RE: Bitcoin Mining Impact on environment: Data Story

in #bitcoin7 years ago (edited)

The good thing is you can NOW send a transaction for less than 160 satoshis/byte --- compare this to only a few weeks ago when we were paying 500 satoshis/byte. Mind you even @ 12.5 BTC per 10 minutes gives the Bitcoin network lots of incentive to add more miners. I guess this hash rate will continue to grow.

Sort:  

Yeah its true that if we guess bitcoin as a country and other currencies together it maybe come on 1st rank in electricity consumption in future.
