Hello world, happy Monday!

TLDR

A green bag for this week's update: Bitcoin up, hashrate up, difficulty unchanged, fees down; hashprice is up.

Over the past week, miners collected a total of ~3,166 BTC in block rewards, equivalent to ~$226 million. Transaction fees constituted 0.58% of block rewards totalling 16 BTC, equivalent to ~$1.2 million.

Despite a 1.05% drop in USD hashprice, network conditions improved this week. Hashrate rose 4.73% to a 7-day average of 930 EH/s, and miner rewards jumped 6.51% to 3,251 BTC amid rising fee income. Network difficulty eased slightly (−0.45%), while hardware pricing held steady with the S21XP at $25.70/TH. — Hashrate Index Weekly Mining Roundup | April 13, 2026
