In terms of industry, foreign media reported that Bitcoin trading has become active again this year. As the price rises, the difficulty of Bitcoin mining is also rising rapidly.

According to the system design, the difficulty of Bitcoin mining will be adjusted according to the time required for the mined Bitcoin blocks. Data shows that the difficulty of Bitcoin mining has increased by 41.9% in the past month.

The reason is that as the hash rate of mining machines improves, the time to mine a block is reduced. BitFury, a Bitcoin mining chip manufacturer, invested $100 million to build a 100MW mining data center. Currently, the hash rate of BitFury alone accounts for 28% of the entire network.

At 13:03 Beijing time on December 23, Bitcoin/USD was 438.42, Bitcoin/Euro was 398.98, and Bitcoin/RMB was 2918.60.
