Re:Blake3 is 10 times faster than SHA-2 by nneonneo on Saturday January 11, 2020 @07:45PM (#22023559)
The Bitcoin network can perform some 10^20 SHA-256 hashes per second. That’s one 11-character upper/lowercase alphanumeric password PER SECOND.

A practical password cracking rig can probably do upwards of 10^11 hashes per second. The same rig can only do 10^5 bcrypt hashes per second.
