RE: Ever wonder how much electricity one Bitcoin transaction uses?

in #bitcoin7 years ago

That is amazing. I never realized that, actually, I never considered the amount of power required. That might contribute to the long wait times for transactions to be processed.

Alot of the newer cryptos, such as steem, takes a only couple of seconds to process. Those, I assume, would use just a fraction of the power.
