The cardinality of the continuum is a cardinal number. It’s one of the alephs. It is not known which aleph it is. So it’s not known what the cardinality of the powerset of the naturals is. It’s just known that it is the same cardinal number of the reals. Basically, we have two jars of marbles that contain the same number of marbles but it’s not known how many marbles that is.
