Total Bitcoin hashrate
Estimated mining hashrate securing Bitcoin — miner investment and network security over time.
Security budget
Higher hashrate means more energy securing the chain against attacks.
Follows economics
Hashrate often rises after profitable periods and adjusts down when miners exit.
Halving impact
After halvings, inefficient rigs may switch off until difficulty resets.
See difficulty
Difficulty retargets every ~2 weeks to keep 10-minute blocks.
