Turning to the Antminer E3 -
Antminer E3 180mhs for 800watts = 1mhs per 4.44watts
RX Vega 64 43mhs for 134watts = 1mhs per 3.11watts.
RX 580 29.5mhs for 98watts = 1mhs per 3.33watts
RX 1060 24mhs for 90watts = 1mhs per 3.75watts
Yelp, Vitalik wants the Ethereum Networks electricity bill to increase with Antminer E3, which has up to 42% higher electricity usage than the GPU architectures! Does not seem very wise, to increase the underlying electricity consumption of the entire network.
Later this year AMD and Nvidia will be releasing new GPUs sporting and an extra 20%-25% performance and enlarged memory throughput.
RX Vega 64 Refresh 51.6mhs for 134watts = 1mhs per 2.59watts
Then, the difference in efficiency will be 59% between current GPU generation and Antminer E3 for electricity bills.
As a guide, each Antminer E3 will cost the network an extra $200-$210 per annum in higher electricity usage (cost calculated at $0.12kWh) - not exactly what the network needs right now!
What does this have to do with the linked tweet? It was about plagiarism, not the breakdown of mining equipment lol. Use the reply button for such things, not the quote.
The community is discussing what Vitalik said at the Ethereum Core Devs Meeting #36
No, the comment you quoted and then went off topic on contained a link where Vitalik was trolling the Tron team. It's pretty well known they straight copied text from other white papers for use in their own white paper.
That's why you should use the "reply" button instead of "quote" button if you're going to change topic. It makes reading through comments easier.
