BitcoinBitcoin Sustainable Energy Mix Tops 58% as Network Becomes Greener04 / 26 / 2022बिटकॉइन एथेरियम समाचार A recent survey report by the Bitcoin Mining Council (BMC), a voluntary global group of bitcoin miners who are committed to the network and its core principles, has revealed that Bitcoin mining is becoming more energy-efficient. Bitcoin Mining Becomes More Energy-Efficient The BMC‘s Q1 2022 Bitcoin Mining Data Review published on Monday pointed out that bitcoin mining operations accounted for an insignificant amount of global energy, about 16bps in the first quarter of 2022. It also generated negligible carbon emissions, 8bps, which represents a meager 0.085% of the world’s carbon production. The survey data was collected from 50% of the global Bitcoin network, which represents 100.9 exahash (EH), with participants currently utilizing a rather high sustainable power mix, sitting at 64.6%. Per this data, the global bitcoin mining industry‘s sustainable electricity mix is presently at 58.4%, having recorded a 59% increase year-on-year (YoY). This figure makes the BTC mining industry one of the world’s most sustainable industries. Additionally, the Bitcoin Networks efficiency grew by 63% year-on-year, from 12.6 EH per gigawatt (GW) in Q1 2021 to 20.5 EH per GW in Q1 2022. This is a strong indication that the
