We don’t log all the failed hashes attempting to find the lowest target hash for The Block Reward.If the #Bitcoin network hash rate is 600 exahash, it means we’re pulling in 600 quadrillion hashes per second. There are 600 seconds in 10 mins.600 seconds x 600 quadrillion hashes

= 360 quintillion guesses on average for every 10 mins a block reward is found AND typically only one of those guesses is considered a valid hash.

It is a ridiculously unfathomably big number. Humans brains are not made to process how large that number is.
