Bitcoin's difficulty adjustment is a feature that serves as a self-correcting mechanism to maintain the stability of the network. Every 2016 blocks, or roughly every two weeks, the difficulty adjusts based on how fast previous blocks were mined.

If it was faster than 10 minutes per block, meaning more miners on board making Bitcoin mining get more difficult and vice versa.The purpose of this is to keep Bitcoin's block time consistent so both large and small miners can continue to mine profitably while ensuring the security and integrity of the network.
