Bitcoin (BTC) mining may rise to become the most difficult it’s ever been in five days from now. Meanwhile, miners continue spending. If the BTC.com estimates come true, bitcoin mining difficulty, or the measure of how hard it is to compete for mining rewards, will rise nearly 3% during its next adjustment, which would bring it up to 17.45 T – a new all-time high. Previous all-time high was 17.35 T, seen three adjustments ago, in mid-July. The difficulty kept to the upper end of 16 T since then, sitting near the border with 17 T as the level it had reached only that one time in July. Perhaps the second time will be in five days. Meanwhile, the hashrate (the computational power of the network) has been experiencing some trouble. As reported yesterday, it dropped some 25% in just three days
