Digital currency hedging
first line: mining, mining machine, mine (ore pool)
all three are related to mining, but they are also different
Mining: we don't discuss the technical details here. From the perspective of profit, mining has the lowest threshold. Even if we need professional mining machinery now, we can still buy a mining machine to make money. If we become bigger, we can open a mine. Without talking about the risk, mining is the simplest way to make money. The investment cost is low, the rate of return is high, and the time cost is high
mining machinery: the business of manufacturing mining machinery is very hot, and there is a high threshold, so it is difficult for non professionals to become manufacturers. Ant mining machine in the bull market does not worry about selling. Especially after 1994, as far as I know, foreign domestic ore feeders were towed away by trucks. However, the threshold of manufacturers is already very high, and it is difficult for ordinary people to get in touch with them, so there are two dealers. Mining business contact is not much, the second-hand market seems to be very chaotic
mines (ore pools) of course, mines and ore pools are inseparable. Why? The mine pool exists in order to avoid the risk of the mine. The mine pool will pay the cost of the miners according to the time according to the calculation force. Of course, it also needs to draw a percentage, and the miners will be able to keep their income from drought and flood. But the only thing to do is to bring people to the mine. Offline mines are also managed by their own machines, and can also be managed by others. There is a certain threshold, risk and income coexist
second line: information platform, exchange, wallet, currency speculation
consulting platform: something that must exist in the Internet era, providing information and consulting aggregation. The first thing new people come into contact with is information media. In the 17 years since the outbreak of digital currency, bitcoin's Internet search index has exploded. Many people want to know about digital currency, so such an information platform is sure to survive. Drainage, content, value realization and value extension are generally the ways of making profits
exchange: the best understanding is that all flows and proction currencies are for trading. Only when a transaction has a price can it be valued. Many problems will also be found in the transaction, such as the famous "bitcoin expansion". Only by finding and solving problems can the instry develop better. We all know the mode of making money in the exchange. It's the makers who make money. It's just like casinos and securities dealers. They lose more money and earn less, but the exchange is stable. In addition to the handling charges, it seems that the money charge is also a profit model. The threshold of the exchange is also high. In addition to trading risk and platform risk, it pays more attention to policy dynamics. Big exchanges now have "currency exchange", "fire currency" and so on
wallets: both hot and cold wallets are procts, and coin circles are just needed for this kind of procts. Online wallet is generally free, and then through other ways to make money, such as usually do exchanges, or there are investment activities
currency speculation: simple speculation, uncontrollable risk, too many factors affecting the price. We can envy the good luck of others, but we should not hope that we have such good luck. Therefore, there are generally three modes of currency speculation, which can be more "smart" to avoid risks: 1. Fixed investment 2. Quantitative trading 3. Arbitrage: spot move brick, futures arbitrage. Now, it seems that there is a fourth kind of profit margin in the OTC channel.
in addition, we need to meet the two conditions of good liquidity and low transaction cost
therefore, the most suitable one is: USD EUR JPY aud GBP CHF CAD, in which the prices of any three currencies are compared with each other
then put it into practice. The internationally popular algorithmic trading and arbitrage hedging are dominated by big investment banks, which rely on the computing power competition of computer groups and even servers. Some investment banks even spend a lot of money to move the whole company close to the exchange in order to pursue a little advantage in network speed. The EA you studied is the most rough, backward and simple algorithm. It really has no future.
blockchain blockchain is a new application mode of computer technology such as distributed data storage, point-to-point transmission, consensus mechanism and cryptocurrency algorithm. Is a shared distributed ledger in which transactions are permanently recorded through additional blocks
2, block - block
in the bitcoin network, data will be permanently recorded in the form of files, which we call blocks. A block is a set of records for some or all of the latest bitcoin transactions and is not recorded by other previous blocks
3. Node -- a of the ledger operated by the participants of the blockchain network
Decentralization is a phenomenon or structure, which can only appear or exist in a system with many nodes or in a group with many indivials. The influence between nodes will form nonlinear causality through the network5. Consensus mechanism
consensus mechanism is to complete the verification and confirmation of the transaction in a very short time through the voting of special nodes; For a transaction, if several nodes with unrelated interests can reach a consensus, we can think that the whole network can also reach a consensus
6. POW -- proof of work refers to how much money you get depends on the amount of work you contribute to mining. The better the performance of the computer, the more money you will be given
In POS mode, your "mining" income is directly proportional to your currency age, and has nothing to do with the computing performance of the computer8. Smart contract
smart contract is a kind of computer protocol which aims to spread, verify or execute the contract in an information way. Smart contracts allow trusted transactions without a third party, which are traceable and irreversible
9, time stamp
time stamp refers to the string or encoding information used to identify the recorded time and date. The international standard is ISO 8601
Turing completion refers to the ability of a machine to perform calculations that any other programmable computer can perform DAPP decentralized application is an open source application that runs automatically, stores its data on the blockchain, motivates it in the form of cryptocurrency token, and operates with protocols showing valuable proof Dao, a decentralized autonomous organization, can be regarded as a company that operates without any human intervention and gives all forms of control to a set of unbreakable business rules13. Privatekey - private key
a private key is a string of data that allows you to access a token in a specific wallet. As cryptocurrency, they are hidden except for the owner of the address
14. Publickey -- public key
is paired with private key. The public key can calculate the address of the currency, so it can be used as a certificate to own the address of the currency
15, miner
try to create a block and add it to the computing device or software on the blockchain. In a blockchain network, when a new effective block is created, the system will automatically give the block creator (miner) a certain number of tokens as a reward
16. The mine pool is a fully automatic mining platform, which enables mining machines to contribute their computing power to mine together to create blocks, obtain block rewards, and distribute profits according to the proportion of computing power contribution (that is, mining machines access the mine pool - provide computing power - obtain income)
17, public chain
fully open blockchain, refers to anyone can read, anyone can send transactions and transactions can be effectively confirmed, people all over the world can participate in system maintenance, anyone can read and write data through transactions or mining
18. Private chain
write permission is only for the blockchain of a certain organization or a specific few objects. Read permission can be open to the outside world or restricted to any extent
19, alliance chain
consensus mechanism is a blockchain jointly controlled by several designated institutions
20, side chain
wedged side chains technology, which will realize the transfer of bitcoin and other digital assets between multiple blockchains, which means that users can access the new cryptocurrency system when they use their existing assets
21, cross chain technology
cross chain technology can be understood as a bridge connecting the blockchains, and its main application is to realize atom transaction, asset conversion, information exchange within the blockchain, or solve Oracle problems among the blockchains
22. The hard fork
blockchain has permanent divergence. After the release of the new consensus rules, some nodes that have not been upgraded cannot verify the blocks proced by the upgraded nodes, and usually the hard fork will occur
23, soft forking
when the new consensus rules are released, nodes that have not been upgraded will proce illegal blocks because they do not know the new consensus rules, which will lead to temporary forking
24, hash -- hash value
generally translated as "hash", but also directly transliterated as "hash". In short, it is a function that compresses messages of any length to a message digest of a fixed length
25, main chain
the word "main chain" comes from the main network (, relative to the test network), that is, the officially online and independent blockchain network
for those who don't know the "jargon" in the currency circle, let's learn it as soon as possible:
1. What is legal currency legal currency is legal tender, which is issued by the state and the government. It is only guaranteed by the government credit, such as RMB, US dollar and so on 2. What is a token token, usually translated into token. Token is one of the important concepts in blockchain. Its more well-known name is "token". However, in the view of professional "chain circle" people, its more accurate translation is "token", which represents a proof of rights and interests on the blockchain, rather than currency token one is digital proof of rights and interests, which must be in the form of digital certificate of rights and interests, representing a right, an inherent and intrinsic value
3. What is warehouse building
the establishment of a position in a currency circle is also called opening a position, which refers to a trader's new purchase or sale of a certain amount of digital currency
What is Sohasuoha refers to investing all the principal
What is airdrop
airdrop is a very popular marketing method of cryptocurrency. In order to let potential investors and cryptocurrency enthusiasts get token related information, token teams often air drop tokens
6. What is lockup position locking generally refers to investors opening a new position opposite to their original position when the market moves in the opposite direction after the sale and purchase contract, which is also called lock, lock order, or even butterfly double flying doughnut candy is a kind of free digital currency issued to users when all kinds of digital currencies are just issued in ICO. It is a kind of momentum and publicity of the project itself by the issuers of virtual currency projects
breaking refers to falling below, and issuing refers to the issuing price of digital currency. Broken currency circle refers to the price of a digital currency falling below the issue price
What is private placementprivate placement is a way to invest in cryptocurrency projects, and it is also the best way for cryptocurrency project founders to raise funds for platform operation
What do you think of the K-line diagram
K-line chart is also called candle chart, Japanese line, yin-yang line, bar line, red and black line, etc., commonly referred to as "K-line". It is based on the opening price, the highest price, the lowest price and the closing price of each analysis cycle
What is hedging
General hedging refers to two transactions which are related to the market, opposite in direction, equal in quantity and balanced in profit and loss. In the futures contract market, buy the same number of positions with different directions. When the direction is determined, close out the positions in the opposite direction and keep the positive direction to make profits
What is the positionposition is a kind of market agreement, which promises the initial position of the sale and purchase contract, and the buyer is long and in the expected position; The selling contract is short and in the expected position
What are the advantagesgood news: refers to the news that the currency gets the attention of the mainstream media, or a breakthrough in the application of a technology, which is concive to stimulating the price rise
14. What is bad news
bad news: news that causes the price of bitcoin to fall, such as technical problems of bitcoin, central bank's crackdown, etc
What is reboundthe phenomenon of currency price rising e to rapid decline in the downward trend. The recovery is less than the decline
What is leverage
leverage trading, as the name suggests, is to use small amount of funds to invest several times the original amount, in order to obtain multiple returns or losses relative to the fluctuations of the investment object
at present, most of the larger digital currency exchanges, such as binance, coinbase, Kraken and bitfinex, are abroad, and even some exchanges have stopped registering new users, which makes it inconvenient for domestic users to buy. If you want to invest in digital currency, there are also some digital currency P2P trading platforms which are located overseas but provide Chinese services. However, we should pay attention to the risks and whether the platform is safe and reliable
in fact, there is only a line between investment and speculation in digital currency. Although judging from the price changes in the past few years, such projects have the characteristics of high return, compared with the existing investment channels, such projects also have very high risks. It can be expected that some countries will issue digital currency with public power endorsement in the future, but we can't make a clear judgment about the future trend of the existing digital currency. But whatever you do, you need to be aware of the risks.
firstly, the scope of cryptocurrency is the smallest, including digital currency or virtual currency. For example, we can say that bitcoin is a kind of digital currency / virtual currency, but we cannot say that digital currency / virtual currency is a kind of bitcoin
furthermore, only currencies based on blockchain Technology (including cryptography and encryption algorithms) can be called cryptocurrencies. So cryptocurrency is a word specially prepared for bitcoin, Ethereum, and a lot of currencies based on blockchain technology. For example, CT currency and trip currency on the coin exchange platform
2. Legal currency
means that it does not represent the real goods or goods, and the issuer has not fulfilled the obligation to cash the currency in kind; A currency that becomes legal currency only by government decrees. The value of fiat money comes from the owner's belief that money will maintain its purchasing power in the future. Money itself has no intrinsic value, that is to say, when paper money comes into being, legal tender is essentially the paper money that can be circulated according to the law.
at present, the vast majority of professional mining equipment use graphics card.
