Bitcoin code reproduction
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
you can't modify this
because this source code records the development process of bitcoin along the way, the problems encountered in the mining process and the mining difficulty
there is open source code to mine, so no one can change it
warm tips:
1. According to the notice and announcement issued by the people's Bank of China and other departments, virtual currency is not issued by monetary authorities, does not have monetary attributes such as legal compensation and compulsion, is not a real currency, does not have the same legal status as currency, and cannot and should not be used as currency in the market, Citizens' investment and transaction of virtual currency are not protected by law

Find the code on the bitcoin system, and you can dig bitcoin if you find the code
every other time point, the bitcoin system will generate a random code on the system node, and all computers in the Internet can search for the code. Whoever finds the code will proce a block, and then get a bitcoin. This process is often called mining. Computing this random code requires a lot of GPU operations, so the miners purchase a large number of graphics cards to get bitcoin profits more quickly, which is also an important reason for the recent shortage of graphics cards

characteristics of bitcoin
The total amount is limited, only 21 million BTC2. Anyone can issue bitcoin, but it is more and more difficult
