On Friday, Bitcoin’s computing strength surged to an all-time high peak (EH/s) of 862 exhahash (EH/s), crushing previous benchmarks for the 852 EH/s set when February began.

On March 28, the network’s total processing speed rose to 862 EH/s, passing the previous milestone at the critical 10 EH/s. Data from HashrateIndex.com tracked a simple 7-day moving average (SMA) and revealed that the system was ham at 857.77 EH/S as of 10:30am Eastern time.

Bitcoin’s latest calculation milestones have emerged within the current difficulty level of 113.76 trillion. Currently, forecasts suggest that the difficulty adjustments scheduled to be readjusted around April 5, 2025 are poised to climb at an estimated 5.33%, potentially pushing past previous historic peaks.
However, these predictions remain fluid, leading to the whims of network activity until the next algorithm readjusts arrive. The price of BTC has dropped, which could lead to strong calculations when Bitcoin Miner’s revenues drop. Two days ago, the predicted value (ph/s) of hash pris, or 1 peta hash per second, was registered at $50.27. Today, it is currently resting at $47.11 per petahash.
The question is now fascinating: how can this calculation momentum evolve as Bitcoin valuation drops, and will the network be braced due to the expected escalation of difficulties?
