1. In order to understand the technical principle of bitcoin, we need to understand two important cryptographic techniques: hash code: it converts a long string into a fixed length string, and its conversion is irreversible, that is, it is impossible to guess the original string from hash code. Sha256 is mainly used in bitcoin protocol
public key system: corresponds to a public key and a private key, keeps the private key in the application and publishes the public key. When Party A transmits information to Party B, it can use Party A's private key to encrypt the information, and Party B can use Party A's public key to decrypt the information, so as to ensure that the third party cannot impersonate Party A to send the information; At the same time, when Party A transmits information to Party B, it is encrypted with Party B's public key and sent to Party B, and then Party B decrypts it with his own private key, so as to ensure that the third party cannot eavesdrop on the communication between the two people. RSA is the most common public key system, but the lliptic curve digital signature algorithm is used in bitcoin protocol. What's the difference between cash and bank account? Bitcoin is an electronic currency in BTC. In this article, it is also used to refer to the whole bitcoin system. Like opening an account in a bank, the corresponding concept in bitcoin is address. Everyone can have one or more bitcoin addresses, which are used to pay and collect money. Each address is a string that starts with 1. For example, I have two bitcoin accounts, and. A bitcoin account is uniquely determined by a pair of public key and private key. To save the account, you only need to save the private key file. Unlike bank accounts, banks keep all transaction records and maintain the book balance of each account, while bitcoin's transaction records are jointly maintained by the whole P2P network through a pre agreed protocol. How much money is in my account address? Although the current account balance can be seen by bitcoin software, unlike banks, there is no place to maintain the book balance of each address. It can only calculate the account balance in real time through all historical transactions. How do I pay? When I pay from address a to address B of the other party, the payment amount is e. at this time, both parties will announce the transaction information to each network node, telling address a to pay to address B, and the payment amount is e. In order to prevent the third party from forging the transaction information, the transaction information will be encrypted with the private key of address A. at this time, the network node receiving the transaction information can use the public key of address a to verify that the transaction information is indeed sent by address a. Of course, trading software will help us do these things, we just need to input the relevant parameters in the software. What will the network node do after receiving the transaction information? This is the most important part of the bitcoin system, which needs to be elaborated. For the sake of simplicity, only bitcoin protocol has been implemented. In the current version, each network node will save all transaction information synchronously. There are two kinds of transaction information in history, one is & quot; Verified & quot; The transaction information, that is, the verified transaction information, is stored in a series of "blocks". Each & quot; block" Is the previous & quot; bock" The ID of each block is the hash code of the hash code of the block and the new transaction information (see an actual block). The other category refers to those who also & quot; Unverified & quot; The transaction information just paid above belongs to this category. When a network node receives new unverified transaction information (possibly more than one), it can calculate the book balance of each address at that time because the node keeps all the transaction information in history, so it can calculate whether the transaction information is valid, that is, whether there is enough balance in the payment account. After eliminating the invalid transaction information, it first takes out the last & quot; block" Then, the unverified transaction information is combined with the ID, and a verification code is added to form a new "block". It needs a lot of calculation to build a new block, because it needs to calculate the verification code, so that the above combination becomes a block, that is, the first several bits of the hash code of the block are 1. At present, the first 13 bits need to be 1 (generally, the specific method is uncertain), which means that if the block is generated by enumeration method, the average number of enumerations is 16 ^ 13. Using CPU resources to generate a block is called "gold mining", because the proction of the block will get a certain reward, and the reward information has been included in the block. When a network node generates a new block, it will broadcast to other network nodes. However, this network block may not be accepted by the network, because it is possible that other network nodes have proced the block earlier. Only the earliest block or the block with the largest number of subsequent blocks is valid, and the remaining blocks are no longer used as the initial blocks of the next block. How does the other party confirm that the payment is successful? When the payment information is distributed to the network node, the network node begins to calculate whether the transaction is valid (that is, whether the account balance is enough to pay), and attempts to generate blocks containing the transaction information. When six blocks (one direct block and five subsequent blocks) contain the transaction information, the transaction information is considered "verified", so that the transaction is formally confirmed, and the other party can confirm the successful payment. A possible problem is that I will pay the balance of address a to address B, and at the same time pay to address C. If I only verify that the single comparison transaction is valid. At this point, my way of cheating is to generate six blocks including B to B and six blocks including C to C before the truth is revealed. Because I need a very long CPU time to generate a block, compared with the whole network, the probability of my cheating success is very small. What is the motivation of network nodes to proce blocks? As can be seen from the above description, in order to make the transaction information effective, the network node needs to generate 1 and 5 subsequent blocks to contain the transaction information, and such block generation is very CPU intensive. How to let other network nodes help to proce blocks as soon as possible? The answer is very simple. The agreement stipulates that BTC will be rewarded for the address where the block is proced, as well as the Commission promised by both parties. At present, the reward for procing a block is 50btc, which will be halved every four years in the future. For example, the reward will be 25btc from 2013 to 2016. Is the transaction anonymous? Yes, and No. All bitcoin transactions are visible. We can check all transaction records of each account, such as mine. But what's different from the banking monetary system is that everyone's account itself is anonymous, and everyone can open many accounts. In general, anonymity is not as good as it claims. But bitcoin has another advantage in doing black market trading: it can't be frozen. Even if the police trace a bitcoin address, there is nothing they can do unless they trace the computer used by the exchange based on the Internet address. How to ensure that bitcoin does not depreciate? Generally speaking, in the case of equivalent trading activities, the value of money is inversely proportional to the amount of money issued. Unlike the traditional money market, the central bank can determine the amount of money issued. Bitcoin does not have a central issuing institution. Only by procing blocks can we get a certain amount of BTC currency. Therefore, bitcoin's new amount of money depends on: 1. The speed of procing blocks: bitcoin's agreement stipulates that the difficulty of procing blocks is fixed at an average of 2016 every two weeks, about 10 minutes. Moore's law of doubling CPU speed every 18 months will not speed up the proction of block. 2. The number of rewards for block proction: at present, 50 BTC is awarded for each block proced, which is halved every four years. In 2013, 25 BTC is awarded, and in 2017, 12.5 BTC is awarded. Considering the above two factors, bitcoin's currency issuing speed is not controlled by any single node in the network. Its protocol makes the currency stock known in advance, and the maximum stock is only 21 million BTC
public key system: corresponds to a public key and a private key, keeps the private key in the application and publishes the public key. When Party A transmits information to Party B, it can use Party A's private key to encrypt the information, and Party B can use Party A's public key to decrypt the information, so as to ensure that the third party cannot impersonate Party A to send the information; At the same time, when Party A transmits information to Party B, it is encrypted with Party B's public key and sent to Party B, and then Party B decrypts it with his own private key, so as to ensure that the third party cannot eavesdrop on the communication between the two people.

2. Theoretically, the block reward generated every day is 12.5 (number of rewards per block) * 6 * 24 (6 blocks per hour, 24 hours per day) = 1800btc
bitcoin network generates one block every 10 minutes on average, and the reward for each block is currently 12.5. At the earliest time, 50 BTCs were awarded to each block, which was halved after 210000 blocks were excavated, about once every four years. It is expected that the next halving will be in May 2020, when the reward for each block will become 6.25

3. First of all, you need to understand the time point of bitcoin Mining:
a total of 2100W bitcoins are issued, and each block is generated for 10 minutes, and a block rewards a certain number of bitcoins. In the beginning, 50 bitcoins were awarded for each block of mining. In the future, the reward was halved for every 21000 blocks (about once every four years). Now, 12.5 bitcoins are awarded for each block generated. The generation time of each block is 10 minutes, but with the development of computer technology, now the mining calculation power is increasing, so the generation time of a block must be less than 10 minutes, which requires certain control measures to ensure this time. This measure is the difficulty of mining. If the output time of each block is less than 10 minutes, the difficulty of mining will be increased. If the output time is more than 10 minutes, the difficulty of mining will be reced. The difficulty adjustment time is 2016 blocks, that is, 2 weeks
after every 2016 blocks, all nodes will automatically adjust the mining difficulty according to a certain formula. This formula is obtained by comparing the latest time spent in 2016 blocks in this cycle with the expected time (20160 minutes, i.e. two weeks)
new difficulty = old difficulty * (time spent in the past 2016 blocks / 20160 minutes)

new difficulty = old difficulty * (time spent in the past 2016 blocks / 20160 minutes)
4. Bitcoin generates a block in an average of 10 minutes, not evenly distributed
a block is a record in the block chain, which contains and confirms the transactions to be processed. On average, a new block containing transactions is added to the block chain by mining every 10 minutes
Puyin, Laite coin, doggy coin and Ruibo coin all have their own blocks, and the transaction information will be recorded on the blockchain.

5. It's not sure that the fastest one will get these 25 coins, but the faster the calculation, the higher the probability of getting these 25 coins ~
and it's not necessarily 25 coins every 10 minutes. The generation speed will be slower and slower, until 21 million bitcoins are g out, there will be no new coins. When the time comes, the miners can only make money from the service charges voluntarily paid by some people.
and it's not necessarily 25 coins every 10 minutes. The generation speed will be slower and slower, until 21 million bitcoins are g out, there will be no new coins. When the time comes, the miners can only make money from the service charges voluntarily paid by some people.
6. No, it's just a misunderstanding. The reward is based on the amount of computing power you contribute to the whole network
bitcoin mining is a distributed consensus system that includes the transaction data to be confirmed into the block chain to complete the confirmation of these transactions. By mining, the data in the block chain can be stored in chronological order, the neutrality of bitcoin network can be maintained, and different computers on the bitcoin network are allowed to agree on the system state. To be confirmed, a transaction must be packaged into a block that complies with very strict cryptographic rules and verified through bitcoin network. These rules can prevent the modification of existing blocks, because once there is a change, all blocks will be invalid. Mining is as difficult as winning the lottery. No one can easily and continuously add new blocks to the block chain. Therefore, no one can control what content is included in the block chain or replace part of the content in the block chain to rece their cost. At present, bitcoin mining needs a professional Avalon miner.

7. Are you talking about bitcoin? If you are talking about other cryptocurrencies, I can only tell you that most of them are deceptive and pyramid schemes
bitcoin is also proced by mining. Mining is the process of consuming computing resources to process transactions, ensuring network security and keeping everyone's information synchronized in the network. It can be understood as the data center of bitcoin. The difference lies in its completely decentralized design. Miners operate all over the world, and no one can control the network. This process is called "mining" because it is similar to gold panning, because it is also a temporary mechanism for issuing new bitcoin. However, unlike gold panning, bitcoin mining provides rewards for services that ensure the safe operation of payment networks. After the last bitcoin, mining is still necessary
however, at present, the profit margin of mining is very small, and the mining cost has approached or even exceeded the currency price. Now mining is mainly about electricity price and energy consumption. Of course, it also needs the support of faith. Go to bitcoin home to learn some basic bitcoin knowledge, so as not to be cheated.

8. In addition, because the source code of bitcoin client contains a code to automatically adjust the calculation difficulty, which can control the generation of a block every 10 minutes, there will be no case of digging out ahead of time
