What is bitcoin? We still have to dig

1.

bitcoin is the first distributed virtual currency

to mine bitcoin, you can download the special bitcoin computing tools, register various cooperation websites, fill the registered user name and password into the computing program, and then click the operation to officially start. After completing the installation of bitcoin client, you can directly obtain a bitcoin address. When others pay, you only need to paste the address to others, and you can pay through the same client

after installing the bitcoin client, it will assign a private key and a public key. You need to back up the wallet data containing your private key to ensure that your property is not lost. Unfortunately, if the hard disk is completely formatted, personal bitcoin will be completely lost

extended information:

as a virtual commodity, bitcoin itself has no national boundaries, and its operation mode is a "decentralized" monetary system, which is very convenient for one-time large transaction. Bitcoin is traded through the network, and the owner's identity is only in the form of a set of encrypted computer code

in the operation, input a digital address directly, click the mouse a few times, and wait for the confirmation of the transaction to complete the transaction. The network can only record which address a bitcoin was g up from and how it was transferred

however, the identity of the owners of these addresses can not be verified, which is just like when money goes to an ownerless bank account, the relevant transactions can easily be invisible from the perspective of government supervision, and it is difficult to be tracked or intercepted. In addition, bitcoin can evade the scrutiny of exchange control institutions required by normal cross-border remittance, and the transaction records will not be recorded by banks and other parties

naturally, the problem of reporting to relevant departments after the transaction exceeds a certain amount is avoided. Buy bitcoin with domestic currency, sell it on foreign trading platforms, and withdraw it in US dollars. Asset transfer can be completed in a few minutes

it is not difficult to open an overseas bank account related to bitcoin for foreign exchange, and the conversion is very convenient. Because of these characteristics, bitcoin has been chosen by criminal organizations

2. Starting from the essence of bitcoin, the essence of bitcoin is actually a special solution generated by a bunch of complex algorithms. A special solution is one of the infinite (in fact, bitcoin is finite) solutions that can be obtained from the equations. Every particular solution can solve the equation and is unique
in the metaphor of RMB, bitcoin is the serial number of RMB. If you know the serial number of a note, you have the note. The process of mining is to constantly seek the special solution of this equation system through a huge amount of calculation. This equation system is designed to have only 21 million special solutions, so the upper limit of bitcoin is 21 million

3. The concept of bitcoin was first proposed by Nakamoto on November 1, 2008, and was officially born on January 3, 2009. According to the idea of Nakamoto, the open source software is designed and released, and the P2P network on it is constructed. Bitcoin is a virtual encrypted digital currency in the form of P2P. Point to point transmission means a decentralized payment system
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

4. The actions in bitcoin can be regarded as the use of graphics card to do continuous general computing, and the computational complexity is relatively low and quite repetitive. The stream processor used by graphics card is just suitable for such an algorithm. It's like constantly solving equations. The graphics card is 2000 middle school students, while the CPU is 8 math doctors. Although the mathematical knowledge of the doctor of mathematics is far more than that of the middle school students, the speed of solving medium-sized equations such as virtual currency is certainly not as fast as that of 2000 middle school students
therefore, we used graphics cards to mine virtual currency at the beginning. After that, someone developed a specific algorithm to make the stream processor of the graphics card greatly strengthen the virtual currency solution, which is the origin of the mining machine
the transmission of knowledge is driven by life

5. Bitcoin mining is a process of using computer hardware to do mathematical calculation for bitcoin network to confirm transactions and improve security. As a reward for their service, miners can get the Commission included in the transaction they confirm, as well as the newly created bitcoin. Mining is a professional and competitive market. The bonus is divided according to the amount of calculation. Not all bitcoin users mine, and it's not easy to make money from mining
the popular point is to use the computing power of your computer to solve mathematical problems, and then give you a certain amount of bitcoin in return
bitcoin mining has gone through three stages, CPU, GPU and ASIC
. At present, bitcoin mining needs professional ASIC mining machine. At present, Avalon and butterfly laboratory are more famous mining machinery manufacturers in the market, but American butterfly laboratory likes to evade tickets. Avalon has proced the world's first ASIC miner. At present, Avalon's third generation chips have been put into the market, and avalon3 miner is about to enter the market.

6. &# 10; Bitcoin is a kind of electronic currency, which is proced by P2P software. It does not rely on the issuance of specific monetary institutions, but through a large number of calculations of this software. The number of bitcoin is limited (the biggest difference from other virtual currencies). Now the number seems to be limited to 21 million. Bitcoin can be used to buy virtual procts in online games or real procts as long as the other party accepts them.
