Echoes of 2013: Bitcoin Mining Concentration Reaches Decade-High Levels
In the past 72 hours, Antpool has dominated 26.48% of Bitcoin’s overall hashrate, closely followed by Foundry USA at 24.95%. Together, these two mining pools wield 51.43% of the prevailing 502 exahash per second (EH/s) total hashrate. This level of concentration in bitcoin mining pools has been unprecedented since 2013, reminiscent of the era when Ghash and Btc Guild were the leading forces in hashrate dominance.
