Wu said learned that according to CloverPool data, the Bitcoin network underwent a mining difficulty adjustment on March 21, 2026 (block height 941472). The mining difficulty was significantly reduced by 7.76% to 133.79 T, marking the second largest decline so far in 2026. Data shows that the average network hash rate during this adjustment cycle was approximately 760.10 EH/s, with an average block time of 12 minutes 36 seconds. Analysis indicates that the block time was significantly higher than the 10-minute benchmark target, reflecting the decline or loss of some miners' computing power in the previous cycle, which triggered this substantial mining difficulty adjustment mechanism.
