Pool allocation
hope to be useful to you, please adopt!
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
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.
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.
ore pool cost
at present, the allocation modes of ore pool mainly include PPS, PPS +, FPPS, PPLNs and solo mode
in the corresponding allocation method, the mine pool charges part of the income of the miners at a certain rate as the mine pool fee
PPS: the income is stable. As long as the mining machine works normally, there will be income. The income is related to the submitted workload, and has nothing to do with the lucky value of the ore pool and the transaction fee
PPS + (pay per share plus) settlement method is an improvement on the traditional PPS settlement method. Based on the traditional PPS settlement method, the distribution of miners' fees is increased
FPPS: full PPS, which allocates all block income including transaction fees. Compared with the traditional PPS settlement mode (no transaction fee allocation), it can increase the income by 10% - 20%
under the PPLNs (pay per last n shares) settlement mode, every effective block found in the ore pool is allocated according to the proportion of user computing power in the pool computing power in the past n difficulty cycles. In this way, the income of miners is related to the output of ore pool. The income of miners is unstable, but the long-term average income is higher
in solo settlement mode, all the income is distributed to the miners who dig out the block, and other miners do not participate in the distribution. The mine pool charges very little handling charge, which is used for the operation and maintenance of the mine pool< How to choose a mine pool:
1< Secondly, choose your distribution mode, pursue stability or high income. It is generally recommended to choose PPS or PPLNs of large ore pool< Finally, according to the distribution mode, select the supported ore pool, and choose the one with fast connection speed and good income
4. In addition, 1-2 spare ore pools are selected for emergency use.
