Evolution of bitcoin mining machine
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

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
garzik, was fortunate to be the owner of the first commercial ASIC miner.
the most difficult mining problem was 0, and the computing power was about 2p at the beginning of 2013, and now it has reached 100p
it's true that bitcoin mining can be done with ordinary computer CPU, but because bitcoin mining has formed a huge instry all over the world, it's difficult for indivials to find bitcoin with ordinary computer. You need to buy an expensive and professional bitcoin ASIC miner and join the bitcoin miners organization to get bitcoin, that is, to join a mining pool for mining
the market threshold of bitcoin mining machine is very high and the water is very deep. It is suggested that new players who want to make money from mining should be cautious
at present, bitcoin mining needs professional ASIC miner, for example, Avalon miner, which is the mainstream in the market. It is said that the chip of Avalon's fourth generation 28nm process will be fabricated soon, and it is expected that the research and development focus next year will be on the chip of the fifth generation 16nm process.
Hello,
bitcoin miner is mainly composed of graphics card and computing chip
hardware expenditure
mining is actually a competition of performance and equipment. The mining machine composed of many graphics cards, even if it's only hd6770, can surpass the single graphics card of most users. And this is not the most terrible. Some mining machines are made up of more such graphics card arrays. When dozens or even hundreds of graphics cards come together, the graphics card itself costs money. Taking into account the hardware price and other costs, there is a considerable expenditure in mining
but bitcoin mining as an infrastructure, if bitcoin can continue to exist, although the income of mining is reced, for the security of the whole bitcoin network system, some big bitcoin companies may invest in mining to maintain the security of bitcoin network system. In addition, the future of bitcoin will become more clear and bright. Bitcoin's computing power will not decrease, but will increase.
the most difficult mining problem is 0. At the beginning of 2013, the computing power was about 2p, and now it has reached 100p
CPU mining → GPU mining → professional miner mining → mine pool mining
on January 3, 2009, the founder of bitcoin, Nakamoto Tsung, g up the first batch of bitcoin with computer CPU
with the recognition of bitcoin, more and more people are mining, the computing power of the whole network is rising, and the difficulty of mining is graally rising
the first graphics card mining software was released on September 18, 2010. A graphics card is equivalent to dozens of CPUs, and the mining capacity has been significantly improved
later, someone invented a professional mining equipment based on mining chip, namely mining machine. At present, the instry-leading ant miner is equipped with nearly 200 bm1387 chips, which is equivalent to the computing power of more than 30000 GPUs
as more mining machines are added to mining, it is difficult for a single mining machine to dig bitcoin. As a result, the miners concentrated their mining machines and formed mines and pools.
