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.
An average beef animal weighs about 1200 (Â± 250) pounds and has a hanging hot carcass weight (HCW) of about 750 (Â± 200) pounds. In general, freezer beef is sold using HCW as the basis.Hot carcass weight represents about 63 (Â± 2) percent of live weight (dressing percent) and is affected by the length of time an animal is away from feed and water, amount of muscling, distance transported, and amount of finish.oasts vs. ground beef; use of flank steaks and brisket vs ground beef; etc.) will affect both the amount of. beef product (retail yield) and type of cuts placed into packages. A general rule of thumb for carcass beef is 25% bone and trim loss, 25% steaks, 25% roasts, and 25% ground beef.
