最新报道:Peter Thiel's monopoly-building advice raises the question: Could a Bitcoin miner with a 10x technological advantage become a monopolist? If "BitMonopoly" deployed such hardware, it would initially dominate block production, winning most of the 3.125 BTC block rewards plus fees. After Bitcoin's difficulty adjustments—capped at 4x every two weeks—only BitMonopoly could mine profitably, capturing 100% of market share and annual revenue of $18.9 billion at current Bitcoin prices. However, this capped upside, limited by Bitcoin's protocol and halvings, reduces incentives compared to uncapped corporate monopolies like NVIDIA or Apple, making Bitcoin mining less attractive for monopolistic ambitions.
