How much storage does bitcoin miner need
You can't dig in a day. It takes 2000 years
the global unified computing difficulty of bitcoin is 2621404453 (expected to change in two days). It takes more than 2000 years for a 2.5GHz CPU to work out a bitcoin
in order to make the graphics card fully loaded for a long time, the power consumption will be quite high, and the electricity bill will be higher and higher. Many professional mines at home and abroad are operated in areas with extremely low electricity charges, such as hydropower stations, while more users can only mine at home or in ordinary mines, so the electricity charges are not cheap. Even in a certain residential area in Yunnan, there was a case of crazy mining, which led to a large area trip of the residential area, and the transformer was burned

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 bitcoin network will generate a certain amount of bitcoin as block reward to reward the person who gets the answer
when bitcoin was born in 2009, block rewards were 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
the power consumption of bitcoin mining machines is different according to different machines take Shenma 68T, the fastest mining machine in wet season, as an example. Suppose that the electricity charge is 0.22 per kilowatt hour in half a year in wet season and 0.34 per kilowatt hour in dry season, the wall power consumption of Shenma 68T's second-hand machine is 3264w, and the actual power consumption is 3500W, then the daily power consumption of a Shenma M20S 68T machine is 3.524 = 84 degrees, Annual power consumption 84 * 365 = 30660 degrees
according to the latest mining difficulty, a Shenma 68T machine can dig 0.00064836 BTC a day, and 10 machines can dig 2.366514 coins a year. The mining difficulty of the premise remains unchanged, but according to the current situation, it is assumed that the mining difficulty will increase by 30% from now to next June, and by 2.5% every month. It is estimated that 85% of the original coins should be g, that is, 2.012 coins. Ten machines of Shenma 68T can dig almost 2 coins a year
to sum up, the power consumption of ten Shenma 68T machines in a year is 306600 kwh, which can dig almost two coins

the risk of mining machine
1. Hardware expenditure
< P > mining is actually a competition of performance and equipment. Some mining machines are composed of more such graphics card arrays. With tens or even hundreds of graphics cards, the hardware price and other costs are very high, There is considerable expenditure in miningin addition to the display card burning machines, some ASIC (application specific integrated circuit) professional mining machines are also put into the battlefield. ASIC is specially designed for hash operation, and the computing power is quite strong. Moreover, because their power consumption is far lower than that of the display card, they are easier to form scale, and the power cost is also lower. It is difficult for single chip display to compete with these mining machines, This kind of machine costs more
2. Currency security
the withdrawal of bitcoin requires hundreds of keys, and most people will record this long string of numbers on the computer, but the frequent problems such as hard disk damage will make the key permanently lost, which also leads to the loss of bitcoin
3. 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
mining is a technical activity, which tests the performance of CPU and GPU. Now on the market, the machine specially optimized for the calculation algorithm of the generation of bitcoin is the miner. At present, it takes about 16000 to buy a state-of-the-art S9 miner on 58btc. There are also special management services, which can save all kinds of troubles. If the owner wants to buy a miner on a certain treasure and do it by himself, he is advised not to dig. You know the reason.
First of all, if the home computer is used to calculate bitcoin, even if the configuration is high, it will take several days to dozens of days. It may come out with a string of effective bitcoin (that is, bitcoin), and then it can be traded through the market of circulating bitcoin
special bit code operation requires a lot of graphics resources, so there are so-called mining machines, as shown in the figure below
this is a miner, which is specially used for mining. Such a miner may not be able to dig a bitcoin a day; The price of a mining machine is at least about 20000 RMB, and mining is a very power consuming project. All the graphics cards are running with full load, and the electricity charge will be very high
so don't blindly follow this kind of thing, it's not something that ordinary people can dig up with their home computers
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. It is one of the ways to get bitcoin that users download software from personal computer and then run specific algorithm to get corresponding bitcoin after communicating with remote server.
