Network performance is great !
how much electricity are ETN using compare to BTC? This is an interesting question due to environmental profile
The X3 draws 3.5 times less electricity than the S9. But is also more expensive.
But people are already developing cleaner methods for creating the needed electricity.
There are approximately 22 000 X3s running on the network (6,6Gh / 300Kh) and they consume 600W (at 300Kh).
There are approximately 3 856 428 S9 on the bitcoin network (54Eh / 14Th) and they consume 1350W.
You can do the math
THX for the answers. The environment is a very important question and today a political party in Norway wants to remove the tax cuts for BTC mining companies they have in norway, due to EL consumption. In Norway we have 99.9% hydro electricity. I believe this is about to be more in focus around the world in the years to come.
You’re totaly right ; here in Québec we also run mostly on hydroelectricity and Hydro Québec (the state company and only provider) decided to impose « punishing » rates to mining farms to discourage them. There was a growing demand in our province due to cheap electricity and cold climate. I’m sure we’ll see more of these situation around the globe.
