2020 bitcoin graphics power table
1. Unlike most currencies, bitcoin is not issued by a specific monetary institution. It is generated by a large number of calculations based on a specific algorithm and is a virtual currency
2. In order to get bitcoin, you have to use computing machines, many of which are provided by AMD graphics card with high computing power. When bitcoin was hot, AMD's graphics cards were always in short supply, such as HD 7850, HD 7870, HD 5850, HD 5870, R7 270, R 280x, which are the best helpers of bitcoin
3. Later, when someone invented a mining machine that could get bitcoin more quickly, these graphics cards slowly withdrew from the mining stage
in other words, the computer made up of AMD high-speed graphics card was once the main platform for acquiring bitcoin. This is the relationship between them.
the concept of bitcoin was first proposed by Nakamoto in 2009. According to Nakamoto's idea, open source software was designed and released, and P2P network was built on it
bitcoin is a kind of P2P digital currency
bitcoin is not issued by a specific monetary institution. It is generated by a large number of calculations based on a specific algorithm. 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 number 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
this virtual currency only needs the computing power of the computer, and it has no technical content. Basically, it only needs to hang up to "generate" bitcoin, and bitcoin can be traded at any time, so as to transform it into real currency
if you want to get bitcoin, you need to download the special "mining software" and set it to start
In general, the computing power of GPU is much higher than that of CPU, and even the entry-level graphics card is much better than the top i7 series. So it indirectly tests the performance of the graphics card
