Bitcoin Network Hash Rate Mysteriously Flash Crashes by 40%

Bitcoin’s (BTC) network hash rate dipped a record 40% yesterday, Sept. 23, in a sudden shock for the network.

Someone does not pay the electricity bill.

40%? Maybe at blockchain.com
Else it's merely ~13% (95.55E>82.98E) - or somewhere in between.



~ yawn

It is simply slowly growing back.
But according to coin dance it fell to 57 EH/s yesterday

My theory is that some weird little Greta Thunberg lookalike has invented a miner the size of a pea more powerful than several million normal ones and is too autistic to tell anyone about it. It looks like it fell out of her nose ring and rolled down a drain.

Ahhh shit, I saw that young girls speech yesterday. Not my kind of thing, something wrong with that kid. It’s either forced on her by parents or she’s just outrageously odd.

The whole speech is socialist bull shit btw, embarrassing.

She could burn Trupm with her eyes

She's pure Chucky.

I imagine Gaia puked her out of the Earth's core rather like those giant and arsey thingies in Pacific Rim.

This is worth keeping an eye on, because it could become an existential threat to encryption.

Good thing that Bitcoin does not employ encryption, hunh?

make proof of drama the new proof of work and nothing will touch it for millions of years..

The problem is more the old coins stuck in old adress types (P2PK addresses, so unhashed) that haven't moved (e.g. Satoshi's coins).

I'm not too worried about Quantum Computing. It's pretty simple to build a QC to give you an answer to the problem, but thanks to noise you have no way of knowing if it is a right answer.

Kind of like using a PC with bad memory chips.

Scared? More like annoyed by the ugly little noise maker :p

Unused addresses don't have the public keys available. Used or reused addresses have published public keys. Those are the ones more likely to be cracked by quantum computing first.

Multi-sig addresses, even if reused won't be a problem.

Worried is a big word but this will be done one day and cause major turbulance in markets.

relatively old news - but worth remembering that one of Bitmains biggest mining farms is in Ordos in Inner Mongolia.

Multi-sig addresses, even if reused won't be a problem.

P2PK (the oldest of adresses) are vulnerable. P2PKH and P2SH not unless re-eused.

I don’t think that’s how math works.  Happy to be persuaded otherwise.

Yes Boris Johnson is both ugly and short

Isn't Boris the guy that made UK politicians fuck off for 5 weeks? My kind of guy

His actions were ruled unconstitutional 3 hours ago.

Boris's father keeps trying to fuck my aunt. The poor woman also sat next to Boris at dinner once upon a time. The only question he grunted at her was 'where did you go to school?' and when it wasn't fancy enough he ignored her for the rest of the night.

I applied for a job once in the UK, as an adult.

They asked me for my high school transcript.  I told them to GFTO.

I had to look up what such a thing is. Never heard of that before. It must have been a fancy establishment. Mine would read '1 hour of revision on the bus before exams. Most of class time spent playing Mortal Kombat down the seafront arcades.'

My experience of the expensively educated is that most are loud as fuck and rude as fuck. If they're a generation older they're also fucked up as fuck. Their parents paid significant sums to have their children removed from the home at an extremely young age and tortured by multiple strangers. Weird business proposition if you ask me.

The only solution for countries in crisis is in Bitcoin ..
 


Gold does contribute, but it is difficult to transfer from one place to another, many taxes, but the funds that are managed through Bitcoin are much larger and in seconds. It would be the ideal solution for these types of problems.
