One year cost of mine pool
at present, the computing power of bitcoin in the whole network has reached 2.36 billion hash collisions per second, which is equivalent to the number of water droplets in more than 200000 50 meter long standard swimming pools. But even with such a large amount of computing power, it will take about 10 minutes to hit a hash value that meets the requirements
in 2012, bitcoin's output was halved for the first time, and in July 2016, bitcoin's output was halved for the second time. At present, 12.5 bitcoins are awarded for recording one page of account book. The next halving will take place around 2020, and the total number of bitcoins will not increase by 2040, with a total of 21 million. In other words, the difficulty of digging bitcoin is increasing, while the time required is increasing
mining is perhaps one of the most important components of the bitcoin ecosystem. Miners need to solve complex mathematical problems, so as to ensure the smooth implementation of the transaction. These problems are so complex that they are difficult to solve even for extremely powerful computers. Computers need work and luck to solve these mathematical problems, just as miners dig underground. The chance of solving this problem correctly is about one in 13 trillion
bitcoin mining has two purposes. Firstly, by solving mathematical problems, bitcoin miners can verify the transaction information, so as to ensure the security and reliability of bitcoin payment network. Miners are the people who ensure that transactions are accurate and that there is no "double payment."
Secondly, when the computer solves these complex mathematical problems on the bitcoin network, the system will generate new bitcoin, which is similar to the process of mining gold from the ground. The reward is called "block reward", and after the event called "halving", its amount will be periodically halved. The newly discovered concept of bitcoin is an important part of bitcoin protocol. The bitcoin obtained by the miners is brand new and has never been in circulation beforesince miners will eventually sell the bitcoin, it is also an important source of supply and liquidity. As chainalysis reports, many digital currency exchanges rely on miners to receive bitcoin and increase their liquidity. Typically, exchanges get about 88% of bitcoin from other exchanges, and bitcoin miners are the largest source of the remaining percentage. As you can imagine, there is fierce competition between exchanges to receive bitcoin directly from miners
further enlarge the map, most of the mining activities are only carried out in four provinces, the first two provinces are Xinjiang and Sichuan, accounting for nearly half of all bitcoin mining in China. Electricity prices are cheap and the weather is cold in these areas. This helps to keep mining profits and equipment cool ring the 24 / 7 operation and maintenance period of bitcoin mining
but this is nothing new for digital currency issuance. For many years, China has been a major market for bitcoin miners e to its cheap electricity and abundant resources. Bitmain, f2pool and Canaan are all located in China
whether this is a negative or positive message depends on your point of view. But for decentralized, distributed, unlicensed networks, geographic regions across multiple entities are more healthy for the entire ecosystem
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.
its speculative value is far greater than the mining value
participation is not recommended.
look at the balance sheet, profit, etc. first, go to this company to look at its report. Look at the profit from its sales revenue.
for example, what is the proportion of profit. From the size of gross profit, we can know how a company's buyer is.
if the proportion of gross profit and sales is large, From the dividend, we can see whether the company pays attention to investment,
or short-term profits. From the ratio of working capital and current liabilities, we can see the company's ability to repay others
if it is too low, it can explain the management efficiency of the company from the side. If it is too high, it also shows that the company is not good at investment.
in other aspects, you can understand its background, evaluate its ability, and whether it is suitable for the company from the perspective of the company's managers. Or from the past performance, you can see how the company's loans are. If there are too many, there will be risks, or lack of confidence. Dividing the net profit by the sales volume, we can know the consumption management of the company in other aspects, such as water and electricity, office supplies, etc. if the result is relatively high, it means that the company is economical and orderly. If it is relatively low, it means that the efficiency of the company is not high,
if there is a significant increase, the company is in the right direction.
Step 1: prepare mining machines and pools
if you want to dig bitcoin, you must prepare professional equipment. At present, there are many professional mining machines on the market, and the pool is also essential. When you choose a pool, you should also compare the output and income gap of each pool, and then choose the most suitable one
Step 2: register and set the mine account
after the mine is ready, register the mine account and set a common email. When setting the mine account, each CPU or GPU needs to set a mine account
Step 3: download the bitcoin miner
after you register and set up your account, you need to download the bitcoin miner. When downloading the miner, be sure to choose the miner that can make your CPU and graphics card play the most function. After downloading, set the server, user name, password, device and so on
Step 4: Mining
after setting up the miner, click the "start mining" button, the miner will enter the state of full speed operation, and the miner will start mining automatically.
It depends on the electricity bill, and the efficiency of mining
the most efficient is Claymore on GitHub. The algorithm is very good, but the author has 2%
because of the wall, the download of GitHub will often have problems
< P > I modified the code to remove the author's extraction. Students who want to mine can try Claymore, Give a link to the network disk ~ students who are inconvenient in GitHub can download it from the network disk, double-click the EXE file ~ but remember to change the account to your own ~network cloud link - Claymore algorithm optimization version
