Last updated 2nd April 2014. In 2009, Satoshi Nakamoto launched bitcoin as the world's first cryptocurrency. The code is open source, which means it can be modified by anyone and freely used for other projects. Many cryptocurrencies have launched with modified versions of this code, with varying levels of success. Litecoin was announced in 2011 with the goal of being the 'silver' to bitcoin's 'gold'. At the time of writing, Litecoin has the highest market cap of any mined cryptocurrency, after bitcoin. Here's our guide to show you the crucial difference between bitcoin and litecoin.
An average hanging weight for a half of a beef is 400 pounds. Standard-cut processing results in an approximately 38% yield loss. So if you have the beef âstandard-cutâ, you would expect to take home approximately 248 pounds of packaged meat.
The average dressing of beef animals from live weight to carcass weight is 63 percent with a range of 61-66 percent. Beef heifers (62 percent) and dairy beef steers (56-61 percent) will typically be a little lower than that.There are five yield grades for beef carcasses: 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.00. **Half of a half is when the cuts from the hind quarter (round and loin) are mixed with cuts from the forequarter (chuck and rib) for each customer. In terms of how much freezer space will be needed, the general rule is one cubic foot per 35-40 pounds of packaged meat.
