment. The aim of this feature is to keep the time for each block to be produced around 10 minutes. In the latest adjustment, the difficulty has increased sharply, from 108.1 terahas to 114.1 terahas, a new record. This 5.6% increase reflects the higher speed of miners over the past two weeks. The hash rate has also reached a new record of 845,200 terahas per second.
