As of writing, Bitcoin’s hash rate stood at 108 EH\/s, according to BitInfoCharts<\/a>.<\/p>\n In July mining difficulty for digital gold fell by 4.81% \u2014 to 13.67 T<\/a>. The next recalculation will occur in about two days. It is expected to rise by 4.47% \u2014 to 14.28 T.<\/p>\n Earlier, Bitfury Group estimated that after the de facto ban on cryptocurrencies in China, miners had shut down equipment with a combined hash rate of 90 EH\/s. The company estimated that the relocation of the devices would be completed in Q2 2022.<\/p>\n Although China’s crackdown targeted primarily Bitcoin mining, rolling blackouts have also affected Ethereum miners. At the end of June, a month after reaching an all-time high, the hash rate of the second cryptocurrency fell by 20%<\/a> \u2014 below 500 TH\/s.<\/p>\n In July the metric began to recover. After hitting a local low, its 7-day moving average chart has followed an upward trend. At the time of writing the network’s average hash rate stands at 526 TH\/s, according to BTC.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n The recovery of the hash rate suggests that at least some Chinese miners have successfully moved and connected their equipment.<\/p>\n BIT Mining Limited announced the signing of an agreement to purchase 2,500 Bitcoin miners for $6.6 million<\/a>, which will lift capacity by 165 PH\/s. The purchased equipment will be shipped to Kazakhstan.<\/p>\n The company has also begun Ethereum mining outside Mainland China with a hash rate exceeding 86 GH\/s.<\/p>\n In a conversation with The Block<\/a>, BitRiver CEO Igor Runets noted that with the onset of blackouts in China the company signed contracts with Chinese clients to provide 150 MW of capacity.<\/p>\n In its Q2 2021 financial report, Bit Digital stated that in the previous three months it shipped 14,500 ASIC miners to the United States<\/a>. At that time, more than 20% of its devices were already based in the United States, and a further 44.6% were in transit or awaiting installation.<\/p>\n![\\\"\u0425\u0435\u0448\u0440\u0435\u0439\u0442](\\\"https:\/\/u1f987.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/btc-difficult.png\\\")
