How many altcoin confirmations are equivalent to 6 Bitcoin confirmations?
Compares Proof-of-Work across blockchains by converting hashrates into power consumption (watts), then calculating how many confirmations on each chain equal the same amount of work as 6 Bitcoin confirmations. How are these values calculated?
