The difference between filecoin and Ethereum

1. Miner's moisture is relatively large, the main network code has not been finalized, miner will be determined first. Maybe after the main network goes online, we can't find money. There are also some supercomputing versions on the market, which can be understood as mining machines with a lot more than the normal configuration. This is a good way to deal with the total code changes of filecoin. But certainly not the most cost-effective mining machine. Make a good investigation and wait for you to test in the pit and Yuanli mine.

2.

bitcoin uses SHA-256 encryption algorithm. When mining, it competes with computing power. In order to improve computing power, bitcoin has gone through four stages: CPU mining, GPU mining, FPGA mining and now ASIC mining machine mining, and the degree of specialization is getting higher and higher

Ethereum uses the ethash encryption algorithm. In the process of mining, it needs to read the memory and store the DAG file. Because the bandwidth of each read memory is limited, and the existing computer technology is difficult to have a qualitative breakthrough in this problem, so no matter how to improve the computing efficiency of the computer, the memory read efficiency will not be greatly improved. Therefore, in a sense, Ethereum's ethash encryption algorithm is ASIC resistant.

different encryption algorithms lead to great differences in mining equipment and computing power between bitcoin and Ethereum

at present, bitcoin mining equipment is mainly ASIC mining machine with a very high degree of specialization. The maximum computing power of a single mining machine is 110t / s, and the scale of computing power of the whole network is more than 120eh / s

the main mining equipment of Ethereum is video card miner, and there are very few specialized ASIC miner. On the one hand, the "ASIC resistance" of Ethereum mining algorithm improves the threshold of developing ASIC miner. On the other hand, after Ethereum is upgraded to 2.0, the consensus mechanism will be transformed into POS, and the miner can not continue mining

compared with the ASIC miner, the graphics card miner has two orders of magnitude difference in computing power. At present, the computing power of mainstream graphics card miner (8 cards) is about 420mh / s, and that of Ethereum is about 230th / s.

from the time dimension of the past two years, bitcoin's computing power of the whole network is growing rapidly, while Ethereum's computing power of the whole network is growing relatively slowly

The ASIC mining machine of

bitcoin is monopolized by several major mining machine manufacturers, and miners can only buy it from the market; Although the graphics card miner of Ethereum is also manufactured by a special miner, the miner can buy accessories from the market and assemble them according to his own demand

3. Now the mainstream digital currency trading platforms are mainly coin security, fire coin and OK. The choice of trading platform mainly depends on the scale and security of the platform, so as to prevent the platform from running away or being attacked and stolen by hackers

4. In May 2014, Juan benet, who graated from Stanford University, put forward the idea of IPFs. In 2015, he set up the protocol lab, which is specially responsible for the development of IPFs
the full name of IPFs is the interplanetary file system. It is a point-to-point distributed file system. Its goal is to build a more open, fast and secure Internet, and to supplement or even replace the existing Internet HTTP protocol. IPFs is not a blockchain or a project, but an underlying network transmission protocol
in 2017, protocol lab announced the establishment of filecoin, a blockchain project based on IPFs
IPFs is just an underlying transport protocol. Blockchain technology can amplify the role of IPFs, and IPFs will become an important underlying infrastructure of blockchain. This is why the protocol Lab of IPFs needs to set up a blockchain project filecoin based on IPFs
the relationship between IPFs and filecoin is just like that between blockchain technology and bitcoin. The former is the underlying infrastructure protocol, while the latter is an application
the main network of IPFs / filecoin is expected to be online in July 2020
now, with the main network online time getting closer and closer, the value of fil based on filecoin network is getting higher and higher, and the problem of asset security is imminent. The good news is that not long ago, the official support wallet TJ wallet of filecoin has been tested. I believe it will be released in the near future. You can experience it then~

5.

Filecoin is a token on IPFs, and filecoin is a way to reward miners by contributing idle hard disks. Filecoin adopts a new algorithm (workload proof). In short, if you have enough hard disk capacity, the more filecoin rewards you get

The data structure of

IPFs is very simple, but it can be very powerful. It is an immutable data storage, much like blockchain

filecoin involves your idle hard disk in mining, and the bottom layer of filecoin is blockchain. So in mining, we need to do these things:

1. Storage

2. Transaction

3. Retrieval

Mining revenue comes from:

1. Prove the copied data, package transaction

2. Package block

speed is also related, who can make users accept the distribution content faster, who can get higher benefits. So, who has faster bandwidth, more powerful hard disk can have greater advantages. In addition, consensus mechanism plays an important role in hard disk capacity, which is completely different from bitcoin

6.

Filecoin is mainly to encourage everyone to contribute hard disk resources, because the essence of IPFs is to share their own storage space, namely "shared hard disk". IPFs has been successfully applied in browser, data storage, file transfer, network video, social media, decentralized application and other fields

its value:

makes data storage safer and more convenient

perfectly supports applications in the field

reces storage cost and bandwidth cost

IPFs applications:

in the browser application field, Firefox, Google, IPSE, Poseidon, opera Brave browser has joined the IPFs ecosystem to support distributed protocols including IPFs

in the field of file transfer applications, partyshare, Pinata, ipwb and other file applications allow users to upload, download and share files using IPFs

in the application field of content platform, Netflix, d.tube, Dlive, Primas, mediachain, ujomusic and other content platforms, or use IPFs as a peer-to-peer CDN to help faster distribution container, or allow users to watch / upload content information on the basis of IPFs / filecoin, or allow content information to be stored on IPFs, and obtain rewards through sharing / comments and other operations

in social applications, indorse, steelshot, 3box, peepeth, Akasha and other social applications use IPFs technology to store data and ensure data security

in the field of e-commerce (market) applications, origin, open bazaar, know origin, etc. rely on the blockchain IPFs technology to host the proct database and supporting media on IPFs to ensure data security

in addition, other applications such as textile, iku, eehlance, peergos, August, civic, bradbvry, ethofs, play to earth, QRI, resume, temporary, terminal in the fields of Finance and NFT also support IPFs technology to improve and promote the healthy growth of their own ecology

precautions: in addition, you should make more use of Internet search to query more relevant knowledge. Internet search is the value of both

7. The main differences are: IPFs is the underlying protocol of distributed storage, similar to http; Filecoin is a distributed storage network constructed by IPFs and blockchain technology.

8. IPF is closely symbiotic with filecoin
IPFs is used to locate and transmit data and exists as infrastructure; Filecoin is the economic incentive system of IPFs
without filecoin, IPFs is difficult to start and work; The continuous development of IPFs provides an important basic support for filecoin, and the popularity of IPFs will affect the market's demand for more secure and efficient distributed storage filecoin
mining machine is the machine that you get filecoin, IPFs is a technology, and what we call mining is actually the incentive layer of this technology, which is filecoin.

9. The only similarity between the two should be that they are both virtual coins. The difference is that in terms of generation mode and energy consumption, filecoin does not need large-scale operation and consumes less energy, while bitcoin needs large-scale machine operation and consumes huge energy.

10.

It mainly solves the problem of data distribution and location, which is similar to the monopoly HTTP protocol in the field of online Internet technology. Different from HTTP protocol, HTTP protocol data is point-to-point transmission, while its data is multi-point transmission.

the difference between the two is as follows:

1. It is a pair of complementary protocols

2. It can be used for applications based on it, which solves the problems of low cost, low cost and low cost High performance storage problem

3. The two are independent, just like indivial combat and team combat

4. The combination of the two can also be selected at the same time to maximize the development flexibility for developers

save energy:

A. only by understanding the essence, can you use it to realize the ultimate freedom of wealth, and you are the banker.

B. the reason is that there is no real wisdom of blockchain in the brain. Fortune meets you by accident. Practice hard and stay away from poverty

C. It's not only a few technical concepts and project information, but also the thinking and belief extracted from them. Only when they are combined, can they be condensed into a sense full of feelings and wisdom flowing with blood, which is the blow of wealth dimensionality rection
