Bitcoin energy value \u2014 which seemingly correlates with the coin\u2019s price \u2014 and Bitcoin\u2019s hash rate have just hit all-time highs (ATH), showing that the ecosystem is stronger and more valuable than ever.<\/span><\/p>\n

Determining Bitcoin’s Fair Value<\/span><\/h2>\n

In December, Charles Edwards and the team at investment firm Capriole Investments (@caprioleio) detailed the Bitcoin energy value equivalence.<\/span><\/a> This highlighted the metric’s seeming correlation with Bitcoin\u2019s trading price and volume.<\/span><\/p>\n

The basic premise is that energy, raw Joules alone, can be used to estimate Bitcoin’s fair value<\/span><\/a>; meaning increased energy input increases the fair value of a Bitcoin.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to this model, each coin had a fair value of approximately $11,500 on December 12 \u2014 50% higher than the current trading price at that time.<\/span><\/p>\n

Price and Energy Value: Like Magnets<\/span><\/h2>\n

According to Edwards, Bitcoin\u2019s price and energy value trend towards each other like magnets. And while deviations between the two can and do exist, they have always closed with time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite being mathematically independent to Bitcoin’s trading price and volume, energy value is “connected by the invisible hand of the market,” says Edwards.<\/span><\/p>\n

As per the graph below, the connection is undeniable. Also note that the plunge in energy value in 2013\/14 was largely driven by the transition from GPU\/FPGA to ASIC hardware. <\/span><\/p>\n

By considering energy and supply growth, Edwards found an intrinsic link between Bitcoin’s price<\/span><\/a> and its value.<\/span><\/p>\n

Major takeaways of the energy value formula include:<\/span><\/p>\n

– The health of the mining network is intrinsically linked to the coin’s value.<\/span><\/p>\n

– Increases in electrical energy input will increase the fundamental value of the coin (and vice versa for decreases).<\/span><\/p>\n

Hashrate Skyrockets<\/span><\/h2>\n

Edwards also reiterated the fact that higher hash rates (with unchanged energy efficiency) mean each BTC is worth more.<\/span><\/p>\n

This power required to fuel Bitcoin mining is driven by two parts, the hash rate to solve the SHA-256 algorithm and the energy efficiency of the mining hardware itself. <\/span><\/p>\n

In its early years, the leading cryptocurrency was mined on electrically inefficient CPUs and GPUs. <\/span>But current-era ASICs have energy efficiencies tens of thousands of times greater than the average mining hardware use in 2009. <\/span><\/p>\n

This means that a higher relative portion of the average miner\u2019s electrical bill today is efficiently converted into hashing power.<\/span><\/p>\n

As of January 18, the BTC hash rate hit a new ATH<\/span><\/a> of 126.13 EH\/s, or 126 quintillion hashes per second. To put this in perspective, when the leading cryptocurrency saw its ATH in December 2017, hash rate was 13 EH\/s.<\/span><\/p>\n

Delahunty, born in Lancashire, England, but raised and currently residing in Columbus, Ohio where I attended The Ohio State University studying English and History. After writing in the Fintech and Forex spaces, I began to focus on blockchain and cryptocurrencies \u2014 Bitcoin in particular \u2014 in 2016. Aside from being part of NewsBTC\u2019s journalism team, I am a writer and analyst for Ohio State\u2019s Risk Institute at the Fisher College of Business, and run operations for two local, independent online businesses.","sameAs":["https:\/\/x.com\/tjdelahunty"],"url":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/author\/thomasdelahunty\/"}]}},"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"Bitcoin’s Booming Hash Rate Is Really Bullish for the Market: Here’s Why","url":"http:\/\/wncen.com\/news\/as-bitcoins-energy-value-and-hash-rate-increase-so-does-the-coins-value\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/wncen.com\/news\/as-bitcoins-energy-value-and-hash-rate-increase-so-does-the-coins-value\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/shutterstock_439485319-scaled.jpg?resize=200%2C200","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/shutterstock_439485319-scaled.jpg?fit=2560%2C1707"},"articleSection":"Cryptocurrency Market News","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Thomas Delahunty"}],"creator":["Thomas Delahunty"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"NewsBTC","logo":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32"},"keywords":["bitcoin","fair value","hash rate","value"],"dateCreated":"2020-01-20T18:00:35Z","datePublished":"2020-01-20T18:00:35Z","dateModified":"2024-06-11T13:40:47Z"},"rendered":"<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"headline\":\"Bitcoin’s Booming Hash Rate Is Really Bullish for the Market: Here’s Why\",\"url\":\"http:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/news\\\/as-bitcoins-energy-value-and-hash-rate-increase-so-does-the-coins-value\\\/\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"http:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/news\\\/as-bitcoins-energy-value-and-hash-rate-increase-so-does-the-coins-value\\\/\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2020\\\/01\\\/shutterstock_439485319-scaled.jpg?resize=200%2C200\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2020\\\/01\\\/shutterstock_439485319-scaled.jpg?fit=2560%2C1707\"},\"articleSection\":\"Cryptocurrency Market News\",\"author\":[{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"name\":\"Thomas Delahunty\"}],\"creator\":[\"Thomas Delahunty\"],\"publisher\":{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"name\":\"NewsBTC\",\"logo\":\"https:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2020\\\/06\\\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32\"},\"keywords\":[\"bitcoin\",\"fair value\",\"hash rate\",\"value\"],\"dateCreated\":\"2020-01-20T18:00:35Z\",\"datePublished\":\"2020-01-20T18:00:35Z\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-06-11T13:40:47Z\"}<\/script>","tracker_url":"https:\/\/cdn.parsely.com\/keys\/wncen.com\/p.js"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/shutterstock_439485319-scaled.jpg?fit=2560%2C1707","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/411713"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/521"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=411713"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/411713\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/409470"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=411713"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=411713"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=411713"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
