The Bitcoin hashrate, a key metric representing the net processing power of the Bitcoin network, reached a new all-time-high earlier on Tuesday.
At a seven-day average of 123.4 EH/s, this new milestone signifies that miners are pledging more power than ever to secure the network. Despite encouraging network fundamentals, however, the BTC/USD pair has failed to instill enough confidence in the bulls to break out above resistance at $9,300.
