Hash Rate
What Is Hash Rate?
The total computational power dedicated to Bitcoin mining, measured in exahashes per second (EH/s). Higher hash rate = more secure network.
How to Interpret
All-time high hash rate = very secure network with strong miner commitment. Hash rate drops indicate miner stress or equipment transitions.
More Mining Metrics
Difficulty Regression
A model that tracks Bitcoin's price relative to mining difficulty. Since miners are key price-insensitive sellers, the relationship between price and difficulty provides fundamental price support levels.
Hash Ribbons
Compares the 30-day and 60-day moving averages of Bitcoin's hash rate. When the 30d MA crosses below the 60d MA, it signals miner capitulation; crossing back above signals recovery.
Profitable Mining Days
The percentage of days in which mining at the current hash rate and difficulty would have been profitable. Indicates the overall health and sustainability of mining.
Hashprice
The daily revenue miners earn per unit of hash rate (typically per terahash per second per day in USD). The key economic metric for mining profitability.
