Bitcoin mining difficulty has fallen by 10%, according to the supplied Cointelegraph source, making it the second-largest downward difficulty adjustment of the year.
The adjustment matters because mining difficulty is a key part of Bitcoin’s operating design, influencing how hard it is for miners to produce new blocks.
