Bitcoin mining difficulty has remained below its all-time high for 374 consecutive days.
Bitcoin.com News reported that this is the longest such period in the network’s history, surpassing the previous record set after the 2011 crash. Economist and author Saifedean Ammous noted the milestone on Saturday. The difficulty peak occurred in October 2025.
· Difficulty remaining below its peak for an extended period means the adjustment corresponding to the current hashrate has yet to return to that high.
· The report only records the duration, and provides no data on hashrate, miner revenue, or price.
Would you look at the difficulty adjustment first, or changes in hashrate?
