The Bitcoin network's seven-day average hash rate reached 1,031.61 exahashes per second on October 17, marking the highest level since May 29. Miners increased their combined holdings by 379 BTC over the week, totaling 1,192,622 BTC. Despite the rise in hash rate, the Puell Multiple indicator fell to 0.99, indicating that the daily dollar value of newly issued BTC was slightly below its one-year average. This suggests more computing power is active on the network, but miner profitability has not necessarily improved.
