Bitcoin's mining difficulty fell 7.76% to 133.79 trillion at block height 941,472, leaving it roughly 10% below the level at the start of the year. Hashrate estimates have slid to about 903–948 EH/s, while hashprice is near $33.30/PH/s/day, a range some miners cite as close to breakeven. Several public miners have also outlined plans to shift infrastructure and capital from BTC mining toward AI and high-performance computing.
