The power consumption of digital currency mining is not “heinous”. The new peak of bitcoin price may come within a year

In 2021, “carbon neutrality” will become China’s national strategy, but we know that computing power is the cornerstone of the blockchain world. In order to improve computing power, we need to consume more energy. Is there a way to increase computing power while reducing power consumption? Then can the amplitude be reduced? In the process of “carbon neutrality” and “contradiction” in the future development of the computer industry, how to solve the problems of energy cost, efficiency and energy sustainability?

Sai saire technology founder Li Risheng said that after the development of human society, the progress of science and technology, the evolution from a carbon-based world to a silicon-based world, and people’s attention to energy efficiency, from oil and natural gas to electronic energy efficiency, all The development of the silicon-based world is rooted in computing. The core cost of calculation is chip cost and energy cost. From a longer perspective, energy costs actually account for a greater proportion. From a physical point of view, logically speaking, calculation can be understood as an activity of reducing entropy. In order to convert disordered data into ordered data, energy needs to be input. The calculation requirements are related to the number and number of pairs of chips.

Waste or development? Only time knows.
