Can someone create a quick excel/numbers sheet to display the energy consumption of Hive?

Would have to be filled with:

  • top 25 witnesses (2 witness nodes each - 32GB-64GB)
  • top 25+ (1 witness node each - 16GB-32GB)
  • plus seed nodes (estimated at ~12 - 32GB)
  • (maybe) RPC Nodes (https://beacon.peakd.com/)

Did I miss something?

The idea behind this is that Elon Musk has seemingly tanked the market by criticizing Bitcoin's energy consumption.

And it would be good to have some data to show how energy-efficient, as well as resilient, Hive is.
