Total bitcoin

1.

There are only 21 million bitcoins

"graphics card mining" is a joke. In fact, it is running a specific algorithm to generate bitcoin through a large number of calculations

{rrrrrrr}

extended materials:

the concept of bitcoin was first proposed by Nakamoto in 2009. According to Nakamoto's idea, the open source software was designed and released, and the P2P network on it was constructed. Bitcoin is a kind of P2P digital currency. Point to point transmission means a decentralized payment system

unlike most currencies, bitcoin does not rely on specific currency institutions. It is generated by a large number of calculations based on specific algorithms. Bitcoin economy uses the distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions, and uses the design of cryptography to ensure the security of all aspects of currency circulation. The decentralized nature and algorithm of P2P can ensure that it is impossible to artificially manipulate the value of bitcoin through mass proction. The design based on cryptography can make bitcoin only be transferred or paid by the real owner. This also ensures the anonymity of money ownership and circulation transactions. The biggest difference between bitcoin and other virtual currencies is that the total amount of bitcoin is very limited and it has a strong scarcity. The monetary system used to have no more than 10.5 million in four years, after which the total number will be permanently limited to 21 million

bitcoin can be cashed and converted into the currency of most countries. Users can use bitcoin to buy some virtual items, such as clothes, hats and equipment in online games. As long as someone accepts it, they can also use bitcoin to buy real-life items

on February 26, 2014, Joe Manchin, a Democratic senator from West Virginia, issued an open letter to a number of regulatory authorities of the US federal government, hoping that the relevant authorities would pay attention to the status quo of bitcoin's encouraging illegal activities and disrupting the financial order, and demanded that actions be taken as soon as possible to completely ban the electronic currency

from 12:00 noon on January 24, 2017, China's three major bitcoin platforms officially began to collect transaction fees

2. The total amount remains unchanged. It's easy to understand that the total number of bitcoins will not change. Developers are public, but they don't have private ones.
but they can be divided down, and there's nothing hard to understand. I have 1 yuan in my wallet. I can also say that I have 10 Jiao, 100 Fen, 1000 Li, 10000 milli, 100000 silk, 1000000 Hu, 10000000 micro. No matter what the unit of measurement is, I will neither become richer nor buy more, nor have any impact on the economy.

The concept of 21 million

bitcoin was first proposed by Nakamoto in 2009. According to Nakamoto's idea, open source software was designed and released, and P2P network was built on it. Bitcoin is a kind of P2P digital currency. Point to point transmission means a decentralized payment system

bitcoin is not issued in unlimited quantity, which is different from most currencies. Bitcoin does not rely on a specific currency issuer. But according to the specific algorithm, through a large number of calculations. Its circulation is controlled by software algorithms. The total number is 21 million

generation principle

starting from the essence of bitcoin, the essence of bitcoin is actually the special solution generated by a bunch of complex algorithms. A special solution is one of the infinite (in fact, bitcoin is finite) solutions that can be obtained from the equations. Every particular solution can solve the equation and is unique[ 10] In the metaphor of RMB, bitcoin is the serial number of RMB. If you know the serial number of a note, you have the note. The process of mining is to constantly seek the special solution of this equation system through a huge amount of calculation. This equation system is designed to have only 21 million special solutions, so the upper limit of bitcoin is 21 million

to mine bitcoin, you can download the special bitcoin computing tools, register various cooperation websites, fill the registered user name and password into the computing program, and then click the operation to officially start. After completing the installation of bitcoin client, you can directly obtain a bitcoin address. When others pay, you only need to paste the address to others, and you can pay through the same client. After installing the bitcoin client, it will distribute a private key and a public key. You need to back up your wallet data containing your private key to ensure that your property is not lost. Unfortunately, if the hard disk is completely formatted, personal bitcoin will be completely lost

4. The total amount is 21 million, about one block is proced every 10 minutes, and the number of bitcoins in each block is 12.5 after being halved twice, that is to say, 12.5 bitcoins are proced every 10 minutes

5. Bitcoin, the process of mining is to constantly seek the special solution of this equation system through a huge amount of calculation. This equation system is designed to have only 21 million special solutions, so the upper limit of bitcoin is 21 million.

21 million. Now the price of bitcoin is almost 70000

7. One of the controversial attributes of bitcoin is its fixed supply. At present, 25 new bitcoins are proced every 10 minutes, and the number is halved every four years. Overall, there won't be more than 21 million bitcoins & gt;. On the other hand, each bitcoin can be divided into 100 million shares (each is called 1 "cong"), if one cent is enough to buy a car, it will be troublesome to trade in US dollars, but even if bitcoin rises to the level of US dollars assumed above & gt; We will not encounter such problems. Therefore, in short, the total number of monetary units that will always exist is 2100 billion, that is 2100 trillion, or 250.899. In the square of choosing this value & gt; In fact, Nakamoto is much luckier or smarter than most people realize. First of all, this number is far less than 264-1, which is the largest integer that can be stored in the form of standard integer in a computer. If it exceeds that value, & gt; The value will return to zero like a odometer
secondly, however, there is a smaller threshold for the total number of "smart": the largest possible integer that can be represented in floating-point format. Integers are not the only numbers that computers can store; To deal with decimals, computers & gt; Use a format for floating point representation. Floating point notation is essentially a binary version of scientific notation. For example, here is a value you will encounter when you study physics:
mass of the earth: 5.972 1024 kg
mass of the sun: 1.989 1030 kg
speed of light: 2.998 108 M / s
light year: 9.460 1015 m
mass of proton: 1.672 10-27 kg
Planck length: 1.616 10-35 m
we can notice that, How does scientific notation allow you to represent all of these values with reasonable accuracy, even though they vary greatly in size. Floating point notation is essentially a binary scientific notation; When you store numbers & gt; When the word is 9.625, what your computer stores is "1.001101
* 1011" (in other words, it stores 0100000000100011
& gt; This is the same thing with high-precision sequence form). In this high-precision form, the coefficient (that is, the part that is not the exponent) has 52 bits. This means high precision (more refined & gt; Double precision floating point number is enough to store up to 253 numbers, but it can't be any higher. If it exceeds 253, you have to start cutting off the numbers at the end. Bitcoin's 250.9, the total number of "smart" in the form of index, is just & gt; OK, below this maximum
if we have integers, why should we care about floating-point values? Because more high-level programming languages (such as JavaScript) do not open low-level "floating point" and "integer representation", but only provide "number" representation for programmers; Concepts
– of course, in floating-point form. If Nakamoto chose 210 million instead of 21 million at that time, bitcoin programming in many languages would be much more troublesome than it is now
note that Stefan Thomas unfortunately didn't notice this in time when he wrote bitcoinjs, so that the library used a special "big number big
number" object instead of an ordinary number to store the tutorial output value; My own bifurcated bitcoin JS (along with other improvements) uses ordinary numbers.

8. Complete mining route:

1-75: copper mine will be found in the birthplace
75-125: segenite in wetland, tin ore and igneous ore (in spider hole)
125-175: alx highland, Nano iron mine (walking along the mountains)
175-245: there are two choices
① in the three holes of Filas: each hole basically has 3-4 secret silver
② it is mainly concentrated in the east of the wilderness, where there are JY Dragons: there are iron, secret silver and real silver
you can practice until 245
245: go to the fat man hole above LM stronghold, there are black iron, Se silver and secret silver, A lot of them have been trained until 275
275: you can dig fuser silver and start to make money. Ha ha
there are also two choices
①: East plague, there are five points to brush fuser silver on the Internet, And the chance of getting out of arcane crystal is high
②: go to the hole of the three JY worms in xlss (LR DZ small D is recommended) and each of them has 4-6 fuser silver

after 300, you can mix in Outland to 375!

9. No, these bitcoins are just out of circulation. The total amount remains unchanged
