Feb 15, 2016 at 8:58 comment added Maarten Bodewes The latter then, thought it was a bit curious. It would be interesting to know what the authors think of this. According to their own paper they didn't test their findings in the field, so if they made any miscalculations then those will be reflected in the conclusions.

Update with considerations on power further lowering the potential gain, and a possible explanation of the low number of adders considered by the authors
Feb 15, 2016 at 5:39 comment added fgrieu @Maarten Bodewes: I hit the thing reading Slashdot, wondered if that was believable, could not debunk the claim in half an hour, and asked the question with no precise argument against the claim. I have no connection (to my knowledge) or business/academic interest with that scientific paper, its authors, their institution, the subject, or bitcoin mining; the closest thing is that I had training on logic design decades ago, and vaguely remember Ripple Carry Adders versus Carry Lookhead Adders.
