Yearly update on my verifiable brute force strength gist.
- Bitcoin mining is still just shy of exhausting 95 bits annually.
- Distributed.net's RC5-72 project is still just shy of exhausting 65 bits annually.
We're still 10+ billion years out for completely exhausting every possible key in a 128-bit key space with the current Bitcoin mining power.
