صعوبة تعدين البيتكوين ستنخفض لأول مرة في عام 2026، هل سيتمكن المعدنون من التنفس بسهولة؟

【Coin Circle】Bitcoin mining difficulty slightly decreased to 1.464 quadrillion at the first adjustment in 2026, providing miners who have endured a year of hardship with a brief respite. Lowering costs and improving efficiency—this year has been challenging for the entire industry.

However, don’t celebrate too soon—block time has already exceeded 10 minutes. According to protocol rules, the next adjustment on January 22 is expected to push difficulty back to around 1.482 quadrillion.

It appears difficulty is still hovering at elevated levels, reflecting the lingering effects of the 2024 halving turmoil. Miners’ days are indeed tough, with profitability indicators like hash price already falling below sustainable levels. The short-term difficulty decrease looks more like a buffer than a turning point. The entire mining ecosystem still needs to adapt to this new normal of high difficulty and low profits.
