BTC quantity

1.

There are only 21 million bitcoins

"graphics card mining" is a joke. In fact, it is running a specific algorithm to generate bitcoin through a large number of calculations

{rrrrrrr}

extended materials:

the concept of bitcoin was first proposed by Nakamoto in 2009. According to Nakamoto's idea, the open source software was designed and released, and the P2P network on it was constructed. Bitcoin is a kind of P2P digital currency. Point to point transmission means a decentralized payment system

unlike most currencies, bitcoin does not rely on specific currency institutions. It is generated by a large number of calculations based on specific algorithms. Bitcoin economy uses the distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions, and uses the design of cryptography 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. 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 21 million

bitcoin can be cashed and converted into the currency of most countries. Users can use bitcoin to buy some virtual items, such as clothes, hats and equipment in online games. As long as someone accepts it, they can also use bitcoin to buy real-life items

on February 26, 2014, Joe Manchin, a Democratic senator from West Virginia, issued an open letter to a number of regulatory authorities of the US federal government, hoping that the relevant authorities would pay attention to the status quo of bitcoin's encouraging illegal activities and disrupting the financial order, and demanded that actions be taken as soon as possible to completely ban the electronic currency

from 12:00 noon on January 24, 2017, China's three major bitcoin platforms officially began to collect transaction fees

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

extended data

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

3. The total amount remains unchanged. It's easy to understand that the total number of bitcoins will not change. Developers are public, but they don't have private ones.
but they can be divided down, and there's nothing hard to understand. I have 1 yuan in my wallet. I can also say that I have 10 Jiao, 100 Fen, 1000 Li, 10000 milli, 100000 silk, 1000000 Hu, 10000000 micro. No matter what the unit of measurement is, I will neither become richer nor buy more, nor have any impact on the economy.

4. The total amount is 21 million, about one block is proced every 10 minutes, and the number of bitcoins in each block is 12.5 after being halved twice, that is to say, 12.5 bitcoins are proced every 10 minutes

5. Bitcoin, 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.

6. 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

21 million. Now the price of bitcoin is almost 70000

8. Complete mining route:

1-75: copper mine will be found in the birthplace
75-125: segenite in wetland, tin ore and igneous ore (in spider hole)
125-175: alx highland, Nano iron mine (walking along the mountains)
175-245: there are two choices
① in the three holes of Filas: each hole basically has 3-4 secret silver
② it is mainly concentrated in the east of the wilderness, where there are JY Dragons: there are iron, secret silver and real silver
you can practice until 245
245: go to the fat man hole above LM stronghold, there are black iron, Se silver and secret silver, A lot of them have been trained until 275
275: you can dig fuser silver and start to make money. Ha ha
there are also two choices
①: East plague, there are five points to brush fuser silver on the Internet, And the chance of getting out of arcane crystal is high
②: go to the hole of the three JY worms in xlss (LR DZ small D is recommended) and each of them has 4-6 fuser silver

after 300, you can mix in Outland to 375!

9. Yes, when it was released, it showed that its constant number was 21 million. With the passage of time and the efforts of the miners, the number left on the market is less than 2.5 million.

10. At present, the circulation of bitcoin is about 11 million

bitcoin does not have a centralized issuer, but is calculated and generated by network nodes. Anyone can participate in the proction of bitcoin

but bitcoin is not issued in unlimited quantity, and its circulation will be controlled by software algorithms. According to relevant algorithms, the more bitcoins there are, the more difficult it will be to make new ones.
