Etc computing power
The calculation power of mining is as shown in the figure below. This is a little old. At present, vega64 is the fastest. However, considering the price, the best choice is rx570 and 560. The cheapest rx574 is 1599, and the cheapest vega64 is 4800. In terms of calculation power, 570 is 22.6, vega64 is higher than 1080ti, even 34. However, as you can see, three rx570 = one vega64, but in terms of calculation power, 22.6 * 3 = 67.8, basically at the same price, 570 can be exchanged for twice the mining capacity of vega64
rx560, computing power is 11.6, price is 800, 6 pieces 560 = 1 vega64, computing power is 69.6, also has twice the mining capacity of vega64
a brief history of etheric Classics (etc)
etheric classics began with an unfortunate event
in May 2016, the decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) held a token sale with the goal of establishing a blockchain based venture capital to fund future decentralized applications (dapps) in the Ethereum ecosystem
basically, Dao is a complex smart contract that operates in a decentralized way - computer code that automatically performs tasks between multiple parties when conditions are met
despite its ambitious goals and successful token sales, Dao's code has a major vulnerability that allows attackers to steal eth from decentralized organizations
the attacker took advantage of this vulnerability in June 2016, triggering the infamous Dao hacking event, and maliciously stole eth worth about US $50 million
there is no doubt that Dao hacking has shocked Ethereum community and made eth price drop from $20 to $13
after the Dao hacking, the Ethereum community has to choose from three options
< UL >do nothing and try to bear the consequences of the attack; Or
start soft bifurcation to recover funds; Or
deploy a hard fork to recover the lost eth
both soft and hard bifurcations are significant network upgrades. However, soft fork allows users who are not upgraded to communicate with upgraded users, while hard fork is not backward compatible with previous versions
as developers realize that deploying soft forks will expose the network to distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks, Ethereum community decides to initiate hard forks to recover the funds lost in Dao hacking attacks
although this scheme is supported by most people, a small number of people in Ethereum community oppose it. They think that "code is the law" and blockchain network should be unchangeable
the failure of both sides to reach an agreement on the solution eventually led to the fragmentation of Ethereum blockchain
those who tried to recover the lost eth chose the hard fork and opened the Ethereum (ETH) blockchain as we know it today, while another group stayed on the original Ethereum classic (etc) chain
what problems does ethereal classic solve
Ethernet classic (etc) is a blockchain platform that allows developers to deploy smart contracts and dapps
although this function is the same as Ethereum (ETH), etc blockchain has two main differences
first of all, Ethereum classic community opposes tampering with distributed ledger and supports the view that "blockchain network cannot and should not be modified"
secondly, although there is no rigid upper limit on the total supply of eth, it is allowed to create 230 million etc at most by adopting the monetary policy of constant supply
as a bonus item, ethereal classic launched Atlantis hard bifurcation last year to increase the interaction with Ethereum and improve the privacy protection of transactions through ZK snarks
the trading platforms recommended by etc
hot money, okex, AAX, etc
cloud chain is the first risk protection platform in the world to guarantee the blockchain world. In the cloud insurance chain platform, each user can use CIC token to complete the whole risk hedging process of insurance, underwriting and automatic claim settlement. The cloud insurance chain guarantees the intelligent contract to realize the automation of claims settlement, at the same time to disintermediate the guarantee of the blockchain world, which greatly reces the trust cost and operation cost. On February 5, okex, the world's largest digital currency trading platform, announced the global launch of cloud insurance chain (CIC), and opened the trading markets of CIC / BTC, CIC / Eth and CIC / usdt.
When driving on high speed, we all know that it is very convenient to install an etc, because it can pass through the toll intersection quickly without parking. This also saves a lot of time for the majority of car owners, because sometimes if we stop and then go to pay, it may delay some valuable time{ RRRRR}
in fact, sometimes I think this kind of equipment is very convenient, but the conditions in various aspects may not be very mature now, so sometimes it will lead to a wrong dection. In life, our car owners may feel very troublesome. We should protect our own interests. Even if your money is dected, you should respond in time. Or upgrade the system
in November, the market value of iota soared more than 8 times, leaping to the top four in the digital currency list, successfully beating the old digital currency reborn. Iota mainly serves the Internet of things, and the point of speculation is also the Internet of things, and the Internet of things is also a popular concept in the past two years, so it is reasonable for the price of iota to soar. However, as an old digital currency, etc has begun to test the Internet of things as a breakthrough. So, as the two giants in the field of Internet of things, who can stand out in the future competition? Let's make a simple comparison
etc is the built-in encrypted digital currency of the original Ethereum chain, and the system has been running stably for a long time. Its core development team is composed of technical experts with rich experience in blockchain development. The decision-making and implementation of its technical scheme are democratic and scientific. The technology used by iota is similar to lightning network and lightning network. Lightning network technology itself is a more avant-garde technology. Bitcoin core development group first proposed to use lightning network technology to solve the problem of bitcoin expansion, but it has only stayed in the theoretical stage and has not been put into practice. The community generally believes that this technology is lack of practical test and its stability needs to be tested
The cryptography theory and principle used byetc has been widely used in other IT fields and has been verified and optimized for a long time. It is a mature, safe, reliable and efficient information technology. Iota uses balanced ternary (numerical system represented by three digits) on binary hardware devices, which leads to the design of the system is too complex and the computational efficiency is reced. Another serious problem of this design is that the cryptographic hash algorithm must be redesigned, which brings serious security risks. In short, this technology is still in the theoretical stage, too avant-garde, does not have the value of practical application
the issuance of etc is completely decentralized, the currency price is not easy to be manipulated, and the new monetary policy will be implemented soon, which will guarantee the upper limit of the issuance of etc from the system and make it a compact digital currency, so as to ensure its value storage attribute. Iota is an ICO project in 2014, which has always been neither hot nor hot. A large number of iota tokens are in the hands of a few people, and the price is easy to be manipulated, which is one of the reasons why the price has increased eight times in less than a month. This trend of centralization is very disadvantageous to the long-term development of the community. Iota does not need to mine, there is no transaction fee, each participant provides computing power for the network, and there is no corresponding incentive measures, which is extremely unfavorable to the stability of iota network
iota uses tangle technology, which is not a real blockchain, but just to solve the problem of blockchain expansion. Blockchain is just a cover for iota. Therefore, iota as a technology can be used in the Internet of things, but it can not be used as a digital currency
compared with iota's blind pursuit of new technology, new concept and new theory, etc is more keen on mature and stable technology and continuous innovation under the premise of safety and stability. The Internet of things is also one of the biggest application scenarios of etc. The etc development team has started to develop the Internet of things friendly virtual machine, making it universal, independent and efficient
in addition, in order to make better use of IOT applications, etc community has reached a consensus and made a development plan of cross chain operation function. In view of the increasing transaction data in the field of Internet of things, the fragmentation technology and side chain technology are designed to ensure the security and improve the efficiency. The goal of etcdev team is to make etc blockchain a stable and easy-to-use technology. It's better to slow down the development progress than to do some rash experiments to prevent irretrievable errors from causing users' losses in the future
In a word, etc is more like a stable and easy-to-use technology, while iota is more like a rash experiment. The most important thing for large-scale application of technology is to be stable and easy to use, rather than blindly pursuing new concepts and technologies. Therefore, etc has the incomparable universality of iota, and has stronger application support ability in the field of Internet of things
