Mining Hashrate is growing exponentially. #Bitcoin is heading to the Zettahash era. Some say it will happen as soon as 2025, but past trends say it will take a while longer. When do you think we will reach Zettahash? Of course it also depends on the adoption of Bitcoin. If BTC moons tomorrow, a whole lot of people will buy and start mining decreasing the estimated time to Zettahash era.

2016-2023 EH/s - 8 years to scale further 1000x

2013-2016 PH/s - 4 years to scale further 1000x

2011-2013 TH/s - 3 years to scale further 1000x

2010-2011 GH/s - 2 years to scale 1000x

2009-2010 MH/s - First year

Kilo 1k (3 zeroes - thousand)

Mega 1M (6 zeroes - million)

Giga 1k-M (9 zeroes - billion)

Tera 1M-M (12 zeroes - trillion)

Peta 1k-M-M (15 zeroes - quadrillion)

Exa 1M-M-M (18 zeroes - quintillion)

Zetta 1k-M-M-M (21 zeroes - sextillion)

The unit after exahash is zettahash. 400 exahash is equal to 0.4 zettahash, or four hundred quintillion hashes per second. According to River Financial analyst Sam Wouters, Bitcoin could reach the zettahash era by the end of 2025.
