最新报道:Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson estimates Satoshi Nakamoto spent around $3,700 to mine the first 1.1 million Bitcoin, based on 2009 electricity costs and early mining difficulty. He suggests Satoshi likely used standard CPUs before ASICs existed, making mining far cheaper than today's energy-intensive operations. Hoskinson also speculates Satoshi may have abandoned the project due to legal concerns or personal reasons, leaving the untouched Bitcoin stash. The analysis offers insights into Bitcoin's early days when mining was accessible to individuals with basic hardware.
