Assembly principle of mining machine
In short, mining is the use of chips for a random number related calculation, get the answer in exchange for a virtual currency. Virtual currency can be exchanged for the currency of each country through some way. The stronger the computing power, the faster the chip can find this random answer. Theoretically, the more virtual coins can be proced per unit time. Because it's about random numbers, you can only get rewards if you happen to find the answer
In his paper, Nakamoto stated:"in the absence of central authority, it not only encourages miners to support bitcoin network, but also enables bitcoin's currency circulation system to have the initial source of money injection."
Nakamoto compares the generation of bitcoin by consuming CPU power and time to the consumption of resources by gold mines to inject gold into the economy. Bitcoin mining and node software mainly initiates zero knowledge proof and verification transactions through peer-to-peer network, digital signature and interactive proof system
each network node concts broadcast transactions to the network. After these broadcast transactions are verified by miners (computers on the network), miners can use their own work proof results to express their confirmation. The confirmed transactions will be packaged into data blocks, and the data blocks will form a continuous data block chain
Nakamoto himself designed the first version of bitcoin mining program, which was later developed into the first generation of widely used mining software bitcoin, which was popular from 2009 to mid-2010
each bitcoin node will collect all the unconfirmed transactions and gather them into a data block. The miner node will add a random adjustment number and calculate the SHA-256 hash value of the previous data block. The mining node tries again and again until it finds the random adjustment number so that the hash value is lower than a specific target

at the earliest, bitcoin miners were mining through Intel or AMD CPU procts. But because mining is a computing intensive application, and with the continuous improvement of mining number and equipment performance, the difficulty graally increases, now using CPU mining has no profit or even loss
as of 2012, since the first quarter of 2013, miners graally began to use GPU or FPGA and other mining equipment [5]. At the same time, a large number of ASIC devices were launched in mid 2013
since July 2013, the computing power of the whole network has shown a straight-line rise e to the large number of ASIC equipment put into operation. Based on the average computing power in July 2013, all CPU mining equipment has been unable to generate positive revenue, and FPGA equipment is close to no revenue
according to the estimation of average computing power in September 2013, the existing small ASIC mining equipment developed for indivials will also be close to no positive revenue in the next 1-2 months. A large amount of computing power is monopolized by cluster ASIC mining equipment with 5 th ash / s or more. Because of no profit, indivial mining is almost squeezed out of mining groups. Some bitcoin miners have raised funds to build machine rooms and install a large number of mining equipment in places where low-cost electricity can be obtained
in order to save the cost of mining, some bitcoin miners make mining programs into malicious programs to infect other people's computers on the network to mine for themselves
the general computing power of the graphics card is a few gigabytes, while the professional miner chip is as high as several thousand gigabytes. Take bm1387, the chip with the lowest power consumption in the world, as an example, the S9's computing power is as high as 14T, the power consumption on the wall is only 1400W, and the rated computing power reaches 13.5 Th / s ± 1 J / GH + 12% (wall, AC / DC 93% efficiency, 25 ° Rated voltage: 11.6 ~ 13.0v, in addition, in the case of non independent power supply, three power calculation boards can be connected to different power supply respectively, but each power calculation board can not be connected to multiple power supply, and ensure that the power calculation board is finally powered on
among the mining machines, ant mining machine is my favorite. At the same time, based on the average investment cost of bitcoin in the early stage, ant S9 can basically recover the capital in about five months, and the income in the later stage is immeasurable.

CPU is not very important. However, it should not be lower than i5,
the difference between the overall structure of mining equipment and ordinary PC machine is the number of graphics cards
four or eight can be installed through pic extension. Of course, you think it's enough for two, one is OK
after expansion, you need to make your own expansion shelf. To fix the graphics card and other equipment, we need to get some fans on the shelf to cool the graphics card.
Bitcoin mining is a process of using computer hardware to do mathematical calculation for bitcoin network to confirm transactions and improve security
What is a bitcoin miner? I often hear about bitcoin, bitcoin mining machine. Let's talk about bitcoin. 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
The digital currency in the future is believed to be similar to bitcoin, but it is by no means a limited supply. But when the human ability to proce wealth can be completely matched by the computing power of the computer, the issuing speed of e-money is directly proportional to or slightly exceeds the computing speed of the computer to create moderate inflation. In the future, while mining, it is also creating value rather than wasting electricity. In the end, the small changes in proctivity of digital currency match the difficulty of computing power, which may be the final form of human currency
