Follow on Google News |  Fifth Edition of CryptoSuper500 List Shows Annual Economic Value Hits New HighCryptocurrencies have reached Exascale class supercomputing, with a hash rate of around 115 ExaHashes per second just for Bitcoin
By: OrionX The report highlights the rapidly growing hashrate among the top six coins mined with Proof of Work consensus algorithms. In crypto mining, hashes are the metric that parallels floating point operations (flops) in the supercomputing world. Cryptocurrencies have reached Exascale class supercomputing, with a hash rate of around 115 ExaHashes per second just for Bitcoin. The Bitcoin hash rate is roughly flat since the last Bitcoin halving in May, but due to the strong Bitcoin price rise, the Annual Economic Value (AEV) has grown significantly. AEV of cryptocurrencies that rely on proof of work mining has hit a new high of around $9 billion, despite the Bitcoin Halving of block reward in May (https://www.enterpriseai.news/ "Bitcoin is not going away. Each Bitcoin is worth as much as 8 ounces of gold, and Bitcoin's market cap at $300 Billion is greater than all but 18 publicly traded companies. There are over 7,500 cryptocurrencies to date, 19 are unicorn-sized, and central banks are starting to roll out their own digital currencies," The annual economic value (AEV) of the top 5 pools in the current list compared to the last list, published in June 2020, are as follows: • F2Pool, a global pool with projected AEV of $1.058 billion compared to $832 million in June 2020 • SparkPool in China with an AEV of $840 million compared to $370 million • Poolin in the US and China with an AEV of $736 million compared to $614 million • BTCdotcom, a global pool with an AEV of $683 million compared to $442 million • Ethermine in the US with an AEV of $654 million compared to $291 million The six coins mined with Proof of Work consensus algorithms which were included in this analysis are: • Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Zcash, Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin SV The full list with additional explanation is available in a slide presentation at OrionX.net/research (http://orionx.net/ "Until now, we have been in the start-up phase of Bitcoin, when its behavior was designed to cultivate the market, attract participants, and keep them with sticky benefits," said Shahin Khan, Founding Partner and Analyst at OrionX. "Everything about it will gradually change towards a less volatile environment as the impact of newly mined Bitcoins coins on existing supply of Bitcoins decreases, and the use of Bitcoin as primarily a store of value and as growing medium of exchange matures."
