How long does BTC last
It was officially born on January 3, 2009
since 2015, the future of bitcoin has become more and more uncertain. On the one hand, bitcoin fell as much as 55.55% against RMB last year; In 2015, bitcoin fell by more than 30% against the RMB in the first half of January alone
bitcoin's "falling" reflects the "self-healing" of its value after "fanaticism" to a certain extent. According to statistics, in 2013, bitcoin rose from 1 ∶ 13.59 to 1 ∶ 731, with an annual increase of 5300%. This speculative driven inflation has affected the virtual currency property on which bitcoin relies
on the one hand, no country has defined it as a legal currency. On the other hand, in 2014, the US dollar rose significantly, and the prices of oil and bulk commodities fell correspondingly. The price trend of bitcoin is the same as that of the latter, becoming part of the asset allocation of some speculators, which highlights that its asset attribute is far greater than the monetary attribute
extended data
Security and credit risk have also become the reasons for the decline of investor confidence. Mt. GOx, once the world's largest bitcoin exchange, claimed in March last year that it had lost all its assets e to hacker attacks. Recently, it was revealed that its lost bitcoin was probably e to internal system manipulation
the regulatory environment of bitcoin is not optimistic, and Russia, Thailand and other countries have begun to implement strict control on it. In addition, the global stock market performed well last year, resulting in the diversion of bitcoin investment funds, and the crazy "mining" activities also rapidly increased the supply of bitcoin, which may lead to a trend of oversupply in the short term, leading to a sharp drop in the price of bitcoin
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)
does each node have complete blockchain data? You mean a user node? A user node needs to keep the of the block head of the longest workload proof chain, so it knows the data of all the block heads. It can move forward to know all the data on the block chain, but not all of them are saved. A block header is very small, only 80 bytes, which can be saved completely, because the generation of nodes is very slow. Even with the passage of time, the amount is not too large now.
the reason why we need six confirmations is that it is more difficult to obtain the optimal solution (to prevent single node fraud). One block may also be able to get an optimal solution, and it is basically impossible to get six blocks together. It has nothing to do with bifurcation
first of all, bitcoin is not created one by one. Bitcoin is made up of one account book after another. As long as you can record one account book, the system will reward you accordingly (starting from 2009, after four years, one will reward 50 bitcoins, another four years, one will reward 25 bitcoins, and so on), Because the account book records the transaction information, the transaction fees generated by the transaction also belong to the bookkeeper. Such a good thing, of course, everyone wants to keep accounts. At this time, the more wonderful thing will come. The system will put a mathematical problem every ten minutes. Whoever works out first will have the right to keep accounts. They can keep accounts and get bitcoin generated by keeping accounts
then the generated bitcoin will be saved in your wallet address. You can transfer the bitcoin in the address to EXX. There are not only bitcoin, but also more valuable currencies. Of course, you need to choose
investment is risky, and we should cherish it
According to the current computing power of the whole network, it takes 54436.5t of computing power to dig a bitcoin 24 hours, that is, one bitcoin a day< it requires 746 mining machines with the latest 73t capacity on the market to work together for 24 hours
the cost of mining mainly includes (mining machine cost / power cost). Now the latest miner is 22650 yuan, a miner consumes 77 kwh per day. At present, the price of mining machinery on the market is about 0.36 yuan, 28 yuan per day. The cost of mining bitcoin = mining machine price (22650)
mining bitcoin requires a professional site "mine" to place mining machines. The construction cost of placing about 3000 mining machines in a small professional mine is about 300 watts
extended data
unable to mine at home
the noise of 60-80 decibels will be proced by the mining machine in the working process. Mining at home is not feasible, the miner needs 24 hours of endless operation, so the temperature of the miner will be very high, the maximum temperature can reach 80 degrees. Therefore, mining needs a good environment to rece the temperature. Household electricity and electricity charges are high, and the cost is higher than the income. In addition, mining has a certain degree of professionalism, professionals need to carry out certain operation and maintenance to ensure the normal operation of the mining machine
the key to rece the mining cost is to purchase mining machines in batches and low electricity charges. Professional mine is built to ensure the operation of mining machinery. At present, the mainstream mining machinery manufacturers are bitcontinental Technology Co., Ltd. in Beijing and Jianan Yun Technology Co., Ltd. in Hangzhou. Mining machinery is proced in the form of appointment in futures. It is difficult for indivials to buy Mining machinery in small quantities on the official website. After years of development, the mining machinery market has formed a complete instrial chain. The price of mining machinery fluctuates with the price of money, and the power resources are basically distributed in the cheap western region. Getting cheap electricity prices requires personal resource advantages
