The network hash rate jumped 31.69% — from 188.40 EH/s to 248.11 EH/s — in just one day, further ensuring resilience against attacks on the Bitcoin network.
The Bitcoin (BTC) network has recorded a new hash rate all-time high of 248.11M TH/s as of Feb. 12, 2022, further securing the decentralized ecosystem through a growing network of global BTC miners.
The hash rate correlates to the computing power required by a miner’s computer equipment to confirm a transaction. The recent spike in BTC’s network hash rate ensures further security against attacks by deterring bad actors from confirming fraudulent transactions.
