Bitcoin's hashrate just dipped below 1 zetahash per second—the first time in four months—as miners are pulling computing power away from block production and directing it toward AI workloads where margins look better. Recent data from Hashrate Index shows this shift accelerating, painting a picture of how quickly miners respond when profitable opportunities emerge elsewhere in the digital economy.

All the money in the mining circle has been absorbed by AI, and BTC hash rate has dropped to a four-month low. This business is becoming more and more competitive.

Mining hash power is shifting to AI. Is BTC really going to be marginalized now?

Are miners really that honest? As long as there's money to be made, they turn around and invest in AI. What does it mean that Bitcoin's hash rate has fallen below 1ZH...
