Recently, Bitcoin's mining difficulty has slightly decreased after reaching an all-time high. Meanwhile, some companies continue to increase their production volumes.
Change in Bitcoin Mining Difficulty
Bitcoin's mining difficulty fell to 126.4 trillion after hitting a record of 126.9 trillion on May 31, at the start of the previous difficulty adjustment period.
Financial Challenges for Miners
Miners are facing financial pressures due to reduced block rewards, rising operational costs, and increased mining difficulty, impacting their profitability.
Production Growth Among Some Companies
Despite challenges, some publicly traded Bitcoin mining firms are increasing their operational capacity. For example, MARA announced a 35% increase in Bitcoin production, while CleanSpark also reported a 9% increase.
In the face of rising difficulty and decreasing block rewards, some companies are adapting by increasing production capacities and shifting strategies to accumulate Bitcoin as a reserve asset.
