I cannot even recollect in my memory a person who is not addicted to gadgets. It's a pity, of course. Yet, that's true. Remembering a couple having a dinner in an expensive restaurant. They have been sitting in front of each other for more than 2 hours and everything they said, was: "Thank you" and "Love you". Rest of the time they've been playing a game in their cells. Quite sad  |

I think whales do it. To disrupt the market, panikists sell, and then whales buy at a lower price. I will not sell.
I think, yes, the reason is to disrupt the market indeed. I will not sell either. |

Beatles!
Indeed, the Beatles are one of the best for ages! Yet I must confess, I randomly love lots of bands from various music directions. I'm in love with Queen and Metallica and I am a fan of Nirvana. Roxette and Backstreet boys are amonst my favorities as well  |

What is/are your favorite quote/s in life? I'd rather say, this is not a quote, but a slogan. "Just Do It!" (C) Nike. Remembering the movie "What women want" - this was just awesome!  |

I'm seriously underweight right now at the age of 21. I'm unable to increase my diet, and still wish to get 1-2 inches increase in height and gain more weight.
Any tips?
Well, envy you, serously! I am doing wichever possible in order to loose weight. Yet the best decision, I guess, is to eat meat and go in for sports to gain muscles and not to become fat. |

- Snip -
 you both made me laugh and understand a bit more... thanks But you don't need to say so many times that I don't know what I'm talking about, because I really don't. So I need to ask the stupid questions the best way I know, it's part of the learning process  Getting back to the main question, If I didn't miss anything in the posts its not clear yet the answer to this question: With current available technology (Considering ASICs and Current Quantum Computing), whats the max Bitcoin Private keys mankind is able to generate per second with ONE central unit of processing working at 100%? Is there some mathematical formula to calculate this? |

-snip- 1. The average CPU can do 1-10 MILLION hashes per second. So an ASIC is only a million times better. But anyway you cannot compare a general purpose CPU to an ASIC. It is still same generation hardware. Computers did not get a million times better in 6 years. 2. A hashing ASIC cannot do private key checks. 3. I don't think you understood the text around the picture 4. Keep calm and don't worry about brute force. 5. If it were possible it would already be done. It takes a smart guy to make an ASIC and they all know a private key brute force is not worth the effort 1. So the average CPU is able to generate 1-10 MILLION Mining hashes per second, is this the same rate for Private Key generations? 2. Good. 3. Maybe not. 4. I don't like to keep calm. 5. Are you aware that in the 80s the cyber gurus at the time got to the conclusion that it wouldn't be possible to generate a crypto based money? Look what came up 30 years later... Read about Cypherpunks... So don't expect that the unthinkable won't happen one day. |
