Since June 1st, mining difficulty is up ~0.5%. 🧵👇
Year-to-date, Bitcoin mining difficulty is up just 16%.
2025 is on pace to have the slowest growth for mining difficulty in Bitcoin history.
Mining growth will continue to slow down for three reasons:
- Mining Hardware Reaching Moore’s Law Limit
- Physical Infrastructure & Energy Production as the Bottleneck for Growth
- Data Center Operators Diversifying into High Performance Computing / AI
This is bullish for Bitcoin miners as it means less competition for the 450 BTC that are mined daily.
While BTC/USD steadily climbs higher into six-figure territory, Bitcoin miners continue to arbitrage compute and energy to produce BTC at a significant discount to the market price.
Right now an S21 XP hosted at Blockware's site is producing 1 BTC for ~$55,000 in electricity.
Besides producing BTC at a major discount to the market price, another benefit of Bitcoin mining is 100% depreciation of the hardware costs.
Tax benefits + BTC accumulation.
This is how generational wealth is created.
