As reported by U.Today, the hashrate dropped by a staggering 44 percent from its 2020 high on March 26.
This coincided with the second-largest negative adjustment in history (nearly 16 percent), which was meant to provide some relief for struggling miners stifled by Bitcoin’s March price crash.

While the BTC price remains flat at current levels, the coin’s hashrate is actually up nine percent.
