Bitcoin miners back hash rate derivative DeFi project on BSC
Standard Hashrate is launching TAU, an algorithmic asset protocol backed by Bitcoin hash rate. A group of Bitcoin (BTC) mining companies have put their weight behind Standard Hashrate and its recently launched TAU Protocol, a synthetic asset platform using hashrate derivatives for its peg mechanism.Announced on Friday, the TAU project aims to create algorithmic versions of Bitcoin and other Proof-of-Work assets through a revisited rebase mechanism. The basic concept is similar to simple rebase coins, including the synthetic Bitcoin offered by Badger. The TAU protocol, however, adds a....

Over the years, there have been various sentiments regarding the “death of bitcoin,” but the digital asset continues to prove doubters wrong. This time around, bitcoin has seen a significant rebound in its hash rate that suggests more miners are coming back online. This increase in hash rate carries implications for the miners but shows […]
The Dogecoin hash rate has actually seen good growth in the year 2022. At the end of 2021, it sat around 371 terahashes per second (TH/s) and by May had touched as high as 540 TH/s. There wasn’t much increase from there though until the Ethereum Merge happened back in September. Since then, Dogecoin has benefitted from the migration of ETH miners to other networks and its hash rate has touched a new 7-month high due to this. Dogecoin Hash Rate Balloons Earlier in the week, the Dogecoin hash rate had recorded one of its highest spikes ever. This took place on Tuesday when the mining hash....
Hash rate plays a vital role in every Proof-of-Work (PoW) blockchain. It measures the computational drive for all transaction verification and block additions to the network. Hence, the Bitcoin hash rate represents the number of people involved in BTC mining. As the number of miners increases, the hash rate will also increase. This results in maintaining the security and stability of the Bitcoin ecosystem. Many investors will consider hash rates before engaging in any project. Before now, the BTC price and hash rate have maintained a direct proportionality relation. This is because there....
Soaring hash rate, high electricity costs and BTC price hovering under $20,000 for months is complicating matters for Bitcoin miners. October witnessed a surge in Bitcoin’s (BTC) hash rate which is pushing the metric to a new high of 245 Exahashes per second. These changes led to a sharp decrease in the hash price, resulting in a drop in the profit margins for BTC miners reaching a low of $66.8 USD/PH (per one quadrillion hashes per second) on Oct. 24, 2022.According to Luxor Technologies, “hashprice” is the revenue BTC miners earn per unit of hash rate, which is the total computational....
The network hash rate jumped 31.69% — from 188.40 EH/s to 248.11 EH/s — in just one day, further ensuring resilience against attacks on the Bitcoin network. The Bitcoin (BTC) network has recorded a new hash rate all-time high of 248.11M TH/s as of Feb. 12, 2022, further securing the decentralized ecosystem through a growing network of global BTC miners. The hash rate correlates to the computing power required by a miner’s computer equipment to confirm a transaction. The recent spike in BTC’s network hash rate ensures further security against attacks by deterring bad actors from confirming....
