Hashprice Falls 6.65% in Three Days

As of Saturday, March 28, the network is running at 1.02 ZH/s, or 1,022 EH/s. The seven-day average from hashrateindex.com sits at 1,007 EH/s. On March 18, that same seven-day simple moving average (SMA) was at 931 EH/s — meaning miners have added roughly 76 EH/s of computational power in ten days.

The last difficulty adjustment brought the difficulty down 7.76%. The next epoch is due April 2, 2026, and the estimated change at that point is an increase of around 6.43%. Blocks have been coming in faster than the 10-minute target, averaging one every 9 minutes and 23 seconds over the past day.

So far, around 1,200 of the 2,016 blocks needed for the next difficulty change have been found. Revenue remains tight. Hashprice hit a March high of $33.85 per PH/s per day on March 25, but has since fallen 6.65% to $31.60 per PH/s — a drop of $2.25 in three days. These figures are still near lows not seen since Bitcoin’s earliest years.

Miners are earning around 3.14 BTC per block, including fees. Onchain fees made up just 0.43% of total block reward over the past day, with fees sitting at 2.4 satoshis per virtual byte (sats/vB). According to bitinfocharts.com, the average transfer fee works out to roughly 0.000004 BTC, or about $0.27 per transaction.

The hashrate recovering above 1 ZH/s while hashprice stays depressed tells you something about miner behavior. Operators are still keeping machines online despite much thinner margins. Block intervals running faster than the 10-minute target means a likely upward difficulty adjustment is coming on April 2, which will squeeze revenue further. Fees aren’t picking up the slack at 2.4 sats/vB.

Miners are likely betting that conditions improve before the economics force a decision.
