The significance of virtual currency mining
mining is a nickname for the exploration method of acquiring bitcoin. Because of its working principle is very similar to mining minerals, so named. In addition, bitcoin explorers who do mining work are also known as miners
bitcoin network generates new bitcoin through "mining". In essence, the so-called "mining" is to use computers to solve a complex mathematical problem to ensure the consistency of bitcoin network distributed accounting system
bitcoin network will automatically adjust the difficulty of mathematical problems, so that the whole network can get a qualified answer about every 10 minutes
then the bitcoin network will generate a certain amount of bitcoin as a reward to reward the person who gets the answer
extended data:
to be a miner, just "mine" bitcoin and search for 64 bit numbers by computer. By repeatedly decrypting with a computer, it competes with other gold miners to provide the number needed for the bitcoin network
if the computer can successfully create a set of numbers, it will get 25 bitcoins. Bitcoin is decentralized. It needs to create a fixed number of bitcoins per unit of computing time. It can get 25 bitcoins every 10 minutes
by 2140, the upper limit of bitcoin in circulation will reach 21 million. In other words, bitcoin system can be self-sufficient, which can be translated into coding to resist inflation and prevent others from sabotaging< br />
Bitcoin mining is a process that uses computer hardware to calculate the location of bitcoin and obtain it
mining is an incentive process to record data in the bitcoin system. In the bitcoin system, indivial users have the right to pack blocks after calculating a specific hash value by using CPU or GPU to hash
and in order to reward this user for packing blocks, the system will give a certain amount of bitcoin as reward. Because this process is very similar to "mining" in real life, most people call this process mining. In addition to bitcoin, other electronic virtual currencies can also be obtained through mining rewards, such as Ethereum, Monroe and so on
extended data:
mining risk:
1, currency security
the withdrawal of bitcoin requires hundreds of keys, and most people will record this long string of numbers on the computer, but frequent problems such as hard disk damage will make the key permanently lost, which also leads to the loss of bitcoin
2, system risk
system risk is very common in bitcoin, and the most common one is bifurcation. Bifurcation will lead to a drop in currency price and a sharp drop in mining income. However, many cases show that the forking will benefit the miners, and the forked competitive currency also needs the miners' computing power to complete the minting and trading process. In order to win more miners, the competitive currency will provide more block rewards and handling charges to attract miners. Risk makes miners
Bitcoin is actually a virtual currency. When bitcoin first appeared, if you want to get bitcoin, you have to get bitcoin through mining. Therefore, bitcoin mining appeared. But bitcoin mining is more and more difficult, so it is very difficult to get bitcoin now
so now many people use Haru miner digs Ethereum, Monroe and other virtual coins. Most importantly, BTC can be directly equivalent in the end
unlike all currencies, bitcoin does not rely on a specific currency institution to issue. It is generated by a large number of calculations based on a specific algorithm. Bitcoin economy uses a distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions, and uses cryptography design to ensure the security of all aspects of currency circulation. The decentralized nature and algorithm of P2P can ensure that it is impossible to artificially manipulate the value of bitcoin through mass proction. The design based on cryptography can make bitcoin only be transferred or paid by the real owner. This also ensures the anonymity of money ownership and circulation transactions. The biggest difference between bitcoin and other virtual currencies is that the total amount of bitcoin is very limited and it has a strong scarcity

2. According to the notice on preventing the financing risk of token issuance, there is no approved digital currency trading platform in China. According to the regulation of digital currency in China, investors have the freedom to participate in digital currency transactions at their own risk

2. Digital currency is a kind of unregulated and digital currency, which is usually issued and managed by developers and accepted and used by members of specific virtual communities. The European Banking authority defines virtual currency as a digital representation of value, which is not issued by the central bank or authorities, nor linked with legal currency. However, because it is accepted by the public, it can be used as a means of payment, or it can be transferred, stored or traded in electronic form
