Data from Hashrate Index shows that the Bitcoin network’s seven-day simple moving average network hashrate hit an all-time high of 805 EH/s on December 15th. The current reading outperformed the previous high of 789 EH/s recorded on 22nd November.
Bitcoin miners also seem to reap better revenue as the asset’s prices continue to surge. Data from Hashrate Index shows that the Bitcoin hashprice index also surged to $64.53/PHS/Day on December 16th, a figure last seen earlier this month.
The increasing hash power has caused fluctuations in block times that have dropped below the ten-minute average. According to BitInfoCharts, Bitcoin’s block time has dropped below ten minutes six times since December 1st, with the lowest figure being 8.471 minutes recorded on December 13th.
A chart from Glassnode shows that Bitcoin mining difficulty has also increased significantly, hitting new all-time highs. The higher difficulty enhances the Bitcoin network’s security, making it more resilient and less prone to attacks.
Amid the rising Bitcoin hashprice, leading BTC mining companies registered positive mining results in November. Marathon Holdings announced November was a record-breaking month that saw the miner mine 907 BTC, increasing production by 26% month-over-month.

The U.S.-based mining firm currently ranks third among major corporate Bitcoin holders, including software company Microstrategy and Bitcoin mining firm Marathon Digital Holdings.
