“The Bitcoin network is performing several times more calculations than the World’s top 500 supercomputers combined. The miners create incredible hardware solutions in all sizes that range from USB sticks to whole multi-storey buildings. The incredible amount of money flowing into the Bitcoin economy allowed the engineers around the world to create the biggest experiment in distributed computation systems. This couldn’t have been funded any other way. All the knowledge and professional experience gained by building these mining rigs will eventually be put to work for other uses besides creating the most efficient monetary system of the future.”
