The block contained 1,129 transactions, which brought the miner an additional 0.006 BTC ($562) in fees. The miner rented power from the NiceHash platform, paying $90. No further information about the user’s hashrate<\/a> is available.\u00a0<\/p>\n

On January 15, another solo miner successfully added block #932,373 to the network, earning a total of $304,814.<\/p>\n

Hashrate at a Low\u00a0<\/h2>\n

For the first time since mid-September, Bitcoin’s computational power dropped<\/a> below the psychological mark of 1,000 EH<\/span>\/s, reaching 992 EH\/s. Experts attributed this trend to miners shifting focus to artificial intelligence.\u00a0<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, the figure had recovered to 1,013 EH\/s, still significantly below the historical high of 1,157 EH\/s recorded in October.<\/p>\n

The difficulty of Bitcoin mining continues to decrease<\/a>. In the latest adjustment, it fell by 1.2% to 146.47 T. This eases cryptocurrency mining by reducing the computational work required to find a block.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Over the past week, the hashprice<\/span> decreased from $42 to $38.5 per PH\/s per day.<\/p>\n
