The Ethereum hash ratehash rate has set a new record of 250 terahashes per second, according to data from Glassnode. The rate has also jumped by 80% since the beginning of the year.
The hash rates measure the processing power of a blockchain. The Ethereum hash rate measures the sum of total miners currently active on the network, and, as decentralized finance (DeFi) continues to grow, the Ethereum network’s hash rate is breaking record highs.
“Ethereum miners have pushed the hash rate to a new record in high in the wake of the DeFi hype and surging fees,” Glassnode tweeted.
🚨 #Ethereum hash rate hits an ATH.
Ethereum miners have pushed the hash rate to a new record high in the wake of the #DeFi hype and surging fees.
It crossed 250T/s and is now up 80% since the beginning of the year.

According to the data, the Ethereum hash rate’s previous high was approximately 246 terahashes per second, hitting this figure on August 9, 2018. But now, the has rate has broken the 250 mark.
It has been a good year for the Ethereum hash rate. Starting the year at about 144 terahashes per second, the 200 terahashes per second mark was broken in August of this year, before steadily rising to these unprecedented heights.
Much of this success is credited to the rising success of the DeFi industry. “The Ethereum network is going from strength to strength, with the recent increase of DeFi related activity, network usage is at all-time highs,” said Charles Storry, co-founder of PhutureDAO.
The People’s Bank of China (PBoC) has processed over three million transactions—worth 1.1 billion yuan ($162 million) as part of its trial of the DCEP (Digital Currency, Electronic Payment), its pilot for a central bank digital currency (CBDC). Speaking at virtual conference Sibos 2020 on Monday, the PBoC’s deputy governor Fan Yi Fei noted that, “An aggregate of 113,300 personal digital wallets and 8,859 corporate digital wallets have been opened […] up until late August.” Join Fan Yi Fei, Depu...
This is also good news for the security of the network. A 51% attack on a blockchain is when a group of miners take over the network and can censor transactions. But to do this, they have to control more than half the hash rate. The higher the hash rate—the safer the network is.
Altcoin Hyperliquid was recently down more than 6% over the past 24 hours, the poorest performer among the 100 leading cryptocurrencies by trading volume in Thursday trading. HYPE fell below $36 at one point, its lowest level in 10 days, and well off its all-time high of $45.59 set just three days ago, according to crypto data provider CoinGecko. The token of the Hyperliquid decentralized exchange remains up more than 40% over the past 30 days, a result at least partly of its dominant position...
When most healthcare companies discuss digital transformation, they typically mean electronic medical records or telemedicine platforms. But for Prenetics Global Limited, a publicly-traded health sciences firm, going digital meant something entirely next level: a $20 million Bitcoin treasury strategy that adds its name to a growing list of companies adopting a Bitcoin acquisition strategy. The Nasdaq-listed genomics and digital health company disclosed Wednesday that it has acquired 187.42 BTC...
A startup has raised $6 million in a seed round to protect Bitcoin from quantum computing. Project 11, which focuses on quantum computing's hypothetical threat to the leading crypto network, announced the raise Thursday, which was co-led by Variant and Quantonation, and included participation from venture capital firms Castle Island Ventures, Nebular, and Formation. The firm said that quantum computing is a threat to Bitcoin so "every wallet, every account holder, every smart contract key—all...
