BTC: Fixed-Rating Equivalent Device Count - S23 Hyd 580 TH/s

Bitcoin Fixed-Rating Equivalent Device Count - S23 Hyd 580 TH/s was 1,703,935.3 devices on 7 Nov 2026 (latest daily value).

How many Antminer S23 Hyd machines (580 TH/s each) it would take to match Bitcoin's hash rate each day.

Why use it. It puts the size of the network in terms of a familiar machine. How to read it. Higher means a bigger network. It is a what-if count, not the number of machines actually running.

Calculation. Exact definition: How many S23 Hyd devices at a nominal 580 TH/s would together match each UTC day's estimated network hash rate. Higher values mean more estimated network work. This is a fractional scenario count, not an inventory or observed device fleet, assuming the nominal rating at 100% uptime; ratings vary with temperature, operating mode and device tolerance, which is not modeled. Network EH/s is a statistical estimate, not measured physical capacity. Earlier history applies the fixed rating retrospectively, even before the model existed. Genuine stored zero work gives zero devices. One value per closed UTC day; open or unsealed days are unknown and missing inputs stay gaps. a × 1,000,000 / 580 when a is at least 0, otherwise undefined, where a is the estimated network hash rate in EH/s and 1,000,000 converts EH/s to TH/s. The estimate derives from retained canonical block difficulty/work divided by UTC-day duration, keeping its original floating-point source precision. Fractional counts are retained. Computed from our own validated Bitcoin Core node in 40-significant-digit Decimal; canonical ancestry, holds and weakest-input finality are inherited.
