HarryPotterObamaSonic10Inu (BITCOIN) sustainability report

HarryPotterObamaSonic10Inu is present on the following networks: Base, Berachain, Binance Smart Chain, Ethereum, Solana.

Base is a Layer 2 network that executes transactions away from the Ethereum chain and settles them on it. It runs no consensus protocol of its own and has no validator set of its own. Agreement about which Base transactions occurred, and in what order, is ultimately established by the data and the state commitments the network publishes to Ethereum, which are secured by Ethereum's proof-of-stake consensus.

Ordering and execution on the Layer 2 are carried out by a single sequencer, operated by the company that launched the network. It receives transactions, places them into blocks at a fixed cadence and returns a result to the user straight away; those blocks are then compressed and posted to Ethereum in batches, alongside commitments to the state they produce. Once a batch sits inside a finalized Ethereum block, the ordering it encodes is as hard to reverse as Ethereum itself. Users are not wholly dependent on the sequencer for access: a transaction can instead be submitted through a contract on Ethereum, and the rules by which the Layer 2 chain is derived oblige it to be included, which bounds how far the sequencer can censor.

Base is an optimistic rollup, built on the shared OP Stack codebase and part of the Superchain group of networks that use it. State commitments are accepted as correct unless disputed. Anyone may propose one and anyone may challenge one within a dispute window, by playing an interactive game on Ethereum that narrows the disagreement down to a single step of execution, which an Ethereum contract then settles by running that step itself. Both sides post bonds, so an untrue claim and a frivolous challenge are each expensive. Permissionless fault proofs have run on the main network since late 2024, and a multi-party security council with a supermajority threshold governs changes to the contracts; together these place the network at the intermediate tier of the rollup maturity scale commonly used to compare such systems. A withdrawal to Ethereum cannot complete until the dispute window for the relevant commitment has elapsed. Decentralizing the sequencer itself remains outstanding work.

Berachain splits consensus from execution across two processes that every node operator runs side by side. Execution is handled by an Ethereum-compatible client holding the state and running the virtual machine; consensus is handled by a client built around a modified CometBFT engine, and the two communicate over the same engine interface Ethereum node software already uses. The result is an Ethereum execution environment settling under a Byzantine-fault-tolerant proof-of-stake engine rather than Ethereum's attestation and checkpoint machinery.

Consensus advances in timed rounds. A proposer is designated at each height in proportion to bonded stake, and a block commits once operators representing more than two thirds of bonded weight have voted for it, which makes it final in that same block: there are no attestation committees, no epochs and no delayed finalization. Where a proposer fails to deliver, the round times out and another operator proposes at that height. Entry to the active set is governed by bonded stake in the network's native asset. An operator must bond at least two hundred and fifty thousand units, is capped at ten million, and must rank among the top sixty-nine by bonded amount, a ceiling set by governance. Voting power follows the bonded amount rounded down to a fixed granularity, and an operator leaves the set only by exiting voluntarily or by being displaced by a larger entrant.

Proof of Liquidity describes what happens to the block reward rather than how blocks are ordered. Each block issues a fixed quantity of the native asset in its wrapped form, of which only a small fixed portion goes to the proposing operator. The larger portion is routed by an on-chain allocation contract into reward vaults, contracts that pay out to participants who have deposited approved liquidity positions, and operators decide how their allocation is spread across the approved vaults. Consensus participation therefore determines where liquidity incentives land, which is the design's distinguishing feature.

That design changed substantially after launch. Until July 2026 emissions were paid in a second, non-transferable asset that also carried governance rights, and an operator's emissions scaled with how much of it had been delegated to them. A hard fork removed that asset from the mechanism: emissions are now fixed per block, no longer scale with delegation of a separate token, and the retired asset has no remaining role in reward allocation or governance, with outstanding balances converting when claimed.

BNB Smart Chain, the programmable chain of BNB Chain and formerly styled Binance Smart Chain, reaches agreement through Proof of Staked Authority, a design that borrows stake-weighted election from delegated proof of stake and rotating, permissioned block production from proof of authority. Bonded stake decides who may produce blocks rather than who wins any individual slot. The network keeps an active set of forty-five operators, ranked by the amount of the native asset bonded to them through self-delegation and through delegation from holders. The twenty-one highest-ranked form the cabinet tier and the next twenty-four are candidates, with everyone below inactive and producing nothing. Rankings are recomputed once a day, so membership of the set turns over on a daily cycle rather than per block.

Within each epoch a consensus group of twenty-one is drawn from the active set, weighted heavily toward the cabinet tier, and those operators take turns proposing in a fixed rotation. Turn length and epoch length are protocol parameters that have been retuned repeatedly as block intervals shortened: successive upgrades cut the interval from three seconds to 1.5, then to 0.75 in mid-2025, and to 0.45 seconds in January 2026. A separate voting layer sits above the rotation, in which validators sign attestations on recent blocks; once enough signatures accumulate a block is treated as final, giving deterministic finality in roughly a second. Should that voting layer stall, the chain falls back to confirmation by accumulated depth, which takes minutes rather than seconds.

Security rests on an honest supermajority of a deliberately small elected set, backed by on-chain penalty logic. A slashing contract watches for double signing, for contradictory attestations in the fast-finality vote, and for repeated failure to produce during an assigned turn. Consequences range from temporary jailing and lost rewards through to removal from the set and forfeiture of part of a validator's own bonded stake. The trade-off is deliberate: a compact, frequently re-elected validator set buys very short block intervals and cheap execution, at the cost of the broader operator base that larger validator sets provide.

Ethereum reaches agreement through proof of stake, adopted in September 2022 when the original mining-based chain was retired in favor of a validator-driven consensus layer. The protocol family is usually referred to as Gasper. A fork-choice rule named LMD-GHOST selects the head of the chain by following the branch carrying the greatest accumulated weight of validator votes, while a separate finality gadget, Casper FFG, periodically justifies and then finalizes checkpoints, so that reversing them would require destroying an enormous quantity of bonded value.

Time is divided into slots of twelve seconds, and thirty-two slots form an epoch. For each slot the protocol pseudo-randomly designates one active validator to assemble and publish a block, and assigns the rest to committees that vote on what they believe is the correct head and the correct checkpoints. Under healthy conditions a checkpoint becomes final two epochs after it is proposed, a little under thirteen minutes, after which everything beneath it is treated as settled.

Joining the validator set requires a deposit of no fewer than 32 units of the native asset. Since the protocol upgrade of May 2025 a single validator may hold a far larger balance, up to 2,048 units, and earn on the whole of it, which lets an operator running many minimum-sized validators consolidate them into fewer; the activation floor itself did not change. Entry and exit are rate-limited by a queue measured in staked weight rather than in validator headcount, which bounds how fast the composition of the set can turn over.

Security rests on voting power being bonded. A validator that signs contradictory messages can be proved to have done so and is penalized, and the size of that penalty scales with how much other stake was penalized at the same time, so a coordinated attack is punished far more severely than an isolated fault. Should the chain stop finalizing altogether, a separate mechanism gradually erodes the balances of validators that are not participating until the remainder again represents a large enough majority to finalize. Upgrades during 2024 and 2025 changed how large data payloads are distributed and sampled between nodes, without altering this underlying agreement process.

Solana runs a proof-of-stake network in which the right to produce a block is allocated in proportion to the quantity of the native asset staked to each validator. What sets the design apart is that ordering is established before agreement is sought. A designated leader runs a sequential hash chain, each output feeding the next input, so the chain cannot be computed faster than a fixed number of steps and a transaction's position within it is evidence of when that transaction was received. This construction, called proof of history, spares validators from negotiating timestamps with one another and lets the rest of the protocol treat the order of events as already settled.

Leadership is not auctioned block by block. At the start of each epoch, which runs for roughly two days, a schedule is derived deterministically from the active stake distribution and assigns every short slot in the epoch to a named validator. Slots follow one another a few hundred milliseconds apart. The scheduled leader gathers transactions, executes them and streams the resulting block to the rest of the set in small fragments relayed through a tree structure rather than pushed to every peer at once. Receiving validators replay the block independently and publish votes for the fork they consider canonical.

Fork choice weights those votes by stake, and each vote commits a validator to its chosen fork for a period that doubles with every further confirmation, so abandoning a block grows steadily more costly. A block that a supermajority of stake has voted on is treated as confirmed within about a second, and it is locked in permanently once enough additional confirmations accumulate, which takes on the order of ten seconds. Safety rests on the assumption that participants acting dishonestly control less than a third of staked value. A revision of the voting layer, approved in a stake-weighted validator vote, is being activated on the main network in stages; it retains stake-weighted validation and the existing block distribution scheme while replacing the incremental lockout rule with direct voting that settles in one or two rounds.

HarryPotterObamaSonic10Inu is present on the following networks: Base, Berachain, Binance Smart Chain, Ethereum, Solana.

Base has no native protocol asset, no staking and no issuance. Nothing is minted to reward participation and there is no validator or delegation system on the Layer 2. Fees are denominated and paid in ether, the same asset used on the settlement layer.

What a user pays has two parts, and they behave quite differently. The first is the cost of executing the transaction on the Layer 2, metered in gas exactly as on Ethereum and priced by an equivalent algorithmic base fee that moves with how full recent Layer 2 blocks have been, plus an optional tip. Because Layer 2 block space is plentiful, this component is usually very small and fairly stable. The second is a charge for the cost of publishing that transaction's data to Ethereum. It is assessed per transaction from the compressed byte size of the transaction and the prevailing price of settlement-layer data space, and it is collected when the transaction is processed even though the actual posting happens later, in a batch shared with many others. This second component typically dominates the total and is why Layer 2 costs track conditions on Ethereum.

Since Ethereum opened a dedicated market for rollup data in 2024, the network posts its batches into that market rather than as ordinary transaction data. Those data fees are priced independently of execution and are destroyed rather than paid to anyone, which cut this component sharply. A December 2025 change on the settlement layer raised the available data capacity while introducing a floor that ties the minimum data price to ordinary execution costs, so the charge no longer falls to almost nothing whenever demand for data space is light.

Fees collected on the Layer 2 accrue to the entity operating the sequencer, funding the cost of running it and of settling to Ethereum, with a portion shared with the collective that stewards the shared codebase. The other economic mechanism at work is the dispute system: participants who propose or challenge a state commitment post bonds that are forfeited if they are shown to be wrong, which funds honest challenges and makes dishonest claims costly.

Each block on Berachain issues a fixed quantity of the network's native asset in wrapped form, divided along fixed lines rather than by any variable weighting. A small fixed portion is credited to the proposing operator, and the larger fixed portion goes to the distributor that feeds reward vaults. Because both rates are constant, an operator's emissions no longer scale with delegated balances of a separate token, as they did before the July 2026 fork. Annual issuance from these emissions runs at roughly five percent of supply and is a governance parameter.

The vaults are where the incentive structure becomes unusual. A protocol wanting emissions steered toward its own liquidity supplies incentive tokens of its own to a vault. The operator whose allocation directed emissions there takes a commission on those incentive tokens, and what remains is auctioned for the wrapped native asset, with the proceeds accruing to the staking vault whose share token ordinary stakers hold. Depositors of eligible liquidity positions therefore collect the block emissions, the protocols seeking that liquidity pay for it in their own assets, and stakers who simply bond the native asset receive the value realized from selling those incentives. Allocation is granted through agreements that require demonstrable on-chain usage, replacing the earlier arrangement in which allocation was bid for through delegation-weighted voting.

Additional holders can add stake to an operator directly through the deposit contract or indirectly through pooling contracts, subject to the per-operator ceiling. Enforcement at the consensus layer works chiefly through forfeiture and exclusion: an operator that fails to propose when designated earns nothing for that slot, an operator that stops participating ceases to earn altogether, and an operator displaced from the active set has its bonded stake returned to its withdrawal address and must generate fresh consensus keys before re-entering.

Users pay for execution in the native asset under an Ethereum-style fee market. Every block carries a base fee per unit of gas that the protocol raises when blocks run above their gas target and lowers when they run below, and that base fee is burned, permanently removing those units from circulation. A separate priority tip, set by the sender, goes to the block producer. Contract execution and storage are metered through the standard virtual-machine gas schedule, with no recurring rent charged against stored state.

BNB Smart Chain pays for its own security out of transaction fees rather than out of new issuance. The native asset carries no protocol-level block subsidy, so every reward reaching a validator or a delegator originates in gas paid by users. When a block is finalized the proposer's collected fees are routed into system contracts and split three ways. A governed fraction is sent to an unspendable address and permanently removed from supply, a slice accumulates in a reward vault used for network-wide purposes such as paying for fast-finality attestations, and the balance sits in the validator-set contract until it is distributed, on a daily cycle, to active validators and the holders who delegated to them.

Participation is staking-based. An operator must self-delegate a substantial amount of the native asset before it can be considered for the active set, and holders may bond additional stake to any validator to lift its ranking. Delegators receive their proportional share of whatever the validator earns, after the commission that validator sets for itself, and only the forty-five ranked operators earn at all: stake bonded to an inactive validator yields nothing. Unbonding is subject to a waiting period, so stake cannot be pulled out the instant misbehavior comes to light.

Penalties are graduated. Missing assigned turns or going offline for a sustained stretch triggers jailing, during which the validator produces nothing and earns nothing. Double signing and contradictory attestations in the finality vote are treated far more severely and can cost the validator a portion of its own bonded stake alongside ejection from the set.

Users face a conventional gas-metered fee model inherited from the Ethereum virtual machine. Each operation carries a gas cost, the sender chooses a gas price, and the total is charged in the native asset. There is no separate storage rent, so the cost of persisting state is bundled into execution gas, and deploying or calling a contract is priced purely by the computation and storage it consumes. The minimum acceptable gas price is a coordinated parameter that operators and infrastructure providers have revised downward several times, keeping ordinary transfers and contract calls inexpensive in absolute terms.

Payment inside the protocol flows to validators, the only participants the consensus layer compensates directly. A validator earns newly issued units of the network's native asset for voting promptly and correctly on the head of the chain and on the checkpoints being justified, for serving its turn in the committee that signs headers for light clients, and, when selected to propose, for the block itself. The proposer additionally keeps the priority portion of the fees in that block, together with whatever it receives from the separate market through which many proposers outsource block assembly. There is no delegation inside the consensus rules: stake is either operated directly or entrusted to an operator through arrangements that sit outside the protocol.

Users pay for execution in gas, metered per operation, with writes to persistent state priced far above arithmetic. Every transaction carries a base fee per unit of gas that the protocol sets algorithmically from how full recent blocks have been, and that amount is destroyed rather than paid to anyone, so sustained demand withdraws native asset from circulation. On top of it a user adds a voluntary tip, which goes to the proposer and governs how quickly the transaction is picked up. Data posted on behalf of Layer 2 networks is priced in a second, independent market whose fee is likewise destroyed; a December 2025 upgrade tied the floor of that market to ordinary execution costs so it cannot collapse to a negligible level, and capped the gas any one transaction may consume.

Penalties mirror the rewards. Failing to vote, or voting late or incorrectly, costs a validator roughly what correct behavior would have earned it. Provable equivocation is treated far more harshly: the offender is scheduled for ejection, forfeits part of its balance immediately, and later incurs an additional correlated penalty computed from how much other stake was penalized nearby in time. Prolonged absence while the chain is failing to finalize drains balances until finality can resume. Stakers may take out accumulated rewards without leaving the set, and since 2025 may also trigger a full exit from the execution layer rather than only from the consensus client.

Two streams of payment reach validators. The protocol issues new units of the native asset on a defined schedule and distributes them at the close of every epoch to validators and to the stake delegated to them, in proportion both to that stake and to the voting credits the validator actually accrued over the epoch; an operator that missed its slots or stopped voting accrues fewer credits and receives a correspondingly smaller share. Holders who do not wish to run hardware delegate through a stake account to an operator of their choice, retain control of that account, and receive the reward net of whatever commission the operator has set. Delegated stake becomes active and inactive only at epoch boundaries, so capital committed to securing the network cannot be pulled out on demand.

Users pay a fixed base fee for every signature a transaction carries. Half of that amount is destroyed and half is paid to the validator that produced the block. A transaction may attach an optional priority fee, quoted per unit of requested compute, which under a protocol change adopted in 2025 goes in full to the block producer; this is the mechanism that rations capacity when demand exceeds what a slot can hold. Program execution is metered in compute units against a per-transaction ceiling, so the cost of a contract call tracks the work it requests rather than a flat tariff.

Storage is charged once, not continuously. An account has to hold a minimum balance scaled to the number of bytes it occupies in order to be exempt from rent, and that balance is a refundable deposit rather than a fee: closing the account returns it. Recurring rent collection has been switched off at the protocol level and rent-paying accounts can no longer be created, so ongoing storage charges do not form part of the fee model as it now stands.

Staked assets are not confiscated by the protocol. No implemented mechanism automatically destroys a validator's stake for equivocation or for being offline; the cost of downtime is forgone reward set against operating expense, including the fees an operator pays to submit its own votes. A scheme to record provable duplicate-block violations on chain, as groundwork for any future economic penalty, is still at proposal stage and would not itself remove stake.

HarryPotterObamaSonic10Inu is present on the following networks: Base, Berachain, Binance Smart Chain, Ethereum, Solana.

The estimate for this network has two components, and they are constructed differently.

The first is the network's own infrastructure. This is a small and largely identifiable set of machines rather than a large permissionless population: the sequencer that orders and executes transactions, the batching service that compresses and submits data to the settlement layer, the service that publishes state commitments, and the replica and archive nodes that third parties operate to serve applications and to independently check what the sequencer produced. The number of independent replicas is estimated from crawlers of the Layer 2 peer-to-peer network and from public information about node operators and infrastructure providers. Hardware profiles are inferred from the published requirements of the node software, which for a high-throughput rollup are materially heavier than for an ordinary chain, and per-device power draw comes from measurement on representative equipment under controlled laboratory conditions, counting idle draw as well as load. The fault-proof machinery adds little in normal operation, since the interactive dispute game runs only when a commitment is actually challenged rather than continuously.

The second component is the share of the settlement layer's consumption that this network causes. That layer is Ethereum, whose own consumption is estimated from its validator population using the node-level method described for that network. A portion is attributed here in proportion to what this network occupies there, principally the data space its batches consume, alongside the gas used by its commitment and dispute contracts. Because the settlement layer's consumption is driven by a continuously running validator set rather than by throughput, this attributed share is modest next to the Layer 2's own footprint, but it is included so that settlement is not treated as free.

Both components are estimates built on public observation and stated software requirements, not metered readings. The replica population is the least observable part and the largest source of uncertainty. Where evidence is thin, the assumptions used are those more likely to overstate impact than understate it, and figures are revised as observation improves. The settlement layer publishes its own account of its energy profile at Ethereum energy consumption.

Berachain reaches agreement through bonded proof of stake, so the estimation approach applied here builds upward from the machines that run the network rather than from any model of mining hardware economics. The starting point is the size of the node population. Consensus operators can be enumerated from chain state; the surrounding population of full nodes, archive nodes, indexers and public endpoints cannot, and is approximated from crawling the peer-to-peer topology, from advertised endpoints and from operator directories, held as a range rather than a single number.

The chain's node architecture shapes the hardware profile in a specific way. A participant does not run one program but two: a consensus client and an execution client, operating as separate processes on the same host and exchanging work over the engine interface. The representative machine is therefore sized from the combined published requirements of both clients rather than from either alone, which raises the assumed processor, memory and storage specification above what a single-process chain would imply. Reward vaults and the allocation contracts that feed them are ordinary contract state executed by the same clients, so they add computational load but no separate infrastructure to count.

Power draw for each profile comes from laboratory measurement of comparable equipment under load and at rest. Idle draw is included deliberately, because machines of this kind are provisioned for peak demand and left running continuously, and that resting consumption forms much of the annual total. Multiplying profiles by the estimated population and by hours of operation yields the network figure, with an allowance added for hosting overhead. Where a figure is needed for one asset rather than the whole network, a share of the network total is attributed to it according to observed on-chain activity, and an asset present on several networks has its shares summed.

The honest qualifications are these. Node counts derive from public observation and will miss machines that stay unadvertised; a single hardware profile stands in for a varied and partly virtualized population; and none of this is metered measurement. Where evidence is absent the assumption taken is the one that raises the estimate, and figures are revised as observation improves.

The energy figure for BNB Smart Chain is built upward from the node population rather than downward from operator revenue, which is the appropriate treatment for a staked network where block production is not a computational race. Nothing about the fee model or the value of the native asset determines how much hardware is deployed: the size of the validator set is fixed by protocol, and the wider population of non-validating nodes is driven by demand for chain access.

The estimate has three inputs. The first is the number of machines. The elected validator set is known from the chain itself, while the surrounding population of full and archive nodes is approximated from peer-discovery crawls, public node listings and network scans, all of which observe only nodes willing to accept inbound connections and therefore tend toward undercounting. The second input is a representative hardware profile per node, inferred from the client software's published requirements, which on this chain are demanding relative to slower networks of the same family, since sub-second block intervals and rapid state growth push operators toward high core counts, large memory and fast solid-state storage. The third is the electrical draw of such a machine, taken from measurement of comparable configurations on the bench, both under sustained load and at idle, because a validator idles between its assigned turns and that baseline draw is a real part of the total. Aggregating the per-machine figure across the estimated population, with an allowance for the overhead of the facilities housing it, gives the network total.

Several qualifications belong with the result. It is a modeled estimate resting on observed node counts and stated software requirements, not metered consumption at the socket. Where evidence is thin, the assumptions chosen lean toward overstating rather than understating consumption. Figures are revised as crawler coverage and hardware information improve. Finally, apportioning a share of the network total to any single asset issued on the chain is done from observed on-chain transfer volumes, which measures how heavily an asset is used rather than the energy it uniquely causes.

The figure reported for this network is assembled machine by machine, treating the computers that run the protocol as the thing that draws electricity. The starting point is an estimate of how many independent nodes are operating, built from crawlers that walk the peer-to-peer layer and record every peer they can reach, supplemented by public listings of infrastructure and staking providers and by the protocol's own visible record of how much stake is active and how it is spread across operators.

A representative hardware profile is then inferred for those machines. The client software publishes what it requires in processor, memory and disk terms, and operators have little reason to provision far beyond that, so the profile is derived from those stated requirements rather than from a survey of individual operators. Power draw for the resulting device classes comes from measurement on representative equipment under controlled laboratory conditions, capturing both the load validating places on a machine and the draw of a machine that is powered on but momentarily idle, which for a network of this kind accounts for a large share of the total. Multiplying measured per-device draw across the estimated population over the reporting period yields the network figure. Where a disclosure concerns one of the many assets issued on this network rather than the network itself, a portion of the network total is assigned to it in proportion to observed on-chain transfer volumes.

The limits deserve stating plainly. The node count records what is reachable, not a census, and machines behind restrictive network configurations are missed. The hardware profile is a reasoned inference from published software requirements, not a record of what any particular operator bought. Nothing here is metered at the wall. Where the evidence runs out, the assumptions chosen are those that push the estimate upward rather than downward, so the result is more likely to overstate consumption than to understate it, and it is revised as observation improves. The network's own account of its energy profile is published at Ethereum energy consumption.

The figure reported for this network is assembled from the machines that run it rather than inferred from any single aggregate quantity. The starting point is a count of active nodes, put together from network crawlers, publicly reachable cluster and gossip information, and data operators choose to publish. That population is then divided by role, because a validator taking part in voting, a machine that only replays the ledger, and the infrastructure that answers application requests do not draw comparable amounts of power.

Each role is matched to a representative hardware profile derived from the resources the client software is documented to need. Requirements here are heavy by the standards of proof-of-stake systems, running to many processor cores, large memory and fast solid-state storage, and the profiles reflect that rather than assuming commodity equipment. Electrical draw per profile is taken from controlled bench measurement of equivalent devices, capturing both the load imposed by processing and the draw of a machine that is powered up but idle, since a node consumes electricity continuously whether or not it is producing a block. Multiplying profiles by the estimated population across the hours of the reporting period gives consumption for the network as a whole. Where a figure is attributed to one asset issued on the network rather than to the network itself, the share is taken from observed on-chain transfer activity for that asset.

The output is an estimate and should be read as one. The node count rests on what is visible from outside, and operators are under no obligation to be visible; the hardware mix is inferred from stated requirements rather than surveyed; and facility overheads such as cooling and power conversion are approximated rather than metered. Where the evidence does not settle a question, the assumption adopted is the one more likely to overstate consumption than understate it, and figures are restated as observation improves or as protocol changes alter the work a node must perform. The network's own climate reporting is published at Solana Climate Dashboard.

HarryPotterObamaSonic10Inu is present on the following networks: Base, Berachain, Binance Smart Chain, Ethereum, Solana.

The renewable share reported for this network is a weighted average of the electricity mixes of the grids its infrastructure draws on, assembled in two steps: establish where the machines are, then attach regional generation statistics to those places.

Locating them is easier for some parts of the network than others. The sequencing, batching and commitment services run in identifiable data center regions, and the hosting regions an operator uses are publicly observable. The wider population of replica and archive nodes is inferred as it would be for any peer-to-peer network, from the addresses peers advertise so that others can reach them, collected by crawlers and supplemented by public directories of infrastructure providers. Resolving a single address to a country is unreliable, but in aggregate these resolutions describe a distribution well enough to weight against. Where the observable sample is too thin, the geographic spread of a structurally comparable network is used in its place, chosen because its operators face similar hosting economics rather than because it runs similar software. The same exercise is carried out for the settlement layer, because part of the figure reported here is an attributed share of Ethereum's consumption, and Ethereum's validator population is spread quite differently from a rollup's concentrated operator infrastructure. The two distributions are weighted by their respective contributions to consumption and combined.

Each location is then matched to published statistics on how electricity is generated in that country or region, and the renewable proportion is the consumption-weighted share falling in regions supplied by renewable generation. Grid averages are used throughout, because the actual supply arrangements of individual hosting facilities are not observable; a facility on a dedicated renewable supply and one drawing ordinary grid power in the same country are treated alike.

Energy intensity is a marginal figure rather than an average: the additional electricity attributable to one further transaction on the network as it currently runs. Because most of the infrastructure runs continuously whether or not it is busy, that marginal quantity is much smaller than dividing total consumption by the transaction count would suggest. The generation statistics come from Share of electricity generated by renewables, compiled by Our World in Data from Ember's electricity datasets and the Energy Institute's Statistical Review of World Energy.

The renewable share reported for Berachain is inferred rather than measured, by establishing where the network's machines are and then reading the electricity statistics of those places. The inputs are publicly observable: nodes advertise addresses so that peers can reach them, those addresses resolve to hosting providers and regions, and crawling the peer-to-peer layer repeatedly yields a country-level picture of the network. Regions disclosed by operators, and the known siting of the hosting facilities they use, tighten that picture further.

Because a participant runs a consensus client and an execution client on the same host, the two are treated as one physical location for this purpose; the architecture adds to the consumption attributed to a site without spreading it across additional ones. Where the geographic distribution still cannot be resolved with confidence, the observed spread of a structurally similar network is used instead, similar meaning that it rewards participation comparably and demands comparable hardware, so its operators weigh the same considerations when choosing where to host. That substitution approximates, and it is the largest single contributor to uncertainty in the published share.

Locations are then matched against public statistics on how electricity is generated in each country or region, weighted by the consumption attributed to each, and aggregated into the proportion of the network's electricity that comes from renewable sources. The figure is a grid average: it describes what the regional system delivered, not a supply contract held by any particular operator.

Energy intensity is a different measure and should not be confused with the total. It expresses the marginal energy cost of one further transaction, the additional consumption the network incurs by processing one more transaction on top of what it already handles. Since these machines run continuously whether blocks are full or nearly empty, that marginal quantity is small and shrinks as throughput increases.

Electricity generation statistics are drawn from Share of electricity generated by renewables, compiled by Our World in Data from Ember and from the Energy Institute's Statistical Review of World Energy.

The renewable share reported for BNB Smart Chain follows from where its machines physically run, so the method begins with locating them. Node addresses visible through peer discovery and public network observation are resolved to hosting providers, autonomous systems and countries, producing an approximate geographic distribution of the validator and full-node population. Where that observation is too sparse to stand on its own, the distribution of a network with a comparable staking design and operator economics is substituted, on the reasoning that similar incentives attract similar operators into similar hosting markets.

That distribution is then matched against national electricity statistics. Each country's share of generation coming from renewable sources is taken from Share of electricity generated by renewables, compiled and processed by Our World in Data from Ember's yearly electricity datasets and the Energy Institute's Statistical Review of World Energy. Weighting those country-level shares by the portion of estimated node capacity sitting in each gives a single renewable percentage for the network.

Energy intensity is a separate quantity and is defined marginally: the additional electricity associated with one further transaction being processed, rather than the annual total divided by the transaction count. On a chain that produces blocks on a fixed schedule whether or not they are full, the marginal figure is far smaller than a simple average would suggest, and the two should not be used interchangeably.

Three limits are worth stating plainly. An observed hosting location identifies a grid but not a procurement arrangement, so an operator buying renewable power on a carbon-heavy grid is indistinguishable from one that is not. Cloud and proxy infrastructure can place a node's apparent location away from the hardware actually running it. And national annual averages smooth over the hourly and seasonal variation in generation mix that a continuously running machine actually draws from.

The renewable share reported here is a weighted average of grid mixes rather than a record of what any operator actually buys. It is produced in two steps: establish where the infrastructure sits, then attach regional electricity statistics to those places.

Location is inferred from what the network exposes publicly. Nodes advertise network addresses in order to be reachable by peers, and those addresses resolve to a country accurately enough to describe an aggregate distribution, even though any single resolution may be wrong. Crawlers of the peer-to-peer layer and public directories of hosting and staking infrastructure supply the input. Where the observable sample is too thin or too skewed to stand for the whole population, the geographic spread of a structurally similar network is substituted, chosen because its participants face comparable hardware costs and comparable pressures over where to site machines, on the reasoning that operators respond to the same commercial forces even where the software differs.

Each location is then matched to published statistics on how electricity in that country or region is generated. The renewable proportion for the network is the consumption-weighted share falling in regions where generation is renewable. Grid averages are used because the alternative, knowing each operator's actual supply contract, is not observable; an operator on a dedicated renewable supply and one drawing ordinary grid power in the same country are treated alike.

Energy intensity is reported on a different basis from total consumption. It is a marginal quantity: the additional electricity attributable to processing one further transaction on the network as it currently runs. For a network whose consumption is driven by a validator set that operates continuously regardless of how busy the chain is, that marginal figure is small, and it is not the total divided by the transaction count. The generation statistics are drawn from Share of electricity generated by renewables, compiled by Our World in Data from Ember's electricity datasets and the Energy Institute's Statistical Review of World Energy.

The renewable share is derived geographically. Node locations are inferred from what the network exposes about itself: addresses observable through crawlers and public cluster information, resolved to a country or region. Coverage is never complete, because operators may sit behind hosting providers or relays that obscure where the hardware physically sits. Where the geographic spread of this network cannot be observed directly, the distribution of a structurally similar network stands in as a proxy, chosen because its validator economics and agreement protocol place comparable demands on operators and therefore tend to attract them to comparable locations.

Each located node is then assigned the generation mix of the grid that serves it. Those regional mixes come from Share of electricity generated by renewables, compiled by Our World in Data from Ember's yearly electricity data and the Energy Institute's Statistical Review of World Energy. Weighting each region's renewable share by the estimated consumption sitting in that region produces a network-wide proportion. The result describes the grids the infrastructure draws from, not contractual purchases: an operator buying renewable certificates is not treated differently from a neighbor on the same grid, because that distinction cannot be observed from outside.

Energy intensity is reported separately and means something narrower than total consumption divided by transaction count. It is the marginal quantity of energy associated with processing one further transaction. That distinction matters for a network of this type, where validators run continuously at close to constant power regardless of how full the blocks are, so the incremental energy attached to an additional transaction is small while the standing consumption of the validator set is not. Both the renewable share and the intensity figure therefore move with two separate things: the composition and location of the node population, and the grid statistics for the years covered, which are themselves restated as national reporting is revised.

HarryPotterObamaSonic10Inu is present on the following networks: Base, Berachain, Binance Smart Chain, Ethereum, Solana.

Emissions are not measured directly. They are derived by attaching a carbon intensity to each unit of electricity the network is estimated to consume, across both parts of its footprint: the machines the network operates itself, and the share of the settlement layer's consumption attributed to the data and commitments it posts there.

The geographic step repeats the one used for the renewable share. The hosting regions of the sequencing and batching infrastructure are publicly observable; the wider set of replica and archive nodes is located from the addresses peers advertise, collected by crawlers and public directories. Where observation is too sparse to characterize the population, the spread of a structurally comparable network is used in its place. The settlement layer's validator population is located separately, because it is distributed quite differently, and the two are weighted by how much consumption each accounts for. Each region is then assigned a carbon intensity, the average greenhouse gas released per unit of electricity generated on that grid, expressed in carbon dioxide equivalent so that methane and the other gases are counted on a common basis. Estimated consumption in a region multiplied by that region's intensity, summed across regions, gives the total.

Two scopes are distinguished. Scope 1 covers emissions from sources the operators of the infrastructure control directly, such as fuel burned on site in a generator. For infrastructure that consists of ordinary servers in commercial data centers drawing from public grids, there is generally nothing in that category, and it is reported as such rather than left out. Scope 2 covers the indirect emissions embodied in the purchased electricity, and is where essentially the whole footprint sits. Emissions from manufacturing and transporting the hardware fall outside this boundary.

Greenhouse gas intensity follows the marginal logic used for energy intensity: the additional emissions attributable to one further transaction, not an average spread across all of them. It inherits the uncertainty of both the consumption estimate and the grid averages. Carbon intensities are taken from Carbon intensity of electricity generation, compiled by Our World in Data from Ember's electricity datasets and the Energy Institute's Statistical Review of World Energy, and made available under the CC BY 4.0 license.

Greenhouse-gas figures for Berachain follow from the energy estimate by way of the carbon intensity of the electricity the network consumes; they are not observed directly. The geographic distribution assembled for the energy assessment is reused without change: the consumption attributed to each country or region is multiplied by that region's average emissions per unit of electricity generated, and the products are summed across regions. Since grid intensity varies by more than an order of magnitude from one system to another, the assumed geography bears on the result as heavily as the quantity of electricity does.

Two scopes are kept apart. Scope 1 captures emissions from sources the network's operators directly control, in practice fuel combusted on site, chiefly in standby generation. For infrastructure of this kind the quantity is negligible and is generally treated as zero, since the machines sit in facilities that purchase grid electricity rather than generating their own. Scope 2 captures the indirect emissions embodied in that purchased electricity, and effectively the entire reported figure falls there. Emissions arising from manufacturing the hardware, from constructing the facilities that house it, or from the wider activities of the organizations that operate it fall outside both scopes and are excluded.

Greenhouse-gas intensity is defined marginally, in the same way as its energy counterpart: the emission attributable to settling one additional transaction, rather than an annual total divided by a count of transactions. Treating it as an average would misdescribe a network whose infrastructure consumes power continuously regardless of how much it is asked to do.

Uncertainty accumulates at each step. Grid intensity values are annual averages that cannot reflect the hours in which power was actually drawn. Low-carbon supply arrangements held contractually by an individual operator are invisible to a grid-average method. And where a comparable network substituted for locations that could not be established, that approximation passes through into the emissions estimate untouched.

Emissions for BNB Smart Chain are derived from the same geographic picture used for the energy mix, then converted using regional carbon factors. Node locations are approximated from peer-discovery data, public network observation and hosting attribution, and where coverage is insufficient the distribution of a structurally similar staked network stands in. Each location carries the carbon intensity of its national grid, drawn from Carbon intensity of electricity generation, processed by Our World in Data from Ember's yearly electricity data and the Energy Institute's Statistical Review of World Energy and published under a CC BY 4.0 license. Multiplying the electricity attributed to each region by that region's grams of carbon dioxide equivalent per kilowatt-hour, and summing across regions, gives the annual emissions figure.

The split between scopes matters for interpretation. Scope 1 covers emissions from sources the network's operators control directly, such as on-site fuel combustion, which for a population of general-purpose servers in rented facility space is generally negligible and is reported as such. Scope 2 covers the indirect emissions embodied in the electricity those machines purchase from the grid, and that is where effectively the whole footprint sits. Emissions upstream of operation, in the manufacture and eventual disposal of the hardware, fall outside this accounting boundary.

Greenhouse-gas intensity mirrors the energy definition: the incremental emissions associated with one additional transaction, not the annual total divided by throughput.

Uncertainty in the emissions figure compounds the uncertainty in the two inputs behind it. Any error in the estimated electricity total propagates directly into the result, and the geographic attribution adds error of its own, since grid carbon intensity varies by more than an order of magnitude between countries and a misplaced share of node capacity moves the answer substantially. Annual national averages also mask the hourly variation in grid intensity to which a machine running around the clock is fully exposed.

Emissions are derived from the consumption estimate rather than measured, by attaching a carbon intensity to each unit of electricity the network is estimated to draw and summing across the network.

The geographic step repeats the one used for the renewable share. Node locations are inferred from publicly observable network data, principally the addresses peers advertise so that others can connect to them, gathered by crawlers and supplemented by public information about where staking and hosting infrastructure is operated. Where that observation is too sparse to characterize the whole population, the distribution of a comparable network stands in for it, selected because its participants face similar operating economics rather than because its software resembles this one. Each region is assigned a carbon intensity, meaning the average greenhouse gas released per unit of electricity generated on that grid, expressed in carbon dioxide equivalent so that methane and the other gases are counted on a common basis. Estimated consumption in a region multiplied by that region's intensity, summed across regions, gives the network total.

The reporting separates two scopes. Scope 1 covers emissions from sources the operators of the infrastructure control directly, such as fuel burned on site in a generator. For a network of this kind, whose participants overwhelmingly run ordinary servers connected to a public grid, there is generally nothing in that category, and it is reported as such rather than left out. Scope 2 covers the indirect emissions embodied in the electricity purchased to run that infrastructure, and that is where essentially the whole footprint sits. Emissions further up the supply chain, such as those from manufacturing and shipping the hardware, fall outside this boundary.

Greenhouse gas intensity follows the same marginal logic as energy intensity: it expresses the additional emissions attributable to one further transaction rather than an average spread across all of them. Because it inherits both the consumption estimate and the grid averages, its uncertainty combines theirs. Carbon intensities are taken from Carbon intensity of electricity generation, compiled by Our World in Data from Ember's electricity datasets and the Energy Institute's Statistical Review of World Energy, and made available under the CC BY 4.0 license.

Emissions are derived from the same geographic picture used for energy sources, applied to a different set of grid statistics. Node locations are inferred from addresses observable through crawlers and public cluster information and resolved to a region; where direct observation falls short, the geographic distribution of a structurally comparable network is substituted, selected on the basis that its incentive design and agreement protocol impose similar operating demands.

Each region is then paired with a carbon intensity for its electricity, taken from Carbon intensity of electricity generation, compiled by Our World in Data from Ember's yearly electricity data and the Energy Institute's Statistical Review of World Energy and made available under the CC BY 4.0 licence. Multiplying the electricity estimated to be consumed in a region by that region's carbon intensity, and summing across regions, gives the emissions attributable to running the network.

The disclosure separates two scopes. Scope 1 covers emissions from sources the operators of the infrastructure control directly, such as fuel burned on site; for a network of this kind, whose nodes are ordinary servers in rented facilities, this is normally nil or immaterial, and a zero figure reflects the absence of such sources rather than an omission. Scope 2 covers the indirect emissions embodied in the electricity those machines purchase, and is where essentially the whole footprint of this network falls.

Greenhouse gas intensity follows the same marginal logic as its energy counterpart: it expresses the emissions associated with one additional transaction rather than an average obtained by dividing an annual total by throughput. Because validators consume electricity at a fairly steady rate whether or not blocks are full, the marginal figure is small and is not a proxy for the footprint of the network as a whole. Both the absolute emissions and the intensity figure are sensitive to the grid statistics underlying them, which are revised as national energy reporting is updated.
