Short Description
Hashrate refers to the total computational power being used to secure the Bitcoin network by solving cryptographic puzzles through the SHA-256 algorithm. Itβs measured in hashes per second (H/s), with large-scale operations typically expressed in exahashes (EH/s) β one exahash equals one quintillion hashes per second. Hashrate serves as a key indicator of network security, miner activity, and infrastructure scale. Today, the global Bitcoin network measures in the hundreds of EH/s and is steadily climbing, reflecting the industrial intensity of modern BTC mining.
