๐ Bitcoin mining difficulty hits a new ATH! โ๏ธ๐
BTC mining difficulty jumped 5.6% to a record 114.7T, meaning miners now need 114.7 trillion calculations to find a block and earn 3.125 BTC. ๐
This surge comes as the network's hash rate also set a new record, showing strong activity from major mining pools. However, the Hash Ribbon indicator suggests some miners are shutting down due to lower profitability. โก๏ธ
Historically, miner capitulation has signaled Bitcoin bottomsโjust like in October 2024, when BTC rallied 50% after a similar pattern. Could this be another buy-the-dip moment? ๐ค๐
