尽管矿工利润减少，比特币（BTC）挖矿难度仍创历史新高（ATH）

在过去 24 小时内，比特币挖矿难度增加了 3.04%，创下历史新高（ATH）。比特币挖矿难度的上升是在大幅下降的情况下进行的

Bitcoin mining difficulty hit an all-time high (ATH) on Monday amid a seven-day rise in the metric and a sizable reduction in miners’ profits.

周一，比特币挖矿难度创下历史新高（ATH），该指标连续 7 天上涨，矿工利润大幅下降。

The difficulty rose by 3.04% in the last 24 hours to reach 92.67 trillion, according to CoinWarz. It was adjusted at block height 860,898.

根据 CoinWarz 的数据，过去 24 小时内难度上升了 3.04%，达到 92.67 万亿。调整为区块高度860,898。

The difficulty adjustment aims to ensure that a new block is discovered every 10 minutes on average, irrespective of the number of miners actively participating.

难度调整的目的是确保平均每 10 分钟发现一个新区块，无论积极参与的矿工数量有多少。

Bitcoin mining difficulty determines the level of effort required to mine the next block. It is adjusted every 2,016 blocks, roughly every two weeks.

比特币挖掘难度决定了挖掘下一个区块所需的努力程度。每 2,016 个区块调整一次，大约每两周调整一次。

The latest increase comes as the Bitcoin hash rate also set a new seven-day moving average ATH of 693.84 EH/s on Sunday.

最新的增长是在比特币哈希率周日创下新的 7 天移动平均 ATH 为 693.84 EH/s 之际发生的。

Miners have collectively ramped up their hash rate despite experiencing a difficult time following the Bitcoin halving event in April.

尽管在四月份比特币减半事件之后经历了一段困难时期，但矿工们仍然集体提高了算力。

During the event, miner rewards were slashed from 6.25 BTC to 3.125 BTC. However, seven-day moving averages of the hash rate began to recover.

活动期间，矿工奖励从 6.25 BTC 大幅削减至 3.125 BTC。然而，哈希率的 7 天移动平均线开始恢复。

After bottoming out at 550.25 EH/s on June 28, surviving miners have upgraded their mining rigs and capacity, contributing to the total hash rate.

在 6 月 28 日触底于 550.25 EH/s 后，幸存的矿工升级了采矿设备和容量，为总算力做出了贡献。

Meanwhile, Bitcoin mining was less profitable in August than in July, according to a research report by investment bank Jefferies.

与此同时，投资银行 Jefferies 的一份研究报告显示，8 月份比特币挖矿的利润低于 7 月份。

The report noted that the average Bitcoin price fell over 4%, while the average network hash rate rose about 2.7% during the period.

报告指出，比特币平均价格下跌超过 4%，而平均网络哈希率在此期间上涨约 2.7%。

As a result, the miner's average daily revenue per exahash dropped by 11.8% from the previous month.

受此影响，该矿商每Exahash的日均收益较上月下降了11.8%。

In its last report, investment banking giant JPMorgan stated that mining profitability fell to all-time lows in the first two weeks of August.

投行巨头摩根大通在最新报告中表示，8 月前两周矿业盈利能力跌至历史最低点。

Jefferies analysts Jonathan Petersen and Joe Dickstein said that September could be another difficult month for the Bitcoin miners.

杰富瑞 (Jefferies) 分析师乔纳森·彼得森 (Jonathan Petersen) 和乔·迪克斯坦 (Joe Dickstein) 表示，9 月对于比特币矿商来说可能又是一个艰难的月份。

Their prediction is based on the觀察Bitcoin’s price, which is currently stagnant below $60,000, and the surge in the network hash rate.

他们的预测是基于观察比特币的价格（目前停滞在 60,000 美元以下）以及网络哈希率的飙升。

However, there is a long-held notion that Bitcoin’s price directly correlates with mining difficulty, which could indicate a bullish momentum in the network.

然而，人们长期以来一直认为比特币的价格与挖矿难度直接相关，这可能表明网络的看涨势头。

Moreover, a higher hash rate indicates a more secure network, which could further boost Bitcoin’s price.

此外，更高的哈希率表明网络更安全，这可能会进一步推高比特币的价格。

At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading for $57,600, up by 0.7% in the past 24 hours.

截至撰写本文时，比特币交易价格为 57,600 美元，在过去 24 小时内上涨了 0.7%。
