[F2Pool Co-Founder: Fundamental Economic Differences Between Space Bitcoin Mining and Space AI Data Centers] Reported by Jinse Finance, F2Pool Co-Founder Wang Chun (@satofishi) posted on the X platform stating that there are fundamental economic differences between space Bitcoin mining and space AI data centers. For space AI data centers, their potential for scalable development is virtually limitless. As long as global demand for artificial intelligence continues to surge, Earth's resources in terms of electricity, land, cooling facilities, and regulatory frameworks will eventually become bottlenecks for development. Even though the initial cost of space computing power is far higher than that on Earth, if terrestrial computing power continues to be insufficient, its cost will keep rising until it matches the cost of space computing power. On the other hand, space Bitcoin mining, aside from the network latency issue previously pointed out by Peter Todd (@peterktodd) in related articles, is also constrained by the hard limits of blockchain protocols, making it a zero-sum game. The revenue pie shared by miners is relatively fixed, with approximately 450 Bitcoin block rewards daily, plus fluctuating transaction fees. Based on the current Bitcoin price of $60,000 to $70,000 per coin, the annual peak revenue in this field is about $10 billion. In this market, revenue does not grow linearly with the increase in mining computing power. Unless the price of a single Bitcoin skyrockets to around $500 billion, it is economically unrealistic to build a Bitcoin mining farm large enough to cover the entire surface of Venus. However, such large-scale construction is feasible for AI data centers.
