It has never been as difficult to mine a block on the Bitcoin network, but it is also the most secure it has ever been thanks to recent hash rate highs. How long can miners sustain this pace?
Of the known global mining pools, AntPool and F2Pool are have contributed the most hash power. Antpool accounts for 96 blocks mined over the last four days while F2Pool accounts for 93 according to data from Blockchain.com.
Regardless of the measuring tools used, both hash rate and mining difficulty have been on the upswing since hitting deep troughs last July. At the time, the hash rate bottomed out at about 69 .A greater hash rate, however, means greater security for the network. The more hash power the network uses, the more distributed the work is for each transaction that takes place on-chain.
