That site says that Bitcoin computers use more electricity that the nation of Poland? Do you trust that estimate?
How about that one Bitcoin transaction uses as much electricity as 608K VISA Transactions? That's almost 2/3 of a million!
It seems highly credible, but I need to hear what others think about it.
Lastly, does it show how many PC's are used in its calculations? Is there any way to get an estimate of how many GPU's are mining Bitcoin?
Are they still using GPU's?
Thanks

Can you find a general number of GPU's that are running today, mining Bitcoin?
I want specifically Bitcoin…
This chart is extensive, but I can not find that value, the number of machines…

I had no idea I have been looking so long for that rough estimate. I once was told about 2 Billion GPU's.
As far as what I am looking for, today, is the number use on Digiconomist.net.
They are projecting power consumption, so, I would assume, they have some number in there for GPU's
I am also be sure,, if an Expert were to give me a range, it would be more accurate that one I could come up with.
So, the following is fine format:
1.4 Billion to 2.2 Billion.
with a big Maybe.
I do not have any idea, so these number are for demo purposes only.
Thanks.
@skullnobrains “it is actually a lot more than poland's, though. ”
Wow! do you say this because Digiconomist.net has a conservative view? They upped the beating the Ukraine a couple weeks ago, to beating Poland.
“the mining centers used to be the first datacenters worldwide that could be spotted from meteorologic or nasa satellites.”
Are Bitcoin mining datacenters still visible from space?
I assume this related to heat release, right?

>> not to mention the cost of engineering and recycling the machines, buildings, etc
Does this mean they underestimate the cost to dispose of the old PC's?
