1. The concept of 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
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 a distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions, and uses cryptography design 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
mining machine is a tool for procing and mining bitcoin

Bitcoin mining machine is a kind of computer used to earn bitcoin. This kind of computer generally has professional mining chips and works in the way of burning graphics card, which consumes a lot of power. It is one of the ways to get bitcoin that users download software from personal computer and then run specific algorithm to get corresponding bitcoin after communicating with remote server

mining is actually a competition of performance and equipment, and a competition of computing power among miners. Miners with more computing power are more likely to dig bitcoin. With the increase of computing power in the whole network, it is more and more difficult to dig bits with traditional devices (CPU, GPU). People have developed chips specially used for mining. Chip is the core part of mining machine. The process of chip operation will proce a lot of heat, in order to cool down, bitcoin miner is generally equipped with heat sink and fan

< H2 > extended materials:

bitcoin is a kind of virtual currency. Bitcoin mining system is the process of carrying out mathematical operation for bitcoin network through computer hardware. Miners who provide services can get a reward, because the network reward is calculated according to the tasks completed by miners, so the competition for mining is very fierce

bitcoin mining started with low-cost hardware such as CPU or GPU, but with the popularity of bitcoin, the mining process has changed greatly. Nowadays, the mining activities are transferred to the field programmable gate array, and the hash speed can be achieved through optimization. The mining efficiency of this mode is very high

Mine pool refers to:

as the computing level of the whole bitcoin network continues to rise exponentially, a single device or a small amount of computing power can not get the block reward provided by the bitcoin network on the bitcoin network

after the computing power of the whole network has been improved to a certain extent, the low probability of getting rewards has prompted some geeks on "bitcoin talk" to develop a method that can combine a small amount of computing power and operate jointly, and the website established in this way is called "mine pool"

extended data:

the existence of the mine pool reces the difficulty of bitcoin and other virtual digital currency mining, reces the mining threshold, and truly realizes the bitcoin mining concept that everyone can participate in

but its disadvantages are also very obvious, because computing power is connected to the mine pool. As a mine pool, it will have huge computing power resources. In the bitcoin world, computing power represents the bookkeeping right, and computing power is everything. If the computing power of a single mine pool reaches more than 50%, it will be easy to launch 51% attacks against virtual digital currencies such as bitcoin, The consequences are very terrible:

the mine pool can make the mine pool with 49% of the remaining computing power have no harvest, instantly quit the competition and go bankrupt. The mine pool's computing power exceeds 50%. If 51% attack is launched, it will easily occupy all the effective computing power of the whole network

4. 1050ti has a bit more than 12 computing power by default, which has nothing to do with software. If you want to improve the computing power, you need to download a micro star small aircraft software to overclock. Samsung video memory can overclock to about 15.5

5. Because indivial mining is difficult to meet the demand, the global computing power is increasing, and it is difficult for a single device or a small amount of computing power to dig bitcoin again. It is also a combination of a large number of mining machines to form a mine pool. The computing power of the mine pool is very powerful, and it can also ensure that virtual currency can be g more quickly. So how can the mine pool dig? Let's have a look
how to mine a mine pool
the location of a mine pool is also very particular. It's not that a mine pool can be built anywhere, but it needs early-stage capital investment. A mine pool is to combine a single mining machine together. Because of the collection of many miners' computing power, the computing power of the mine pool accounts for a large proportion, and the probability of digging bitcoin is higher. The mine pool will distribute rewards according to the contribution value of each equipment
there are many mines all over the world, and the scale of each mine varies from big to small. Generally, small mines no longer have great advantages. Large mines have many miners for mining. For each miner, he can join any mine or join multiple mines at the same time, The first task of the mine pool is to distribute the income to the miners
(1) PPLNs method
this method gathers the shares g by all miners together. Whenever a certain amount of shares is accumulated (generally 30 million shares), the mine pool will allocate the profits of the previous stage to the miners according to the proportion of contribution
in this way, the income of miners depends entirely on the time needed to dig 30 million shares in the mine pool. If you are lucky, you can dig them in a short time, then the income of miners will be more, otherwise it will be less. In return, the pool charges a 3% tax
(2) PPS mode
for users, the income of this mode is relatively stable
the profit mainly depends on the miner's mining speed. As long as the mining speed is stable, the corresponding profit can be obtained, and the profit is real-time, that is, the mine pool will pay the profit for the miner while the miner is running
obviously, every time a block is calculated, the mine pool has paid for all the miners. If the block fails in the subsequent confirmation link, all the losses will be paid by the pool operator. Therefore, this method reces the risk of the miners, but transfers the risk to the pool operator
therefore, usually the ore pool can charge a handling fee to make up for the possible losses caused by these risks. In this mode, the tax of the ore pool is 7.5%
the above is about how to mine. The difficulty of mining has greatly increased, but the mining army is expanding. If the basic equipment does not meet the standard, it will be difficult to gain in the mining instry, because the value of the virtual currency may not be equal to the price of an equipment, and many miners are not just digging bitcoin, Instead, we choose other virtual currencies to mine.

6. Mining is actually competing for the right to pack in the block
as tens of thousands of miners compete for the right to pack, the probability of a single miner seizing the right to pack is very small, and the output is very unstable. It is possible to grab the right once an hour or not once a year
in order to stabilize the mining output, miners often choose to join the mining pool. The mining pool integrates the computing power of a large number of miners and occupies a certain share in the total computing power of the whole network, so as to obtain a more stable mining output. After charging 2% ~ 4% of the pool handling charge, the output is distributed to the miners according to the miners' computing power
it's just like that it's hard for one person to win the lottery, so the mine pool organizes many people to buy the lottery together, and after winning the lottery, they are distributed to everyone according to the amount of contribution.

1、 Mining principle

at the beginning, we could dig bitcoin with the computer CPU. The founder of bitcoin, Nakamoto Tsung, g out the world's first creation block with his computer CPU. However, the era of CPU mining has long passed, and now bitcoin mining is the era of ASIC mining and large-scale cluster mining

looking back on the mining history, bitcoin mining has gone through the following five times: CPU mining → GPU mining → FPGA mining → ASIC mining → large-scale cluster mining, The mining speed changes are as follows:

CPU (20mhash / s) → GPU (400mhash / s) → FPGA (25ghash / s) → ASIC (3.5tash / s) → large scale cluster mining (3.5tash / s * x)

mining speed, which is called computing power in professional terms, that is, the ability of computer to generate hash collisions per second. In other words, how many hash collisions can our miner do per second is the calculation force. Computing power is the ability to dig bitcoin. The higher the computing power, the more bitcoin you dig, the higher the return

in the world of bitcoin, a data block is recorded about every 10 minutes. All mining computers are trying to package the data block and submit it, and the person who successfully generates the data block will get a bitcoin reward. Initially, bitcoin rewards of 50 bitcoins could be generated about every 10 minutes. But the payment is halved every four years, and now the bitcoin network can generate 25 bitcoins every 10 minutes

to successfully generate data blocks, miners need to find the effective hash value. To get the correct hash value, there is no shortcut. You can only guess. The process of guessing is the process of computer random hash collision. If you guess correctly, you will get bitcoin

Mining method: from a miner to a large-scale mine, you need to prepare a miner, a computer that can connect to the Internet, an AUC, a raspberry pie, power supply and all kinds of connecting lines, etc. The connection order of various devices is network cable - & gt; Raspberry pie - & gt; Microusb cable - & gt; AUC-> 4Pin cable - & gt; Mining machine and power supply

< EM > Figure 3: Mine Map (scale of tens of thousands of mining machines) < / EM >

nowadays, the profit space of small and medium-sized absenteeism who take one mining machine home or deploy a small family workshop (dozens of mining machines) is very limited, and the mining instry is graally concentrating on enterprises and teams with low-cost power resources and professional deployment ability

there are many factors that affect the mining revenue, such as the performance and power consumption of mining machinery, the computing power and difficulty of the whole network, the deployment and operation and maintenance capacity of the mine, the availability of low-cost electricity resources, and the currency price and policy guidance, etc. At present, excellent mining enterprises have the ability of chip research and development, a lot of computing power, professional mine deployment and operation experience, etc. in the future, resources and computing power will be more and more concentrated in these mining enterprises

2. Mine pool

in addition to the above equipment, you also need a necessary tool - mine pool. The function of the mine pool is to gather a large amount of mineral computing power, increase your probability of getting bitcoin, and at the same time, distribute your future bitcoin income to your account in advance

the simple explanation is as follows: now the bitcoin network generates a block every 10 minutes, which contains 25 bitcoins. Suppose there are 1W people in the world participating in mining, then in these 10 minutes, only one lucky person has taken these 25 bitcoins, and the others have nothing. The principle of the mine pool is that everyone mines in teams and distributes according to the agreed distribution method, so that the income of the miners' bitcoin tends to be stable and the risks of the miners are reced. Let's take the most common PPS allocation method as an example. Suppose that your computing power is 10t, and the computing power of the whole mine pool is 100t. Your computing power accounts for 1 / 10 of the total computing power of the mine pool. Suppose that the mine pool can generate 10 bitcoins a day, then you can get 1 bitcoin a day

3. Cloud computing power

in reality, the supply of mining machines often exceeds the demand, and at the same time, the delivery of mining machines needs a long waiting period. Miner installation, commissioning, maintenance and other processes are very complex, which requires a lot of energy. Miners have to enre the noise and heat of miner. For miners, the biggest cost is not these, but the high electricity charges consumed by mining. The profit space of small and medium-sized miners is getting smaller and smaller, even negative

Mining income and risk mining income can be calculated by the following formula:

Mining income = generated bitcoin * currency price - mining machinery cost - electricity fee - custody fee

if you are just a small miner, generally you only need to dect mining machinery cost and electricity fee

Mining risks are as follows:

at present, the number of bitcoin is less than 4.5 million. If we do not issue additional bitcoin, the price of bitcoin will fluctuate, and the price callback will lead to the extension of the payback cycle

feels like bitcoin

has anyone calculated how many kilowatts of electricity bitcoin miners consume every day? The answer from blockchain.info is 23 million kilowatt hours a day. This is a stunning number
the new generation of bitcoin developers will consider how to rece power consumption as an important design goal
there are two directions to achieve this goal. One is to apply computing power to a more meaningful and practical direction. For example, the design of prime currency is to apply the computing power to the search of the largest prime number, which makes the calculation results have scientific value, not just waste on Hash generation. The other is to rece the power consumption per unit of calculation
gridcoin is innovative in both directions. First of all, Gebi applies computing power to grid computing, benefiting from dozens of scientific fields, including life medicine, astronomy, materials science and so on. Secondly, the chip scrypt algorithm will soon be launched in gecoin, which will rece the overall computing power of maintaining transaction and security by about 50%. This is another important innovation of cryptocurrency so far
gridcoin contributes computing power to scientific computing through the Berkeley open network computing platform (BOINC). BOINC is one of the largest grid computing platforms in the world, The famous scientific computing projects based on this platform include
1 SETI@home : search for radio signals from alien civilizations
2 Einstein@Home : looking for the evidence of gravitational wave
3 Rosetta@home Objective: to predict and design protein structure
4. Climateprediction. Net: To study the trend of climate change
5. World Community Grid: distribution hosted by IBM In addition to its official website, BOINC can also visit China distributed computing center
gridcoin fully considers avoiding the infiltration of ASIC, and ensures that only CPU and GPU of computer can mine. Gecoin provides faster transaction confirmation: 2.5 minutes on average. Grid coin's pow algorithm uses scrypt
if the miners of gridcoin are only mining and do not contribute their computing power to BOINC scientific computing platform, the return of each block is only 5 bucks; Correspondingly, in the case of contributing computing power to BOINC, the return of each block will reach 6 to 150 RMB according to the amount of computing power contributed
the total amount of gridcoin is about 168 million, which is calculated according to 100 COINS generated by each block. The actual situation depends on the amount of computing power contributed by the whole network to scientific computing
the official launch time of gridcoin was October 16, 2013, less than two months ago. At present, the computing power is about 50MH / s, and it has increased about twice in December
gridcoin is totally different from counterfeit currency which only changes some parameters. Many senior people who have been tracking the development of cryptocurrency for a long time think that gridcoin is one of the few cryptocurrencies with innovative ability. It has long-term development potential

10. For the small miners participating in the interstellar space filecoin mine pool, it is necessary to check whether the data of the mine pool and the data on the chain are consistent, so as to avoid meeting the fund disk; The scale of the ore pool; How do you calculate the proportion of your computing power; What is the operating cost of the mine pool; When and how to distribute the output, so as to avoid being stolen by the bad ore pool.
