According to @simplykashif, Reuters reports Hashrate Index data showing China has returned to No. 3 globally in Bitcoin (BTC) mining with approximately a 14% hashrate share, per Reuters and Hashrate Index. Reuters adds that individuals and companies in China have resumed mining primarily due to cheaper electricity in certain provinces, per Reuters. For traders, the reported increase in China’s share is a timely input for tracking BTC network hashrate and difficulty that shape miner revenue per hash, per Hashrate Index and Reuters.

According to BitMEX Research, there is a suggestion for Hashrate Index to consider updating their mining pool page for improved information dissemination and accuracy. This recommendation was made in a tweet on March 12, 2025, indicating the importance of keeping mining pool data current for traders and miners alike.
