    Sure! Bitcoin is widely known for having the highest mining difficulty among all cryptocurrencies. Due to its popularity and the large number of miners competing for rewards, the Bitcoin network adjusts its difficulty every 2016 blocks to ensure that new blocks are added to the blockchain approximately every 10 minutes. This makes it extremely challenging for individual miners to mine Bitcoin without specialized hardware and a significant investment in electricity costs.

    Well, if you're looking for a cryptocurrency with high mining difficulty, Ethereum is another popular choice. Ethereum's mining difficulty has been steadily increasing over the years, especially after the introduction of Ethereum 2.0. The transition to a proof-of-stake consensus mechanism will eventually make mining obsolete, but until then, Ethereum mining remains a competitive and resource-intensive process.
