[Wu Blockchain News] Bitcoin Mining Difficulty Has Remained Below Its ATH for 374 Consecutive Days, Setting an All-Time Record

Bitcoin’s mining difficulty has stayed below its all-time high of 155.97 T for 374 consecutive days, the longest such streak on record, exceeding the prior 364-day gap after the 2011 crash and the 253-day stretch following China’s 2021 mining ban. The extended plateau comes as BTC trades near $76,000 and rising operating costs pressure miners, prompting publicly listed firms to sell Bitcoin reserves and redirect site power toward AI colocation. The milestone matters because it signals a prolonged period of constrained miner economics and capital reallocation rather than a difficulty reset driven by a single shock.
