Quick Take
As Bitcoin (BTC) approaches its next halving event in April 2024, a unique pattern of progress marked by diminishing returns is becoming apparent. The hash rate, a critical measure of miners’ performance, is currently soaring above 400 Eh/s, maintaining a robust growth momentum. Yet, each successive Bitcoin halving event reveals a nuanced story: progress, though steady, doesn’t mirror the surges seen in the early halving stages.
In the wake of Bitcoin’s first halving, the hash rate growth skyrocketed by an astounding 1,364,787,820%. The second halving, while still impressive, saw a significant reduction to 5,448,118%. The third halving further moderated the growth pace to 8,520%. Currently, the fourth halving projects an approximate growth of 250%.
