A good hash rate is one that keeps a cryptocurrency network secure . Higher hash rates mean more computing power would be needed to take control of a network. Therefore, a good hash rate is a high hash rate. With SoFi Invest®, investing in crypto is simple, secure, and easy to get started with as little as $10.

As of Friday, March 25, 2022, it would take 30.0 days to mine 1 Ethereum at the current Ethereum difficulty level along with the mining hashrate and block reward; a Ethereum mining hashrate of 2,500.00 MH/s consuming 1,200.00 watts of power at $0.10 per kWh, and a block reward of 2 ETH.

“The Bitcoin network today has a hash rate of approximately 190 EH/s , so all the miners across the network are calculating the output of the SHA-256 cryptographic hash function approximately 190 quintillion times per second on average.”

A higher hashrate means more computing power is required to verify and add transactions to that cryptocurrency’s blockchain . This makes that cryptocurrency more secure because it would take more miners—and cost more in energy and time—to take over the network.
