In the ethereum pools, total hashes are about 10-20 GH/s. However in the bitcoin pools it's more than many TH/s. For example if I have Antminer S7(4860 GH/s), may I use these hashes in the ethereum pools? Ethereum pools hashes are too low. Why?

No way. Bitcoin is SHA-256, Ethereum is NOT.

Not possible.  Different proof-of-work algorithm.  Bitcoin is SHA-256 and ETH is Ethash (some kind of hybrid algo).  Bitcoin miners are designed to "mine" SHA-256 based coins.
You're seeing lower hashrate on ETH pools because they don't use specialized ASICs and only uses GPU to mine.

Trusted an exchange that climbed to the top 3 in just under 2 years with your money? you are fucking stupid.

Thank you, now I understand why pool hashes too low.

to be honest I'm amazed  you even see any hashing without a lot of rejects that counter it ( I'm not making fun or being rude either) ,


 in short no hash and no reward at all tiring it .

if you decide to, you can CPU mine ETH, and not just GPU mine ,  just have to look up how to  . Smiley .but do like they all say only do sha256 type coins with S9's or antminers  ): .
