No, not mad. There used to be lot's of intelligent conversation here, but now it's just littered with your FUD. You might as well have your own thread.

He's trying WAY too hard to be taken seriously. Ignored.

+1 for Vycid starting his own thread....

By the way networks probably passed 1petahash. Celebration time!

Celebrates thats worthy of a fb post
An Asicminer Blade is 10GH, so 1 PH is 100,000 of these.

Lets imagine we are filling up One Wilshire, a famous 30 story data center in Los Angeles. Lets say there is enough power and cooling, and we are really packing our mining equipment in.

Maybe thirty above-described rooms per story. Not every story is data center there are lawyers and acountants who rent there too but ignore that. So, 900 possible rooms, and 30 rooms per story. 37.8 TH/story. 1.1 PH/building.

We have our answer. The bitcoin mining network run on Gen 1 hardware consists of about one One Wilshire-sized data center filled with Blades. Somewhat confirmatory of our ballpark estimate, One Wilshire sold for 437.5 million dollars last month.

If we had this running on gen 2 hardware, one petahash would be 3 stories and the entire building would be 10 petahashes.

Either way, our building sized mine would consume 21 megawatts of power, with one third for hashing and two thirds for cooling.

And that is what one petahash (or ten petahashes of gen 2) looks like.
