Cryptocurrency mining processes always lead to a high energy consumption at considerably high production cost, which is nearly one-third of cryptocurrency (e.g. Bitcoin) price itself. As the core of mining process is based on SHA-256 cryptographic hashing function, by using the alternative quantum computers, hybrid quantum computers or more larger quantum computing devices like quantum annealers, it would be possible to reduce the mining energy consumption with a quantum hardware’s low-energy-operation characteristics. Within this work we demonstrated the use of optimized quantum mining facilities which would replace the classical SHA-256 and high energy consuming classical hardware in near future.
