Bitcoin's mining difficulty fell by 0.74% at block 959616, marking the 15th adjustment in 2026 with nine decreases and six increases overall, resulting in a 13.82% net decline. This reflects miners facing economic pressure as Bitcoin's price dropped 26% since January, reducing daily mining revenue (hashprice) from $37.39 to $32.21 per petahash. Many miners are repurposing their hardware for artificial intelligence and cloud computing, as these uses become more profitable than mining. The difficulty adjustment mechanism continues to maintain block production every ten minutes, but the network's future depends on Bitcoin's price recovery and competition with AI infrastructure demand.
