The Bitcoin network has set a new record, but not in price: mining difficulty has remained below its all-time high for 374 consecutive days. $BTC
The difficulty peak was 155.97 T on October 29, 2025, and the network has not surpassed that level since. The current stretch exceeds the previous record of 364 days, which followed the 2011 crash, as well as the 253 days after China’s 2021 mining ban.
This period is attributed to the price of $BTC hovering around $76,000 and high operating costs. As a result, some publicly traded miners have sold their Bitcoin reserves and converted their sites’ power capacity to host AI.
These figures describe what has happened so far; they don’t necessarily mean difficulty will remain low or that the price will move in any particular direction.
If you’re following the mining sector, difficulty remaining below its peak may mean that cost pressures on miners haven’t eased, and could lead some of them to sell more reserves or expand into AI.
Watch for mining companies’ announcements about reserve sales and power conversions; these are a faster signal than price movements alone.
Do you expect miners to keep selling their reserves? 👇
