Bitcoin mining difficulty falls 10 percent in 11th-largest downward adjustment

Bitcoin mining difficulty fell 10.09 percent, Cointelegraph reported on June 15 local time. It marked the second-largest downward adjustment this year. Galaxy Research said the decline was the second-biggest of 2026 and about 20 percent below a peak in November last year. The drop was linked to lower hashrate as bitcoin prices fell about 15 percent in June, squeezing miner margins and pushing some hashrate off the network.
