Out of the 4,557 blocks mined since Feb. 5, 2023, Antpool discovered 815 blocks, accounting for 17.88% of the global hashrate in a month’s time. Foundry and Antpool were followed by F2Pool , Binance Pool , and Viabtc .spot prices as the price has dropped more than 8% over the past two weeks.

BitcoinData shows that network fees equate to 2.1% of a block reward at the time of writing. Despite the challenges, many bitcoin mining pools have remained strong and contributed to an increase in the global hashrate.
