1.

The following is the distribution chart of computing power:

the computing power of bitcoin is mainly controlled by some mine owners in the world, and the computing power of retail investors is very small, almost negligible. The computing power of China's mining pool even accounts for more than 80%, and China's voice is increasing

however, many digital currencies no longer need to be mined. Some digital currencies will be directly sent to investors through ICO, and Puyin is one of the representatives, but these digital currencies generally correspond to real assets

recently, "bitcoin broke through $8000" has been on the hot search. For a while, bitcoin rose, reborn rose sharply, and Ethereum led the rise... A week later, this big play dominated by bitcoin didn't seem to come to an end, and the trading volume was once pushed up to 100 billion US dollars

in the investment world, "madness" and "fear" coexist. Today's "madness" stems from last year's long-term "fear". However, this time, coincola Cola Research Institute tracks and analyzes the technical indicators behind the rising market, and deconstructs the "passion" of the market with the "rationality" of data< (1) mining and bitcoin price

start with the relationship between mining and bitcoin. The core technology of bitcoin is "blockchain", which is connected by blocks. Each block corresponds to a bill. All transaction information and transfer records of bitcoin are recorded on the blockchain. Every other point in time, the bitcoin system will generate a random code on the system node. Due to distributed accounting, all computers on the Internet can search for the code. Whoever finds the code will generate a block and then get bitcoin. This process is mining. Calculating this random code requires a lot of GPU operations, so miners need to use mining machines with massive graphics cards to make profits

1. Bitcoin computing power: starting to pick up

remarks: June 2018-may 2019 bitcoin hash value

data source: bitcoin visual, coincola Research Institute

the above figure shows the bitcoin hash value. The hash value of the bitcoin network represents the computing power of the blockchain. The growth of computing power means that miners increase mining investment or increase the number of miners. Since the second half of 2018, the hash value has recovered from falling back to picking up, from 32eh / s at the end of the year to 50eh / s now, and the recent growth trend is remarkable. The continuous growth of bitcoin hash value (representing computing power) indicates that the market is optimistic about the future of bitcoin

2. Mining difficulty: stepped up

remarks: bitcoin difficulty from June 2018 to may 2019

data source: bitcoin visual, coincola Research Institute

the figure above shows bitcoin difficulty. Since 2019, the difficulty of bitcoin mining has increased in a step-by-step manner, from the low 5T to the current 7T. It can be seen that the rapid rise of bitcoin in this round has reced mining costs and increased market entry personnel. The increasing difficulty of mining means that there are profit opportunities in cryptocurrency market, and the market is generally optimistic< (2) the number of active addresses and transactions on the chain are important indicators reflecting the activity of cryptocurrency, which are highly correlated with the price of cryptocurrency

1. The number of active addresses on the bitcoin chain: a straight line rise

remarks: the number of active addresses on the bitcoin chain from June 2018 to may 2019

data source: coinmetrics, coincola Research Institute

active addresses refer to the addresses where transactions have taken place every day, that is, how many independent addresses conct transfer transactions on the chain every day. Since 2019, the number of active addresses on the bitcoin chain has been rising, especially in recent years. From 540.60143k in January to 832.592k now. It shows that the rapid growth of active users of cryptocurrency is a very positive signal for the market

2. The number of transactions on the bitcoin chain: continued to rise

remarks: the number of transactions on the bitcoin chain from June 2018 to may 2019

data source: bitinfo charts, coincola Research Institute

since 2019, the number of transactions on the bitcoin chain has continued to rise, from 235k in early 2019 to 374k now. Moreover, since April and may, after two rounds of sharp rise in the price of bitcoin, the number of transactions on the chain has remained at a high level, even showing signs of a short-term surge< (3) lightning network and bitcoin price

in essence, lightning network adds a layer to the basic layer of bitcoin blockchain in order to make the transaction fast and cheap. With the existence of lightning network, users can remit money to each other at any time and pay very little. Lightning network represents not only the technical level of bitcoin, but also the important basis of bitcoin value

1. Lightning network nodes: rapid growth

remarks: bitcoin lightning network nodes from January 2018 to may 2019

data source: bitinfo charts, coincola Research Institute

the test version of lightning network started on the bitcoin main network on March 15, 2018. The number of lightning network nodes was only 64 at the beginning of 2018 and increased to 2329 at the end of 2018. Since 2019, the number of lightning network nodes has increased rapidly, and now it has reached 4289. In less than half a year, the number of nodes has doubled. The continuous expansion of nodes indicates the continuous upgrading and development of bitcoin lightning network technology, which is an important indicator of bitcoin price

2. Lightning network capacity: speed up

remarks: bitcoin lightning network capacity from January 2018 to may 2019

data source: bitcoin visual, coincola Research Institute

the data above shows that as of May 15, 2019, bitcoin lightning network capacity has increased to 1039 BTC, equivalent to 833usd, while at the beginning of 2019, it is only 504btc, Lightning network capacity doubled, and the growth rate accelerated. This means that the expansion of bitcoin has been well solved in lightning network technology, which will help keep the payment channel active and effectively support the functional application of bitcoin

the performance of mining, chain trading and lightning network is closely related to the price of bitcoin. On the one hand, the rise of bitcoin price acts as a catalyst to stimulate its performance in mining, chain and lightning network; On the other hand, mining, chain trading and lightning network are the important cornerstone of bitcoin price trend and the important basis of bitcoin price expectation<

the prediction about the collapse time of bitcoin
yesterday, he discussed bitcoin with people, and then suddenly found that the surge brought by the listing of futures may be the pit g by some big institutions, Bitcoin could collapse shortly after CME's CBOE listing. After the listing, the price will maintain a certain stability in a certain range
3. The transaction cost of bitcoin is generally between 0.0001-0.0005btc. Of course, the amount accepted by each miner and miner's Association is different. Sometimes, a large amount of bitcoin transaction does not need a service charge, such as more than 100btc. Small transactions below 0.01btc will be charged a certain amount of fees. Of course, some bitcoin clients can set bitcoin transaction fee. If you set the transaction fee very low, the transaction confirmation time will be very long
first of all, we should understand that this service charge is given to miners to encourage them to continue mining and provide enough computing power for bitcoin, so as to ensure the security of bitcoin network. At present, the main income of miners is to get BTC reward by creating new blocks, but the reward is halved every four years. As time goes on, bitcoin transaction fee will graally replace bitcoin reward
under what circumstances should the handling charge be paid? What's the amount

bitcoin system has a series of network rules, including the handling charge rules, which are "what the client should do". When you use bitcoin client (wallet, bitcoin QT) to send bitcoin, the whole process is roughly divided into the following steps:

1. Prepare the bitcoin you want to send

the client is responsible for collecting the balance of bitcoin in your wallet (bitcoin QT) to prepare for payment, Because every bitcoin you receive is in your wallet until you spend it

if you withdraw 3btc and 2btc twice in okcoin bitcoin, their records in your wallet are independent, that is, a 3btc and a 2btc, instead of merging them into 5btc (the wallet only records transaction details, but does not merge the balance, but you can see the total balance on the interface of the wallet), As time goes on, you will accumulate a lot of bitcoin in your wallet. It is conceivable that there should be thousands of such records in okcoin bitcoin wallet. So when you send bitcoin, the wallet must decide which of the above records are most suitable for this sending

the bitcoin you get in a transaction is called "inputs" and the bitcoin you spend is called "outputs". There are multiple inputs and outputs in your wallet

2. Prevent a large number of micro payments from impacting the network

if you recharge the okcoin bitcoin trading platform less than 0.01btc (including the fund changes inside your wallet), you must pay a handling charge of 0.0001. When preparing your payment amount, the wallet has an established rule, that is, when preparing the payment amount in many inputs, try to avoid the amount change less than 0.01btc (for example, if you want to recharge 5.005btc to okcoin bitcoin, the wallet should choose 3 + 2.005 or 1 + 1 + 3.005 instead of 5 + 0.005)

3. The larger the amount, the higher the age of the currency, the higher the priority

if the amount you send is too small or your bitcoin has just been mined, then your transfer is no longer free. Each transaction will be assigned a priority, which is determined by the degree of currency, the number of bytes and the number of transactions. Specifically, for each input, the client will first multiply the number of bitcoins by the time they exist in the block (currency age, age), and then divide all the procts by the size of the transaction (in bytes). The calculation formula is: priority = sum (input)_ value_ in_ base_ units * input_ age)/size_ in_ If the calculation result is less than 0.576, then the transaction must pay the handling fee. This is why you need to add a 0.0001 when you withdraw with okcoin bitcoin, because the bitcoin transfer in okcoin wallet is frequent, and the time of bitcoin in the block is relatively short, so you need to pay a handling charge. If you do have a large number of small inputs, such as small miners, and want to transfer them out for free, you can add a large amount of bitcoin with a large currency age, and the average priority will be increased, so that bitcoin can be transferred out for free

4. Charge per kilobyte

at the end of the transfer, the client calculates the size of the transfer (in bytes), which generally depends on the amount of input and output. The calculation formula is as follows: 148 × Input amount + 34 × Output amount + 10. If the size of the transfer exceeds 10000 bytes, but the priority meets the free standard, you can still enjoy the free transfer, otherwise you need to pay the handling charge. The cost per 1000 bytes is 0.0001btc by default, but you can also add it in the client by opening the tab "settings & gt; Options & gt; The main purpose is to adjust the handling charge. If the service charge you are setting is less than 0.0001, BTC is calculated as 0.0001. When this rule applies, it will replace the rule in step 2 instead of accumulating.

When bitcoin nodes connect with each other, they will get transactions they don't have from each other. But because bitcoin has accumulated a large number of transactions for a long time, it is very difficult for two nodes to compare which transactions you are missing / which transactions I am missing one by one

to solve this problem, Nakamoto Tsung invented the important technology of block chain. Nodes use blocks to synchronize transactions, which ensures the data consistency of all nodes, and ensures the uniqueness of the blockchain by competing for block packing rights (that is, mining)

① a block and blockchain
a packet formed by a transaction over a period of time is called a block. On average, bitcoin generates a block every 10 minutes, and each block is linked to the previous block to form a blockchain


② the transaction data is synchronized with the block as a unit
the block is numbered from 1, so after node a connects with node B, it is convenient to synchronize the transaction data as long as the block number height of both parties is checked. For example, if node A's own block height is 100 and node B's block height is 110, all it needs to do is request B to synchronize the 10 blocks 101-110<

③ reward for packed blocks
in order to ensure that there are nodes to pack bitcoin transactions, bitcoin rules stipulate that nodes of packed transactions will receive bitcoin as reward
A. part of the package reward comes from the transaction fee paid by the transaction creator (100-1000 transaction fee per KB)
B. the other part comes from the initial distribution of 21 million bitcoins. At the beginning, the reward is 50 bitcoins for each block. After that, the reward will be halved for every 210000 blocks (about four years). Until about 2140, the reward for each block is less than 1, and the total reward for each block is 21 million bitcoins, This is the source of the total amount of 21 million bitcoins (2099999.97690000 to be exact)
after 2140, the package reward will only come from the transaction fee paid by the transaction creator<

④ competition for block packing right
node packing transaction only needs to consume very low-cost network and computing resources. The existence of packing reward (at present, the packing reward for each block is 25 bitcoin, about 40000 yuan), makes a large number of nodes want to pack transactions. In order to ensure the uniqueness of the blockchain, bitcoin rules stipulate that nodes use a method similar to "coin tossing" to compete for the right of transaction packaging. Nodes constantly toss coins. Whoever first throws the results that meet the rules will get the right to pack the transaction in this block, as well as the package reward of this block

5.

The original intention of Nakamoto's design of bitcoin is to build a point-to-point trading network that is decentralized, transaction information can not be tampered with, and the total amount of money is constant, so as to solve the problems of excessive issuance of legal currency and inflation

this is the value of bitcoin's initial design, to keep the purchasing power of money

But later, the development of bitcoin went against Nakamoto's idea. In the past nine years, the price of bitcoin soared by millions of times, creating countless myths of sudden wealth and driving another instry mining

the value of bitcoin has become a tool for "sudden wealth". More and more people join the bitcoin network, hoping to achieve financial freedom. Digital cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin have become investment procts, like diamonds or gold

by purchasing bitcoin, people can achieve the purpose of wealth appreciation and asset preservation in many troubled areas. At the same time, many people make use of the fluctuation of bitcoin price to speculate, such as moving bricks, making bands and so on

another important value of bitcoin can not be ignored is blockchain, the underlying technology of bitcoin. Because of the popularity of bitcoin, many companies and indivials begin to pay attention to blockchain, and constantly try to use blockchain technology to change the existing business and create new value. It is with the help of bitcoin that blockchain has achieved such rapid development

bitcoin is also a great social experiment for all mankind, which promotes the reform of the financial instry and gives many original things a new perspective

6. It is often said that you can send bitcoin to any corner of the earth for free. Generally, you can transfer bitcoin for free, but in some cases, you have to pay transaction fees to complete the transfer. In version 0.8.3 bitcoin wallet, the default is 0.0001 bitcoin transfer fees. This service charge is awarded to miners to encourage them to continue mining and provide enough computing power for bitcoin to ensure the security of bitcoin network. At present, the main income of miners is to get 25btc reward by creating new blocks, but this reward is halved every four years. As time goes on, bitcoin transaction fee reward will graally replace the reward for creating new blocks. Under what circumstances do you need to pay the handling charge? How much does bitcoin charge? What is the handling charge? Bitcoin system has a series of network rules, including fee rules, which are "what the client should do". When you use bitcoin client (wallet, bitcoin QT) to send bitcoin, the whole process is roughly divided into the following steps:
1. Prepare the bitcoin you want to send. The client is responsible for collecting the balance of bitcoin in your wallet (bitcoin QT) to prepare for payment, because every bitcoin you receive is stored in your wallet until you spend it. If you receive two payments from 3btc and 2btc, their records in the wallet are independent of each other, that is, a 3btc and a 2btc, rather than merging them into 5btc (the wallet only records transaction details and does not merge the balance, but you can see the total balance on the interface of the wallet). As time goes on, many bitcoins of different amounts will accumulate in your wallet, So when you send bitcoin, the wallet has to decide which bitcoin is the most suitable for this sending. The bitcoin you get in a transaction is called "inputs" and the bitcoin you spend is called "outputs". There are multiple inputs and outputs in your wallet
2. If your outputs are less than 0.01btc (including the fund changes inside your wallet), you have to pay a handling charge of 0.0001, even if you transfer it to yourself. The wallet has an established rule when preparing your payment amount, that is, when preparing the payment amount in many inputs, try to avoid the amount change less than 0.01btc (for example, if you want to pay 5.005btc, the wallet should choose 3 + 2.005 or 1 + 1 + 3.005 instead of 5 + 0.005)
3. The larger the amount, the higher the age, and the higher the priority. If the amount you send is too small or your bitcoin has just been mined, then your transfer is no longer free. Each transaction will be assigned a priority, which is determined by the degree of currency, the number of bytes and the number of transactions. Specifically, for each input, the client will first multiply the number of bitcoins by the time they exist in the block (currency age, age), and then divide all the procts by the size of the transaction (in bytes). The calculation formula is: priority = sum (input)_ value_ in_ base_ units * input_ age)/size_ in_ If the calculation result is less than 0.576, then the transaction must pay the handling fee. If you do have a large amount of small input and want to transfer it out for free, you can add a large amount of bitcoin with a large age, which will increase the average priority, so that you can transfer out bitcoin for free
4. Charge per kilobyte. At the end of the transfer, the client will detect the size of the transfer (in bytes). The size generally depends on the amount of input and output. The calculation formula is as follows: 148 * input amount + 34 * output amount + 10. If the size of the transfer exceeds 10000 bytes, but the priority meets the free standard, you can still enjoy the free transfer, Otherwise, there will be a handling charge. The cost of 1000 bytes is 0.0001btc by default, but you can also add it in the client. Open the tab "settings & gt; Options & gt; The main purpose is to adjust the handling charge. If the service charge you are setting is less than 0.0001, BTC is calculated as 0.0001.
7. In view of the above problems, there are three points worth pondering: first, why can't Chinese enterprises carry out the rule of law as effectively as foreign enterprises? Second, why do Chinese enterprises have to learn the rule of law like foreign enterprises? Third, is the success or failure of an enterprise important in theory or effect? If an enterprise boss blindly learns to imitate other people's enterprise management mode and ignores the enterprise's own growth environment, then your enterprise management will go into the wrong area
Why do small enterprises need law and large enterprises need law? Because enterprises need high human cost to improve, supervise and implement the management system. And the department work of small enterprises is not saturated, so the management can not proce benefits, so the boss is unable to support the human cost. If there are too many managers in an enterprise, not only the boss will not make money, but also the enterprise will be in debt. Basically, because the management has the final say, the rule of law management is not effective. For example, foreign employees can leave work without asking about the company. Is Chinese enterprises OK? A lot of boss's private affairs have become employees' work. After work in the evening, maybe the boss will call you back to work overtime. Can the staff not go? Can the boss stop calling? No, because the enterprise is too small, there are too many things, and it's too urgent. The boss is busy, but who doesn't he call you? This is China's national conditions. Foreign employees can shut down after work. Chinese employees can try to shut down. Maybe they will ask you to pack and leave the next day. Therefore, Chinese enterprises should not blindly learn from foreign enterprise management mode, because you are in China, not in foreign countries
Why do small businesses need to be governed by people? Because most small business owners can't afford to pay high wages, most of the talents they recruit are employees who are attracted by their own human relations. People help the boss to work regardless of pay for their emotional relationship. If the boss controls everything and doesn't trust the employees, who else will want to work with you. Therefore, the success of small businesses basically depends on the boss's personality charm in the leaders and influence people, rather than on the system in the managers. Although this kind of management method is unscientific, it is efficient. As a start-up enterprise, the effect is more important than the truth, so the little boss must not superstition what too deep enterprise management, suitable is the best
Why do large enterprises need the rule of law? Because the enterprise is big, there are many people, the boss's personal ability is limited, his language and behavior influence is also limited. If the enterprise does not have an effective management mechanism, then many important documents or important decisions of the enterprise can not be effectively implemented or communicated. There will be a big difference between what the employees do and what the boss thinks. So large enterprises need the rule of law. In addition, the advantage of the rule of law is to solve the unfair phenomenon of enterprises. Let employees compete and grow in a fair, just, open, reasonable and legal market environment. We have the responsibility to bear together, the fault to punish together, the goal to struggle together, the achievement to share together
the problem with most enterprises in China is that the boss does not know under what circumstances the enterprise should be governed by man and under what circumstances the enterprise should be governed by law. Because the development of Chinese enterprises is basically a process from the rule of man to the rule of law. Too early or too late rule of law will be detrimental to the development of enterprises. Therefore, too many enterprises in China either go bankrupt under the rule of man or disappear under the rule of law. Because the rule of man is too loose and the rule of law is too strict and cautious, enterprises often die as soon as they are in charge and mess as soon as they are released. The boss does not know whether the rule of law is good or the rule of man is good. More people lose prestige, less people lose cohesion. If you rule by law too early, you will be alone; If you rule by man too late, you will lose power. Therefore, it is a difficult process for an enterprise to change from rule by man to rule by law. First, the awareness of the boss, second, the determination of the boss, third, the courage of the boss, and at the same time, the opportunity should be grasped. Only in this way can the enterprise effectively transition from the rule of man to the rule of law, so as to make the enterprise develop healthily!
8. At present, the latest market value of bitcoin should be more than $1 trillion
9. It can be purchased from longkuang technology's official website. Now it seems that it is mainly selling cloud computing power. It has launched a coin website in cooperation with China's bitcoin
the official website is: http://www.lketc.com/

bitcoin is a consensus network, contributing to a new payment system and a fully digital currency. It is the first decentralized peer-to-peer payment network, which is controlled by its users without a central management organization or middleman. From the user's point of view, bitcoin is much like Internet cash. Bitcoin can also be regarded as the most outstanding three style bookkeeping system.
