Bitcoin Arithmetic – Filling in the Blanks: Mining Difficulty
Mining is like a puzzle. If too many friends solve it too quickly, the puzzle becomes harder. If it’s taking too long, the puzzle becomes easier. This is called mining difficulty. It keeps the notebook’s rhythm steady, so blocks come roughly every ten minutes, no matter how many miners join the game. Difficulty protects the network from getting too fast or too slow.
