Three Countries Control 66 Percent of Bitcoin Mining, Report Says
Three countries control about 66 percent of Bitcoin mining, according to Hashrate Index’s October country estimates, which still put roughly two-thirds of estimated hashrate in three countries.
The comparison does not measure ownership or pool control. Bitcoin’s estimated US mining footprint shrank as Russia’s grew, with little change in top-three country concentration, according to the report.
