Computing power of bitcoin mining machine
1. Machine cost: the cost of purchasing mining machine
2. Power cost: the power cost consumed by machine mining
3. Auxiliary costs: personnel maintenance, network, cable consumables, heat dissipation, etc.
for a simple example, take the mining machine of ant S9, which consumes less power on the market, for example, the calculation power is 13.5T, and the power consumption is 1400W
when the mining machine runs for 24 hours: 1.4kw * 24 = 33.6 degrees
Shenma m3, which consumes more power on the market, has a calculation power of 11.5t, The power consumption is 2150w
under 24-hour operation, the power consumption of a single machine is 2.15kw * 24 = 51.6oc
which is roughly equivalent to the power consumption of energy-saving air conditioning, but the bitcoin miner needs 24-hour uninterrupted operation, the power consumption of a single machine is very large after a year's calculation, and the step price cost of household electricity is too high, When the market is not good, the income may not be enough for the electricity expenditure, so at present, mining will choose to be hosted in the mine, which can get cheap electricity and rece the cost price of mining. The price below 30% is the ideal price, which can keep the price of bitcoin falling to a low level, and there is still some income< According to the current mining difficulty of bitcoin:
BTC revenue per ton: 1th / s * 24h = 0.00007087btc
calculated by the comprehensive 12t machine computing power, the daily output is:
0.00007087t * 12t = 0.00085044btc
then the time required for a single machine to dig a BTC:
1 / 0.00085044 = 1175 days
the time required for ten mining machines to dig a BTC:
1 / 0.0085044 = 117 days
100 days In other words, according to the current difficulty, it takes about three years for a single miner to proce a bitcoin, 3.9 months for ten miners to dig a bitcoin, and 11.7 days for a hundred miners to dig a bitcoin. The cost of a single miner is about 8500, Ten are around 85000, one hundred is 850000, less than one million, and one month's income is more than two bitcoins. According to the current price of bitcoin, the price is about 120000. So, although the income of bitcoin mining is not as good as before, it is still considerable compared with other investment projects
however, these benefits do not include decting the cost of electricity charges and later maintenance of machines, so the premise of mining is to find a mine with low electricity charges. If the quantity is large, we need to find a safe, reliable and stable mine. What's more, we need cheap electricity to lower the cost price.
You can't dig in a day. It takes 2000 years
the global unified computing difficulty of bitcoin is 2621404453 (expected to change in two days). It takes more than 2000 years for a 2.5GHz CPU to work out a bitcoin
in order to make the graphics card fully loaded for a long time, the power consumption will be quite high, and the electricity bill will be higher and higher. Many professional mines at home and abroad are operated in areas with extremely low electricity charges, such as hydropower stations, while more users can only mine at home or in ordinary mines, so the electricity charges are not cheap. Even in a certain residential area in Yunnan, there was a case of crazy mining, which led to a large area trip of the residential area, and the transformer was burned
extended data:
bitcoin network generates new bitcoin through "mining". In essence, the so-called "mining" is to use computers to solve a complex mathematical problem to ensure the consistency of bitcoin network distributed accounting system
bitcoin network will automatically adjust the difficulty of mathematical problems, so that the whole network can get a qualified answer about every 10 minutes. Then bitcoin network will generate a certain amount of bitcoin as block reward to reward the person who gets the answer
when bitcoin was born in 2009, block rewards were 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
Every 100 S4 bitcoin mining machines consume 900W of electricity per hour
Taking t2t-30t as an example, the calculation force of t2t-30t is 30t, and the power consumption is 2200W, that is, 2.2kW. The power consumption of a single miner in 24-hour operation is 2.2kW * 24 = 52.8kwh, and the electricity charge is once calculated as 0.56rmb, the daily power consumption cost of a single miner is 52.8kw * 0.56 = 29.57rmb
to "mine" with bitcoin mining machine, if the graphics card is fully loaded for a long time, the power consumption will be quite high, and the electricity bill will be higher and higher. There are many professional mines at home and abroad in areas with extremely low electricity charges, such as hydropower stations, while more users can only mine at home or in ordinary mines, so the electricity charges are not cheap. Even some people in a residential area in Yunnan carried out crazy mining, which led to a large area trip of the residential area, and the transformer was burned

mining principle of bitcoin mining machine:
bitcoin mining and node software mainly initiates zero knowledge proof and verification transactions through point-to-point network, digital signature and interactive proof system. Each network node carries out broadcast transactions to the network. After these broadcast transactions are verified by miners (computers on the network), miners can use their own work proof results to express confirmation. The confirmed transactions will be packaged into data blocks, and the data blocks will form a continuous data block chain
every node of bitcoin will collect all the unconfirmed transactions and gather them into a data block. The miner node will add a random adjustment number and calculate the sha256 hash value of the previous data block. The mining node keeps trying again and again until the random adjustment number it finds makes the hash value lower than a specific target
bitcoin will be released on the Internet regularly to mine. To put it bluntly, it is the process that people use computer hardware to calculate the location of bitcoin and obtain it
mining is definitely the first professional mining machine. Many new children's shoes will choose to mine with graphics card. However, mining with graphics card is just like doing a professional job with "magic oil", but the efficiency is certainly not high. To dig bitcoin, we should pay attention to the following points: first, computing power (i.e. mining speed), second, power consumption, and third, stable performance. Computing power, bitcoin mining is faster than problem-solving speed, so it is self-evident that speed is more important; Power consumption is directly related to efficiency, that is, the issue of cost expenditure; The stability of performance mainly depends on the stability of calculation force when the working frequency is constant. Just think about it, no one wants the miner to lose its computing power every so often, or even break down. After all, it's all money ~
the general computing power of the graphics card is a few gigabytes, while the professional miner chip is as high as several thousand gigabytes. Take bm1387, the chip with the lowest power consumption in the world, as an example, the S9's computing power is as high as 14T, the power consumption on the wall is only 1400W, and the rated computing power reaches 13.5 Th / s ± 1 J / GH + 12% (wall, AC / DC 93% efficiency, 25 ° Rated voltage: 11.6 ~ 13.0v, in addition, in the case of non independent power supply, three power calculation boards can be connected to different power supply respectively, but each power calculation board can not be connected to multiple power supply, and ensure that the power calculation board is finally powered on
among the mining machines, ant mining machine is my favorite. At the same time, based on the average investment cost of bitcoin in the early stage, ant S9 can basically recover the capital in about five months, and the income in the later stage is immeasurable.
Although many investors know nothing about bitcoin mining, they still can't resist the temptation of bitcoin price and plan to invest in the mining army. So if you also want to mine, I believe you will have a question in your heart: "what is a bitcoin miner? What is the principle of bitcoin mining machine? " To solve this problem, let's remember some popular science today
origin of bitcoin
to fully understand the origin of bitcoin, we have to mention the existing financial system
bitcoin mining machine specially used for mining. The popular digital currencies in 2013 include bitcoin, Leyte coin, zeta coin, pennies (Internet), invisible gold bar, red coin, pole coin, BBQ coin and prime currency. At present, hundreds of digital currencies are issued all over the world
with the orderly implementation of cashless society, banknotes will inevitably disappear in the long river of history with the passage of time. The future digital currency is believed to be similar to bitcoin, but it is by no means a limited supply. But when the human ability to proce wealth can be completely matched by the computing power of the computer, the issuing speed of e-money is directly proportional to or slightly exceeds the computing speed of the computer to create moderate inflation. In the future, while mining, it is also creating value rather than wasting electricity. In the end, the small changes in proctivity of digital currency match the difficulty of computing power, which may be the final form of human currency
but bitcoin mining as an infrastructure, if bitcoin can continue to exist, although the income of mining is reced, for the security of the whole bitcoin network system, some big bitcoin companies may invest in mining to maintain the security of bitcoin network system. In addition, the future of bitcoin will become more clear and bright. Bitcoin's computing power will not decrease, but will increase.
What is a bitcoin miner? I often hear about bitcoin, bitcoin mining machine. Let's talk about bitcoin. Bitcoin mining machine is a kind of computer used to earn bitcoin. This kind of computer generally has professional mining chips and works in the way of burning graphics card, which consumes a lot of power
The digital currency in the future is believed to be similar to bitcoin, but it is by no means a limited supply. But when the human ability to proce wealth can be completely matched by the computing power of the computer, the issuing speed of e-money is directly proportional to or slightly exceeds the computing speed of the computer to create moderate inflation.
