Specialized computer hardware designed for cryptocurrency mining

The process of validating transactions and creating new blocks through computational work

What is Block Reward?

The Block Reward is the cryptocurrency prize that a miner or a validator receives for successfully creating and adding a new, valid block of transactions to the blockchain.

What is Block Height?

The Block Height is the total number of blocks that have been successfully added to the blockchain since the very first one (Genesis Block).

In Proof of Work mining, the Nonce is a random number that miners change over and over again to try and create the correct hash for a new block.

What is Mining Difficulty?

The measure of how hard it is to mine a new block on a blockchain

Définition

The computational power of a mining network measured in hashes per second

Bitcoins hashrate exceeds 600 EH/s in 2025, reflecting robust security; fluctuations can signal miner sentiment toward profitability and network health. Hashrate Metrics: 1 EH/s: 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 hashes per second. Network Distribution: Top 5 pools control ~65%. Geographic Spread: USA 35%, Kazakhstan 18%, Russia 11%. Historical Growth: 2010: 8 MH/s → 2015: 300 PH/s → 2020: 120 EH/s → 2025: 600+ EH/s.
