is 89 EH/s. So that is 89 x 10¹⁸ hashes a second. And we arrive at the global energy consumption rate of 5.56 x 10¹⁶ watts, or 5.56x10¹⁰ gigawatts(GW). For reference [4], a mid-size nuclear power plant generates approximately 1 GW of energy. =================================== Sources: [1]: Bitcoin
