Bitcoin’s hashrate hit beast mode this week, flexing a record-smashing 1,109 exahash per second (EH/s) as the network cranked its computational biceps harder than ever. Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s hashrate fireworks are lighting up merge mined neighbors too, with Namecoin, Rootstock, and Fractal Bitcoin all hitching a ride on the rocket and scoring monster boosts of their own.
