⛏️ Bitcoin mining difficulty fell by 9.13% — the biggest drop since June
On November 14, 2026, at block height 975,744, the Bitcoin network automatically lowered mining difficulty by 9.13%, from 148.36 to 134.82 trillion. This is confirmed by data from the Mempool explorer.
The decrease was the largest since June 14, when difficulty fell by 10.09%. The figure is recalculated every 2,016 blocks to maintain an average block interval of about ten minutes as miners’ computing power changes.
For equipment with an unchanged hashrate, finding a block is now statistically easier. But a change in difficulty does not guarantee an increase in the price of BTC and, by itself, does not prove that miners are shutting down en masse.
