BTC transaction confirmation quantity

1.

The total number of bitcoins is 21 million

in 2009, when bitcoin was born, block reward was 50 bitcoins. Ten minutes after its birth, the first 50 bitcoins were generated, and the total amount of money at this time is 50. Then bitcoin grew at a rate of about 50 every 10 minutes. When the total amount reaches 10.5 million (50% of 21 million), the block reward will be halved to 25

when the total amount reaches 15.75 million (5.25 million new output, i.e. 50% of 1050), the block reward will be further halved to 12.5. The monetary system used to have no more than 10.5 million in four years, after which the total number will be permanently limited to about 21 million

monetary characteristics

1. Decentralization: bitcoin is the first distributed virtual currency, and the whole network is composed of users without a central bank. Decentralization is the guarantee of bitcoin's security and freedom

2. Global circulation: 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: private key is needed to control bitcoin, 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 a transaction fee of about 1 bitfen 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

2. Lightning bitcoin will eventually return to zero. It's better to buy bitcoin than to have money. The main feature of "Shanzhai coin" is that most of them are realized by modifying or even directly applying the source code of bitcoin (bitcoin program is open source). A new name is given and a new kind of currency is born. Only a small number of currencies use the idea of blockchain for reference and implement it without bitcoin source code.

3. A block size of bitcoin is 1MB. There is no limit on the size of each transaction. A block can generally contain 2000-3000 transactions.

4. You are right. Indeed, it will be rolled back. If the transaction is unfortunately packaged on the fork, the transaction is likely to be cancelled after the main chain is synchronized

the reason why we need six confirmations is that it is more difficult to obtain the optimal solution (to prevent single node fraud). One block may also be able to get an optimal solution, and it is basically impossible to get six blocks together. It has nothing to do with bifurcation

5. Bitcoin receives payments almost instantaneously. However, there is an average delay of 10 minutes before the network starts adding your transaction to a block to confirm the transaction and that you can use the received bitcoin. Confirmation means that there is a consensus on the Internet that the bitcoin you receive is not used to pay others, so it is recognized as your property. Once your transaction is included in one block, all subsequent blocks will include it, which will greatly consolidate this consensus and rece the risk of transaction cancellation. Each user can determine the time when the transaction is confirmed, but generally speaking, receiving six confirmations is as safe as waiting six months after a credit card transaction
anyone can become a bitcoin miner by running software on specialized hardware. Mining software monitors transaction broadcast through P2P network and performs appropriate tasks to process and confirm these transactions. Bitcoin miners can earn transaction fees paid by users to speed up transaction processing and additional bitcoin issued according to fixed formula

new transactions need to be included in a block with mathematical workload proof before they can be confirmed. This kind of proof is hard to generate because it can only be generated by trying billions of calculations per second. Miners need to run these calculations before their blocks are accepted and rewarded. As more people start mining, the difficulty of finding effective blocks will be automatically increased by the network to ensure that the average time to find a block remains at 10 minutes. Therefore, the competition for mining is very fierce, and no indivial miner can control the content contained in the block chain
workload proof is also designed to rely on previous blocks, which forces the time sequence of block chain. This design makes it extremely difficult to cancel previous transactions, because the workload proof of all subsequent blocks needs to be recalculated. When two blocks are found at the same time, the miner will process the first block received, and once the next block is found, it will be transferred to the longest block chain. This ensures that the mining process maintains a global consistency based on processing capacity
bitcoin miners can neither increase their rewards by cheating, nor deal with the fraulent transactions that destroy the bitcoin network, because all bitcoin nodes will reject the blocks containing invalid data that violate the bitcoin protocol rules. Therefore, even if not all bitcoin miners can be trusted, the bitcoin network is still secure

6. If you want to ensure the irreversibility of the transaction, you have to wait for six data blocks to be fully confirmed, which takes at least one hour to confirm.

Transaction mode of bitcoin

bitcoin is e-cash similar to e-mail, and both parties need "bitcoin wallet" similar to e-mail and "bitcoin address" similar to e-mail address. Just like sending and receiving e-mail, the remitter pays bitcoin directly to the other party through a computer or smart phone according to the recipient's address. The following table lists some websites that download bitcoin wallets and addresses for free

a bitcoin address is a string of about 33 characters long, consisting of letters and numbers, always starting with 1 or 3, such as & quot& quot; Bitcoin software can generate address automatically, and it doesn't need to exchange information online, so it can be offline. More than 2 bitcoin addresses are available. Figuratively speaking, there are about two grains of sand in the world. If there is an earth in each grain of sand, then the total number of bitcoin addresses far exceeds the number of all the sand on all these "earths"

the bitcoin address and private key appear in pairs, and their relationship is just like the bank card number and password. A bitcoin address is like a bank card number, which records how much bitcoin you have on it. You can generate bitcoin address at will to store bitcoin. When each bitcoin address is generated, a corresponding private key of the address will be generated. This private key proves that you have ownership of the bitcoin at that address. We can simply understand the bitcoin address as the bank card number, and the private key of the address as the password of the corresponding bank card number. Only when you know the bank password can you use the money on the bank card number. Therefore, please keep your address and private key when using bitcoin wallet

after the transaction data of bitcoin is packaged into a "data block" or "block", the transaction is initially confirmed. When a block is linked to a previous block, the transaction is further confirmed. After six block confirmations in a row, the transaction was irreversibly confirmed. Bitcoin P2P stores all transaction history in a "blockchain.". The blockchain continues to extend, and once new blocks are added to the blockchain, they will not be removed. Blockchain is actually a distributed database composed of a group of scattered client nodes and all participants, which is a record of all bitcoin transaction history. Nakamoto predicts that when the amount of data increases, users hope that not all the data will be stored in their own nodes. In order to achieve this goal, he uses the hash function mechanism. In this way, the client will be able to automatically eliminate those parts that it will never use, such as some very early bitcoin transactions

8. No, the transaction that belongs to you, that is, your utxo will be saved to your bitcoin wallet file, and each payment will be found from your wallet database. If you lose the contents of your wallet, you can use your key information to access the service node to retrieve your utxo. If you lose the key, don't worry.

9. No, I think it's a virtual currency. It has no limit. If it's a global virtual digital currency, it should be traded 24 hours a day, and there is no limit on the rise and fall.

The price and quantity of purchase can be set in the price limit. Only the amount of RMB purchased can be entered in the market price column. The minimum bitcoin purchase of fire coin is 0.00000 1

according to the market price (71193.96usdt / BTC), it is 0.01018511 usdt. Once the balance of your usdt account is less than this number, it shows that the available quantity is insufficient

extended data

fire coin said it would stop virtual currency trading on October 31, 2017. In the future, the main layout of fire coin network is overseas transactions. As of the end of 2016, the accumulated turnover of fire currency reached 200 billion yuan

fire coin is a bitcoin trading platform, which has won a round of 10 million RMB capital investment from Zhenge fund, Dai Zhikang, Sequoia Capital (shareholders of many global well-known companies such as apple and Alibaba). Fire coin implements strict risk control management and operates stably

According to the announcement, the registration and RMB recharge business will be suspended from now on, and all users will be informed before September 30 that they will stop trading. At the same time, all transactions of digital assets against RMB will be graally stopped before October 31

this is displayed in the usdt trading area, which means that you don't have enough usdt to buy bitcoin. BTC / usdt means buying BTC with usdt, so your usdt stock depends on how much BTC you can buy< br />
