Re: house of cards question
Nothing , because it is NOT computing power, it is hash calculation power
the chips used are single solution hardware. remove the requirement for work and you re left with e-waste fit for land fill.
Nearly all the hardware on offer is useless for generating fully extractable sha256(x) or sha256(sha256(x)), you cannot actually get out all the XYZ GH/S results.
Since the check for a solution is hardcoded into the actual chips, so the result calculations are not even extractable only single proposed solutions are passed out of the chip.
