Mining
Bitcoin mining today
The miners secure Bitcoin with 926 EH/s together, and each block pays its finder 3.155 BTC. The next difficulty adjustment is expected in 5 hours: −8.57 %.
Next difficulty adjustment
Every 2’016 blocks Bitcoin adjusts how hard it is to find a block, so that one is found about every 10 minutes. If blocks came faster, it gets harder; if slower, easier.
Block heights, times and difficulty from mempool.space, every two minutes. The expected change and date assume the period goes on at its average pace so far.
Who finds the blocks
Miners pool their computing power and share the rewards. These pools found the past week's blocks.
