Blok Harian

Bitcoin targets one block every 10 minutes, so a 1,440-minute day yields roughly 144 blocks. That target is enforced by the difficulty adjustment: every 2,016 blocks — exactly two weeks at the target pace — the network compares actual elapsed time against expectation and retunes mining difficulty, with any single adjustment capped at a factor of four in either direction.

Difficulty only recalibrates every two weeks, but hashrate has grown almost continuously through Bitcoin's history. New machines coming online mid-epoch push block production ahead of the calibrated difficulty, so average intervals run a bit under 10 minutes and daily counts of 145-155 are routine. The reverse happens when hashrate collapses: after China's mid-2021 mining ban roughly halved network hashpower, blocks slowed sharply until early July 2021 brought a difficulty cut of about 28% — the largest single downward adjustment on record.

Daily block counts here are derived by dividing total daily on-chain transactions by average transactions per block, rather than counting blocks directly; obvious outliers are filtered. Individual days may differ slightly from block-by-block tallies, but the trend is unaffected.

Treat this as a network-health gauge, not a price signal. Deviation from 144 between difficulty adjustments reveals hashrate flowing in or out: persistently high counts mean miners are adding capacity, while sharp drops flag hashrate shocks — policy crackdowns, energy crises, extreme weather curtailment. Cross-reference with hashrate and difficulty charts.
