[Star Trek:TNG] How long would it take for Cmdr. Data to mine 1 bitcoin? What about the Enterprise-D?

Data has stated that he performs 60 trillion Operations Per Second.  

According to Federation records, "hashes" are used to determine the mining rate of bitcoins.  It takes about 2,700,000,000,000,000 hashes or 2.7 million gigahashes to mine a single Bitcoin.

A gigahash is approximately equal to 1.3 trillion operations per second.^1  2.7 million gigahashes times 1.3 trillions operations per second gives us a staggering 3,510,000,000,000,000,000 or 3.51 quintillion operations that need to be performed before a single bitcoin is mined.

Since Data can perform about 60 trillions operations per second, it would take him 58,500 seconds or 16.25 hours to mine a bitcoin.

^1 **Note**: this is an approximation, and shouldn't be taken as the standard.  Hashes don't actually use opeartions per second for their calculations.
