Do you need money to dig bitcoin
Development:
1. Bitcoin (bitcoin) is a kind of network virtual currency, which can buy real-life goods. It is characterized by decentralization, anonymity, and can only be used in the digital world. It does not belong to any country or financial institution, and is not subject to geographical restrictions. It can be exchanged anywhere in the world. Therefore, it is used as a money laundering tool by some criminals. In 2013, the U.S. government recognized the legal status of bitcoin, making the price of bitcoin soar. In China, on November 19, 2013, a bitcoin was equivalent to 6989 yuan
2. On January 7, 2014, Taobao announced that it would ban the sale of Internet virtual currencies such as bitcoin and lightcoin from January 14. West Virginia Democratic Senator Joe; On February 26, 2014, Joe Manchin issued an open letter to a number of regulatory authorities of the US federal government, hoping that relevant institutions would pay attention to the current situation of bitcoin encouraging illegal activities and disrupting the financial order, and demanded that actions be taken as soon as possible to completely ban the electronic currency. On January 11, 2017), the Shanghai headquarters of the people's Bank of China and the Shanghai Municipal Finance Office carried out on-site inspection of bitcoin China.
1. First of all, connect the network cable, plug the network cable into the network cable interface of the mining machine, and remember to plug it tightly. Only when the miner is connected to the Internet, there is no limit to the broadband
extended data
users can buy bitcoin, at the same time, they can also use computers to "mine" bitcoin according to a large number of calculations. When users "mine" bitcoin, they need to use the computer to search for 64 bit numbers, and then compete with other gold miners by repeatedly solving puzzles to provide the required numbers for the bitcoin network. If the user's computer successfully creates a set of numbers, then they will get 25 bitcoins
e to the decentralized programming adopted by the bitcoin system, only 25 bitcoins can be obtained every 10 minutes, and by 2140, the maximum number of bitcoins in circulation will reach 21 million. In other words, bitcoin system is able to achieve self-sufficiency, resist inflation through coding, and prevent others from destroying these codes
It's not against the law
The laws and administrative regulations in China do not prohibit the proction, holding and legal circulation of bitcoin, nor do they prohibit the sale of bitcoin mining machines2. The investment and transaction of "virtual currency" represented by bitcoin are on the rise. For this kind of virtual goods generated in the Internet environment after the development of Internet technology, there are policy and commercial risks in related transactions. However, under the premise of not violating the mandatory provisions of laws and administrative regulations, the contract signed by the parties is a valid contract
3. Bitcoin is generated by "miner" and "mining", and "miner" can be assumed by anyone in any place in the world. "Mining" is a process in which "miner" provides certain computer computing power according to the open source software provided by the designer, and obtains the special solution of the equation through complex mathematical operations, The miner who gets the special solution gets a certain amount of bitcoin reward
Because bitcoin is based on workload proof, it is related to computing power. To have computing power, we need to consume power, so its power consumption is very large. It is precisely because of such a large power consumption that the safe and stable operation of bitcoin system can be guaranteed
extended information:
according to the data of btc.com website, up to now, the computing power of the whole bitcoin network is about 51.65 eh / s, which is equivalent to 1.84 million bitcoin S15 (28T computing power, 1596w power) mining machines in operation, and the daily power consumption is about 69.92 million kwh. Divided by the current proction of 1800 bitcoins per day, excluding other costs, each bitcoin will consume 38800 kwh of electricity. "
from this point of view, although the current price of bitcoin is expensive, the cryptocurrency market website coinmarketcap.com shows that the current unit price is about $7900, but the cost of mining a bitcoin is not low at all
- - talking about the mining cost of bitcoin -
the first thing to consider is the cost if you want to make money. If the profit is greater than the cost, it is worth doing. We all know how much bitcoin costs, so let's calculate the cost
1. Mining machine cost: the "number" of bitcoin is a problem-solving process, which can't be calculated by human brain alone. Therefore, mining people need to buy mining machines and keep calculating. The more mining machines, the stronger the computing power
2. Electricity charges: mining machines are big consumers of high power. How much electricity does it consume? Let's put it this way. At present, the electricity consumption of bitcoin and Ethereum mining has surpassed Jordan, Iceland, Libya and other small countries, ranking 71st among all countries and regions in the world. You want to cry when electricity is expensive
3. The rent of the place where the mining machine is placed: because the mining machine consumes a lot of electricity, the power supply load of ordinary residential buildings can not be guaranteed at all, so the mining must rent a commercial site separately, and the rent is much more expensive than that of ordinary residential buildings
4. Operation cost: in order to ensure the computing power, the high-power mining machine needs to work 24 hours, which requires someone to maintain it at any time. When the mining machine is in trouble, the cost of hiring someone is required; At the same time, the mining machine is very delicate. If it is too hot or too cold, the vegetables will be stopped. Therefore, the measures of cold air and cold water insulation are needed to help the mining machine run. This is another expense
5. Mining machine update cost: because bitcoin is becoming more and more difficult to dig, the machine that was able to dig a month ago may not be able to dig anything today, and the market will also launch mining machines with greater computing power. The original mining machine is not worth money immediately. If you want to maintain computing power, you need to buy mining machines again
the above bitcoin mining costs all have a marginal effect, that is, the larger the volume is, the lower the corresponding cost will be. Therefore, some super large mines have been built
bitcoin g in the mine will enter the mine pool and be distributed by all participants. Large mines will be built in places where labor and electricity are cheap, such as Venezuela, the legendary miner's paradise, or Iceland, where the climate is favorable and electricity is cheap
as for the cost, everyone will be different. Let's take a look at an average: in 2017, according to the data of elite fixtures, a research institution, Venezuela is the cheapest of 115 mining countries, which is 513 US dollars, while South Korea is the most expensive, which is 26170 us dollars
China's mining cost is US $3172, which is relatively low among 115 countries. However, the cost is an average value. Large mines with low electricity prices must be much lower. If you are a lone ranger, the cost will rise sharply
in a word, if you really want to make money by mining, first of all, unless you are rich enough to build a mine with thousands of machines, you'd better join a mine to dig together. Although you have to share the money, it's still appropriate in the long run because it can greatly rece costs and improve computing power
secondly, whether you dig by yourself or join the mine, you must choose the place with low electricity cost, and the city with abundant hydropower resources is preferred, because hydropower is the cheapest source of power generation in China at present.
There are risks
on the one hand, the Internet real name system can become the "iron broom" to sweep away bad information, on the other hand, it will make all Internet platforms become "fat meat" in the eyes of hackers, increasing the risk of personal information leakage of Internet users
according to the analysis report on the situation of personal information leakage from websites in 2016 released by 360 patch day vulnerability platform in March 2017, 58.5% of the website vulnerabilities in 2016 will lead to the leakage of real name information, 62.4% of the website vulnerabilities will disclose behavior information, and the number of possible leaks can reach 4.23 billion and 4.01 billion
according to insiders, hackers often get users' registration information on Internet platforms and sell it to lawless elements by "scanning numbers and colliding libraries", but many platforms still lack effective defense measures against this "colliding library attack"
extended data:
holds up the "umbrella" of personal information for real name netizens
the major Internet platforms graally improve their own defense systems from both technical and regulatory aspects to prevent hacker attacks from leading to user information leakage. It is understood that a security team has been set up on an Internet shopping platform to discover high-level persistent threats on the internal network based on the security risk detection and identification of network security attacks, mine and detect phishing websites targeting buyers and businesses, and deal with them in a timely manner
the relevant departments of the state have successively issued various laws and regulations to ensure the information security of Internet users
"China's" decision on strengthening the protection of network information "," tort liability law "and its judicial interpretation and a series of legal provisions have repeatedly stressed the issue of personal information security. It can be seen that China's network information security and personal data security have been raised to the highest level of the country, and strict legal proceres and clear legal authorization are required for the use and collection of personal information. "
Zhu Wei, deputy director of the communication law research center of China University of political science and law, believes that under such a background, the comprehensive establishment of the real name system can actually strengthen the personal information security protection of users
the previous answer is to invest in bitcoin. The landlord asked to dig bitcoin. You didn't answer the question. Oh, you need machines to dig for bitcoin. The computing power of home PC is too low. According to the difficulty of more than 900 million, the computing power of home PC is generally between 100 m and 600 m. if you dig for bitcoin, you can't earn one tenth of the electricity bill, so you need mining machine, At present, the monthly income of 200g mining machine is about 7500, and the price of the machine is about 20000. But now the price tends to be stable, so it will not go up like it did a while ago. It is estimated that the price will be stable at about 3500 in the next few months. So the answer is to make money, it depends on what kind of machine you use to dig.
