1.

The remitter will pay bitcoin directly to the other party according to the address of the payee through the computer or smart phone

after the transaction data of bitcoin is packaged into a "data block" or "block", the transaction is initially confirmed. When a block is linked to a previous block, the transaction is further confirmed. After six block confirmations in a row, the transaction was irreversibly confirmed

the bitcoin peer-to-peer network stores all transaction history in the "blockchain". The blockchain continues to extend, and once new blocks are added to the blockchain, they will not be removed. In fact, blockchain is a distributed database composed of a group of scattered client nodes and all participants, which is a record of all bitcoin transaction history


extended data

users can buy bitcoin, and at the same time, they can "mine" bitcoin by using computers to perform a large number of calculations according to the algorithm. When users "mine" bitcoin, they need to use the computer to search for 64 bit numbers, and then compete with other gold miners by repeatedly solving puzzles to provide the required numbers for the bitcoin network. If the user's computer successfully creates a set of numbers, then they will get 25 bitcoins

from 2012 to 2014, bitcoin swept the world, and graally formed the "virtual currency" instry chain represented by bitcoin. This is a change in the financial instry and a new proct of the combination of the financial instry and the Internet. It represents a financial milestone in the new era and marks a new chapter in the history of the Internet. Bitcoin fund is one of the derivative procts represented by bitcoin in the era of "virtual currency"

according to the relevant news reports of Fuhui China, bitcoin fund will be open for operation in the autumn of 2014. Fuhui bitcoin fund, as the world's first operation mode of mutual benefit and win-win with financial management mode, is original and full of temptation and challenge

2. 1. Using bitcoin mining machine to obtain bitcoin
mining is the only way to obtain undeveloped bitcoin, which needs to purchase professional mining equipment for mining, which is called mining machine in the instry
bitcoin miner obtains bitcoin through a lot of calculation through hash algorithm. As we all know, the number of bitcoin is constant, 21 million. As time goes on, the number of miners increases and the number of miners decreases.
the difficulty of bitcoin system is dynamically adjusted. Every 2016 bitcoin is g, an adjustment will be made, The adjustment is based on the block time of the previous 2016 blocks. If the average block time of the previous cycle is less than 10 minutes, it will increase the difficulty. If it is more than 10 minutes, it will rece the difficulty. The purpose is to ensure that the system can output a block every 10 minutes, so the difficulty adjustment time is about 2 weeks (2016 * 10 minutes), that is to say, the output will be halved every four years, And the difficulty will be adjusted every 14 days, so the general trend seems that the output of mining will be less and less
2. Purchasing power for bitcoin
after the prevalence of mining, there are some bitcoin mines, that is, multiple mining machines are concentrated in one place for mining, unified maintenance and management, low electricity price, to rece the cost of mining
the most important parameter of bitcoin mining machine is computing power. The higher the computing power is, the higher the output will be. In the difficulty of bitcoin mining, how much bitcoin can be g with 1t computing power is also used to measure the current difficulty of mining. Therefore, some mines will directly sell computing power to users to dig coins. In this way, the mining risk is relatively lower, and there is no need to buy mining machines and equipment, and no need to maintain them, The maintenance and management of mining machine is relatively troublesome for Xiao
3. Reward for bitcoin
with the rising price of bitcoin, bitcoin has gained more popularity than before, and its position in virtual currency is also unmatched by other currencies. There are some real procts of reward bitcoin mechanism in the market, and cat disk is one of them< The simplest way to get bitcoin is to find the person who holds bitcoin to buy bitcoin, which is equivalent to buying goods. But bitcoin is not required by everyone. Therefore, it is necessary to find the person who holds bitcoin and carry out direct transfer transaction. At the same time, there are certain risks, The other side needs indivials to grasp whether they are cheaters or not, so I don't recommend such transactions on the basis of not being acquaintances or not having certain trust
2. Online trading
there are many trading platforms for bitcoin, large or small. At present, the relatively large and well-known trading platforms are Huo coin, coin security, okex, uto market,... And so on. These platforms are more convenient and safe as three-party guarantee transactions, and the only risk is platform running, But the possibility is relatively small, but some small platforms are not without security
3. In order to understand the technical principle of bitcoin, we need to understand two important cryptographic techniques: hash code: it converts a long string into a fixed length string, and its conversion is irreversible, that is, it is impossible to guess the original string from hash code. Sha256 is mainly used in bitcoin protocol
public key system: corresponds to a public key and a private key, keeps the private key in the application and publishes the public key. When Party A transmits information to Party B, it can use Party A's private key to encrypt the information, and Party B can use Party A's public key to decrypt the information, so as to ensure that the third party cannot impersonate Party A to send the information; At the same time, when Party A transmits information to Party B, it is encrypted with Party B's public key and sent to Party B, and then Party B decrypts it with his own private key, so as to ensure that the third party cannot eavesdrop on the communication between the two people. RSA is the most common public key system, but the lliptic curve digital signature algorithm is used in bitcoin protocol. What's the difference between cash and bank account? Bitcoin is an electronic currency in BTC. In this article, it is also used to refer to the whole bitcoin system. Like opening an account in a bank, the corresponding concept in bitcoin is address. Everyone can have one or more bitcoin addresses, which are used to pay and collect money. Each address is a string that starts with 1. For example, I have two bitcoin accounts, and. A bitcoin account is uniquely determined by a pair of public key and private key. To save the account, you only need to save the private key file. Unlike bank accounts, banks keep all transaction records and maintain the book balance of each account, while bitcoin's transaction records are jointly maintained by the whole P2P network through a pre agreed protocol. How much money is in my account address? Although the current account balance can be seen by bitcoin software, unlike banks, there is no place to maintain the book balance of each address. It can only calculate the account balance in real time through all historical transactions. How do I pay? When I pay from address a to address B of the other party, the payment amount is e. at this time, both parties will announce the transaction information to each network node, telling address a to pay to address B, and the payment amount is e. In order to prevent the third party from forging the transaction information, the transaction information will be encrypted with the private key of address A. at this time, the network node receiving the transaction information can use the public key of address a to verify that the transaction information is indeed sent by address a. Of course, trading software will help us do these things, we just need to input the relevant parameters in the software. What will the network node do after receiving the transaction information? This is the most important part of the bitcoin system, which needs to be elaborated. For the sake of simplicity, only bitcoin protocol has been implemented. In the current version, each network node will save all transaction information synchronously. There are two kinds of transaction information in history, one is & quot; Verified & quot; The transaction information, that is, the verified transaction information, is stored in a series of "blocks". Each & quot; block" Is the previous & quot; bock" The ID of each block is the hash code of the hash code of the block and the new transaction information (see an actual block). The other category refers to those who also & quot; Unverified & quot; The transaction information just paid above belongs to this category. When a network node receives new unverified transaction information (possibly more than one), it can calculate the book balance of each address at that time because the node keeps all the transaction information in history, so it can calculate whether the transaction information is valid, that is, whether there is enough balance in the payment account. After eliminating the invalid transaction information, it first takes out the last & quot; block" Then, the unverified transaction information is combined with the ID, and a verification code is added to form a new "block". It needs a lot of calculation to build a new block, because it needs to calculate the verification code, so that the above combination becomes a block, that is, the first several bits of the hash code of the block are 1. At present, the first 13 bits need to be 1 (generally, the specific method is uncertain), which means that if the block is generated by enumeration method, the average number of enumerations is 16 ^ 13. Using CPU resources to generate a block is called "gold mining", because the proction of the block will get a certain reward, and the reward information has been included in the block. When a network node generates a new block, it will broadcast to other network nodes. However, this network block may not be accepted by the network, because it is possible that other network nodes have proced the block earlier. Only the earliest block or the block with the largest number of subsequent blocks is valid, and the remaining blocks are no longer used as the initial blocks of the next block. How does the other party confirm that the payment is successful? When the payment information is distributed to the network node, the network node begins to calculate whether the transaction is valid (that is, whether the account balance is enough to pay), and attempts to generate blocks containing the transaction information. When six blocks (one direct block and five subsequent blocks) contain the transaction information, the transaction information is considered "verified", so that the transaction is formally confirmed, and the other party can confirm the successful payment. A possible problem is that I will pay the balance of address a to address B, and at the same time pay to address C. If I only verify that the single comparison transaction is valid. At this point, my way of cheating is to generate six blocks including B to B and six blocks including C to C before the truth is revealed. Because I need a very long CPU time to generate a block, compared with the whole network, the probability of my cheating success is very small. What is the motivation of network nodes to proce blocks? As can be seen from the above description, in order to make the transaction information effective, the network node needs to generate 1 and 5 subsequent blocks to contain the transaction information, and such block generation is very CPU intensive. How to let other network nodes help to proce blocks as soon as possible? The answer is very simple. The agreement stipulates that BTC will be rewarded for the address where the block is proced, as well as the Commission promised by both parties. At present, the reward for procing a block is 50btc, which will be halved every four years in the future. For example, the reward will be 25btc from 2013 to 2016. Is the transaction anonymous? Yes, and No. All bitcoin transactions are visible. We can check all transaction records of each account, such as mine. But what's different from the banking monetary system is that everyone's account itself is anonymous, and everyone can open many accounts. In general, anonymity is not as good as it claims. But bitcoin has another advantage in doing black market trading: it can't be frozen. Even if the police trace a bitcoin address, there is nothing they can do unless they trace the computer used by the exchange based on the Internet address. How to ensure that bitcoin does not depreciate? Generally speaking, in the case of equivalent trading activities, the value of money is inversely proportional to the amount of money issued. Unlike the traditional money market, the central bank can determine the amount of money issued. Bitcoin does not have a central issuing institution. Only by procing blocks can we get a certain amount of BTC currency. Therefore, bitcoin's new amount of money depends on: 1. The speed of procing blocks: bitcoin's agreement stipulates that the difficulty of procing blocks is fixed at an average of 2016 every two weeks, about 10 minutes. Moore's law of doubling CPU speed every 18 months will not speed up the proction of block. 2. The number of rewards for block proction: at present, 50 BTC is awarded for each block proced, which is halved every four years. In 2013, 25 BTC is awarded, and in 2017, 12.5 BTC is awarded. Considering the above two factors, bitcoin's currency issuing speed is not controlled by any single node in the network. Its protocol makes the currency stock known in advance, and the maximum stock is only 21 million BTC
4. Bitcoin transaction refers to the transfer between an address and another address, which usually requires an additional service charge to miners

generally, an ordinary bitcoin transaction is composed of one input and two outputs, with the size of about 200 bytes. The default charge is 0.0001btc for every 1000 bytes, and the ordinary bitcoin transfer fee is about 0.001-0.002btc

however, e to the limited capacity of the block to hold transaction records, miners generally give priority to the transaction with higher handling charges. Therefore, when the transaction needs urgent confirmation, it is recommended to select custom charges. I also saw these in Yingfu College of Finance and economics.
5. It is often said that you can send bitcoin to any corner of the earth for free. Generally, you can transfer bitcoin for free, but in some cases, you have to pay transaction fees to complete the transfer. In version 0.8.3 bitcoin wallet, the default is 0.0001 bitcoin transfer fees. This service charge is awarded to miners to encourage them to continue mining and provide enough computing power for bitcoin to ensure the security of bitcoin network. At present, the main income of miners is to get 25btc reward by creating new blocks, but this reward is halved every four years. As time goes on, bitcoin transaction fee reward will graally replace the reward for creating new blocks. Under what circumstances do you need to pay the handling charge? How much does bitcoin charge? What is the handling charge? Bitcoin system has a series of network rules, including fee rules, which are "what the client should do". When you use bitcoin client (wallet, bitcoin QT) to send bitcoin, the whole process is roughly divided into the following steps:
1. Prepare the bitcoin you want to send. The client is responsible for collecting the balance of bitcoin in your wallet (bitcoin QT) to prepare for payment, because every bitcoin you receive is stored in your wallet until you spend it. If you receive two payments from 3btc and 2btc, their records in the wallet are independent of each other, that is, a 3btc and a 2btc, rather than merging them into 5btc (the wallet only records transaction details and does not merge the balance, but you can see the total balance on the interface of the wallet). As time goes on, many bitcoins of different amounts will accumulate in your wallet, So when you send bitcoin, the wallet has to decide which bitcoin is the most suitable for this sending. The bitcoin you get in a transaction is called "inputs" and the bitcoin you spend is called "outputs". There are multiple inputs and outputs in your wallet
2. If your outputs are less than 0.01btc (including the fund changes inside your wallet), you have to pay a handling charge of 0.0001, even if you transfer it to yourself. The wallet has an established rule when preparing your payment amount, that is, when preparing the payment amount in many inputs, try to avoid the amount change less than 0.01btc (for example, if you want to pay 5.005btc, the wallet should choose 3 + 2.005 or 1 + 1 + 3.005 instead of 5 + 0.005)
3. The larger the amount, the higher the age, and the higher the priority. If the amount you send is too small or your bitcoin has just been mined, then your transfer is no longer free. Each transaction will be assigned a priority, which is determined by the degree of currency, the number of bytes and the number of transactions. Specifically, for each input, the client will first multiply the number of bitcoins by the time they exist in the block (currency age, age), and then divide all the procts by the size of the transaction (in bytes). The calculation formula is: priority = sum (input)_ value_ in_ base_ units * input_ age)/size_ in_ If the calculation result is less than 0.576, then the transaction must pay the handling fee. If you do have a large amount of small input and want to transfer it out for free, you can add a large amount of bitcoin with a large age, which will increase the average priority, so that you can transfer out bitcoin for free
4. Charge per kilobyte. At the end of the transfer, the client will detect the size of the transfer (in bytes). The size generally depends on the amount of input and output. The calculation formula is as follows: 148 * input amount + 34 * output amount + 10. If the size of the transfer exceeds 10000 bytes, but the priority meets the free standard, you can still enjoy the free transfer, Otherwise, there will be a handling charge. The cost of 1000 bytes is 0.0001btc by default, but you can also add it in the client. Open the tab "settings & gt; Options & gt; The main purpose is to adjust the handling charge. If the service charge you are setting is less than 0.0001, BTC is calculated as 0.0001.
6. In China, it's mainly about the sale of bitcoin. You can flush RMB to the trading platform, and then buy bitcoin on the platform, or sell it directly on the platform. But now the main use of recharge agent. Domestic: bitcoin China, money net, okcoin, 796. Abroad: bitstamp, btc-e and bitfinex. At present, the price of national bitcoin is a little more than 2400, while that of external bitcoin is less than 400 US dollars.
7. At present, there are several ways for bitcoin Trading:
1) offline trading is possible, but this way is not popular
2) the mainstream practice is to trade on the trading platform, now there are many such platforms, niucoin.com
