Bitcoin Mining | What does Ksol/s and Mgps mean? What is the difference between EH/S, TH/S, MH/S, etc.?

If you are learning about Bitcoin mining, this article is for you; if you are confused by the various computing power units of Bitcoin mining machines, the following content will be very helpful to you.

Even newcomers to the mining industry know that Bitcoin mining machines always say X T or X TH/S. However, not all mining machines have a computing power unit of T or TH/S, only most of them do.

The unit of Bitcoin's computing power is not always TH/S. For example, when it comes to the computing power of the entire Bitcoin network, it is always expressed in E or EH/S.

In the past few years, the computing power of mining machines has always been expressed in M ​​(MH/S) and G (GH/S). What is the relationship between these units and T? For example, how many M or G does 1T represent?

Main hashing units

H/S=hashes/second, which means how many hashes can be calculated per second.

In the past ten years since the birth of Bitcoin, the computing power of mining machines has developed very rapidly. Now, mining machines that use GH/S to express computing power have long since withdrawn from the stage of history (for Bitcoin).

Take the Antminer as an example. When the Antminer S1 was launched, the computing power was only 180G. Now the Antminer S17 has a computing power of 56T, or 56,000G, which is more than 300 times that of the S1. Not to mention the Shemma M20S, which has a computing power of 68T.

If we continue to move forward, one day we may be able to break through the PH/S computing power, which is more than 1000T.

The computing power unit of the Equihash algorithm mining machine

Sol/s : sol/s=solutions/second, which means how many answers can be found per second. This is essentially the same as H/S.

Ksol/s : 1Ksol/s=1000 sol/s

Msol/s : 1Msol/s=1000Ksol/s=1000000 sol/s

There are also G , T , P , E (initial letters).

The conversion is the same as the mainstream computing power units above.

This algorithm is generally used by anonymous coins, such as ZCASH and BEAM.

The computing power of the Antminer Z11 is 135 KSol/s, and that of the Antminer Z9 is 40.8 KSol/s.

gps : It is the abbreviation of graph, sometimes written as G.

Kgps : 1Kgps=1000 gps

Mgps : 1Mgps=1000Kgps=1000000gps

There are also G , T , P , E (initial letters).

This is an algorithm dedicated to Grin coin. The specific conversion is the same as the computing power unit above.

Now you understand, the above is the conversion method of mining machine computing power. Save it quickly and you can check and compare it at any time.
