Intel insists the effort won’t put a strain energy supplies or deprive consumers of chips. The goal is to create the most energy-efficient blockchain mining equipment on the planet, it says.<p>In addition, the company is avoiding the term mining. Instead, Intel is using the phrase &quot;blockchain accelerators.&quot;

As I was reading, this question pops up in my mind.<p>Are the any recent resources with figures that shows how much energy ( in terms of Kw&#x2F;H or something that a household uses, not in terms of Racks or Datacenter ) and time that is required to mine a bitcoin or crypto using different hardware?
