Bitcoin Hashrate Hits All-Time High as Publicly-Listed Miners' Share of the Network Peaks
Briefly

Bitcoin's hashrate has surpassed 700 EH/s for the first time, demonstrating significant growth in mining activity, driven by increased transaction fees and higher bitcoin prices.
The contribution of public bitcoin miners to the hashrate is rising rapidly, reflecting a shift in market share towards top miners while smaller, less efficient operations struggle to survive.
The highest gains in hashrate growth over the last year are attributed to companies like CleanSpark, MARA Holdings, and Riot Platforms, which are becoming more dominant in the sector.
As mining becomes capital-intensive and block rewards decrease, weaker miners face financial pressure, potentially leading to a consolidation within the industry favoring efficient, well-capitalized miners.
