Intel begins manufacturing blockchain cryptocurrency
The noise of cryptocurrency and blockchain echoes now that Intel has announced its first blockchain processor, dubbed the crypto chip.
Intel has dubbed the new microchip a "blockchain" accelerator, and its efforts have been ongoing for some time. According to initial reports, this chip block is made in China. It can do cryptocurrency mining. But most of all, it saves extraordinary amounts of energy, also known as the eco-friendly crypto chip. Because crypto mining requires extraordinary electricity which is having a negative impact on the environment.
Intel has built its first chip with changing requirements, including the corrupt aspect, and so far two companies have expressed interest in buying it, one named GRIID and another financial technology company. Block included.
Regarding this invention, Raja Kodori, Senior Vice President, Main Intel, said that its revolutionary circuit is a thousand times better per watt than all the best processors and GPU in energy saving. It can be used for SHA 256 style mining. It should be noted that bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are created thanks to SHA 256.
But other details of this microchip are not given. The details will now be announced at the International Solid State Circuit Conference on February 20. At the conference, Intel will also introduce the concept of Bonenza Mine, a low-power protocol for minting bitcoins. In this way, one chip will do one thing at a time and that will be the job of cryptocurrency mining.
It should be noted that the environmental impact of the introduction of cryptocurrency is a matter of concern for many governments around the world. It is now the case that coal and gas plants are being built to meet this demand, which is further polluting the environment. The issue has even reached the US Congress and is being legislated.
