Maybe a trend
or a retool from s21s to s21xps
1 s21 = 200th
10 s21 = 2ph
100 s21 = 20ph
1000 s21 = 200ph
10000 s21 = 2eh
100000 s21 = 20eh
so it is 200,000 s21 units off line
or 300,000 s19xp units off line
either way power used drops a lot
about 710,000 kwatts an hour
or 710 megawatts an hour
retool of new gear could be happening
remember weather is warming up in the USA thus mining tends to slow a bit.
We do have a thread for this the 2025 difficulty thread.

Well, yes I thought it might be a large farm switching off somewhere to update or as you say re-tool. I guess if we see it spike back up that'll be some evidence of it but 40EH is a heck of a drop.
Do farms really contain 200,000 units? That in itself is wild. 710MW is about half a nuclear reactors worth.
In terms of power if you think of the total available hashrate it peaked at 0.907 ZetaHash. Its almost an incomprehensible amount of power usage even if it were averaged out.
I'm sure if it peaks again it'll break the ZetaHash barrier.
Mind blowing numbers...
