Initial chain coin mining
Before specifically talking about what mining is, you need to know what blockchain is
to put it simply, blockchain is a new application mode integrating various computer technologies. Just treat it as a new technology. The network constructed by blockchain technology has the characteristics of "decentralization", "information tampering", "openness", "anonymity", "security and reliability". These technologies can be applied in many fields, in short, it is very powerful ~
miner, a simple understanding is a more advanced computer, miner is to contribute to the blockchain network, you can regard miners as the guardian of the blockchain
with mining machinery, the blockchain network can operate normally. These mining machines are constantly doing calculations to provide computing power for the blockchain network. When the mining machine makes the correct calculation, the whole blockchain network will reward the mining machine with the corresponding digital currency. This process is called mining
if you also want to make a "contribution" to the blockchain, you need to download the mining system to start, miracle Moore learn about it
In 2009, bencong invented bitcoin, and set that there are only 21 million bitcoins. By participating in the proction of blocks and providing proof of work (POW), he can get the reward of bitcoin network. This process is mining
the concept of "mining" comes from the existing concepts in our real economic life, such as gold mining and silver mining. Because minerals are valuable, it drives people to pay labor to dig
another important point of bitcoin mining is that the miners who participate in mining recognize the value of bitcoin, and some of them are willing to spend money in the bitcoin market. Therefore, the mining of bitcoin is meaningful
extended data
currency characteristics of bitcoin
1, decentralized
bitcoin is the first distributed virtual currency, and the whole network is composed of users without central bank. Decentralization is the guarantee of bitcoin's security and freedom
2, bitcoin can be managed on any computer connected to the Internet. No matter where you are, anyone can dig, buy, sell or collect bitcoin
3, exclusive ownership
controlling bitcoin requires a private key, which can be stored in any storage medium in isolation. No one can get it except the user himself
4, low transaction cost
bitcoin can be remitted free of charge, but in the end, about 1 bitfen transaction fee will be charged for each transaction to ensure faster transaction execution
5, no hidden cost
as a means of payment from a to B, bitcoin has no cumbersome limit of quota and proceres. If you know the other party's bitcoin address, you can pay
6, cross platform mining
users can explore the computing power of different hardware on many platforms
It's a scam. Many Internet enterprises and network security enterprises believe that illegal "mining" has become a serious network security problem
with the rise of "cloud mining", the virtual machine has become the main use object of digital currency such as Monroe coin and Eli coin, and the situation of embezzling cloud computing resources for "mining" has also increased significantly; Security team monitoring found that "competing for mining machine" has become one of the important purposes of Botnet expansion; And found a new type of "mining" virus (mining XmR / Monroe), the virus spread wildly in two months, illegal "mining" profits of nearly one million yuan
extended information:
from a commercial point of view, the business model of mining can walk out of a "healthy road". As long as the "incentive money" is lower than the average cost of new users in the market, the business model will be reasonable and feasible
however, if the platform tempts users to participate with "no capital, no profit", it is worth being vigilant. The so-called "mining" opportunity provided by the platform is likely to be "digging a good hole" waiting for you to jump in
secure payment. Qwc has no pre excavation and ICO, and adopts cryptonight algorithm (supporting mainstream mining machine X3 and A8 +) POW mining.
I hope I can help you. Thank you for your adoption.
