Bitcoin's mining difficulty is set to increase by about 6.7% this Friday, marking its largest rise since June. This adjustment comes as Bitcoin trades near $82,300, roughly 3% below JPMorgan's estimated $85,000 cost to mine one coin. The higher difficulty means miners will earn less per machine unless Bitcoin's price rises. Despite this, miners are reportedly not under pressure to sell, with some large miners operating below market price and a mixed outlook on miner revenue for the next six months. A sustained Bitcoin price above $85,000 could ease mining profitability pressures.
