Comment on Bitcoin Network Doubles to 2 PH/s in Four Weeks; the First 1 PH/s Took 4.7 Yearsparent

Comments

Bitmessage isn't blockchain based. Bitmessage, at the moment, is entirely separate from Bitcoin. While in Bitcoin, every full node has a complete transaction history since the network's inception, Bitmessage nodes simply hold every message since 2.5 days ago.

Isn't the proof of work the same as bitcoin though?

(I shouldn't have said blockchain, proof of work would be what the ASIC's are relevant to.)
