Ethereum miners charge too little, can you refuel

Ethereum energy coin is not MLM

Ethereum is an open source public blockchain platform with smart contract function. Ethereum provides decentralized virtual machine (Ethereum virtual machine) to process point-to-point contract through its special cryptocurrency Ethereum

in 2013, vitalik buterin, 19, first mentioned the idea of Ethereum in a book entitled "Ethereum white paper: next generation intelligent connection and decentralized application platform". Then, in 2014, the algorithm and protocol of Ethernet coin were officially implemented, and $150 million was raised. The system itself was finally completed on July 30, 2015

as the representative of blockchain 2.0, the mainstream currency Ethernet is regarded as the wind vane of crypto digital currency market. However, over the past week, the price of ether currency has continued to fall. On August 14, 2018, the ethereal currency plummeted by 20%, reaching a record low of $257 this year. Compared with this year's peak of $1295, the price of Ethernet currency has shrunk by more than 80%. Affected by this, on August 15, 2018, none of the top ten mainstream currencies in the digital money market was spared, falling across the board, with a number of single day declines exceeding 10%

extended data

Ethereum started planning almost in 2013, and started to implement the project in 2015. Before that, there were many digital currencies imitating bitcoin in the market, and they made various modifications on the basis of bitcoin code. In this way, it is very difficult to develop a new blockchain application, to re deploy a new chain, and then to develop an application on this chain. Using a consensus mechanism of pow alone is a huge maintenance workload. It's like developing an app on a mobile phone and developing the Android system together

after Ethereum comes out, it is equivalent to the underlying operating system of the blockchain. On Ethereum, it is very convenient to develop various dapps without considering the underlying development, and it can also share the computing power and storage of Ethereum. For programmers, the threshold of blockchain development is lowered instantly. The emergence of Ethereum has played a very important role in the development and popularization of blockchain applications. That's why Ethereum is called blockchain 2.0

2.

There is an essential difference between Ethereum and bitcoin. What is the difference? Bitcoin defines a set of currency system, while Ethereum focuses on building a main chain (which can be understood as a road) to allow a large number of blockchain applications to run on this road

from this point of view, Ethereum's application scenarios are more extensive, which is why we say that Ethereum marks a simple monetary system in the era of blockchain

1.0, and a transformation to other instries and application scenarios in the era of blockchain 2.0

however, there is no perfect thing in the world. Although Ethereum has expanded the application scope of blockchain in all walks of life and improved the speed of transaction processing, it also has some disputes and doubts

first, the solution to the lack of scalability of Ethereum: slicing technology and lightning network

the bottom design of Ethereum, the biggest problem is that Ethereum has only one chain and no side chain, which means that all programs have to run on this chain equally, consuming resources and causing system congestion. Just like last year's very popular Ethereum game "encryption cat", when this game was very popular, it once caused Ethereum network paralysis

to improve the processing capacity, Ethereum proposes two ways: shard and lightning network. Let's introce these two technologies respectively

(1) fragmentation technology

vitalik buterin, founder of Ethereum, believes that the reason why mainstream blockchain networks such as bitcoin process transactions very slowly is that every miner has to process every transaction in the whole network, which is actually very inefficient. The idea of fragmentation technology is: a transaction does not need to be processed by all nodes in the whole network, as long as some nodes (miners) in the network are allowed to process it. Therefore, Ethereum network is divided into many pieces. At the same time, each piece can handle different transactions. In this way, the network performance will be greatly improved

however, the slicing technology is also controversial. As we all know, the important idea of blockchain technology is decentralization. Only when the whole network witnesses (processes) the same transaction can it have the highest authority. The Ethereum slicing technology is similar to the group witness, not all nodes witness together. In this way, it will lose the absolute "decentralization" attribute, and can only achieve the purpose of high performance by sacrificing certain characteristics of decentralization

(2) lightning network

lightning network uses the way of transaction under the chain. What does that mean? It means: when the participants of lightning network transfer money to each other, they do not need to confirm the transaction through the main chain of Ethereum, but create a payment channel between the participants and complete it under the chain

however, lightning network is not separated from the main chain. Before establishing a payment channel, you need to use the assets on the main chain as collateral to generate a balance proof, which indicates that you can transfer the corresponding balance. In the case that both parties of the transaction hold the balance certificate, both parties can make unlimited number of transfers under the chain through the payment channel

only when the off chain transaction is completed and the assets need to be transferred back to the chain, the balance change information of the main chain account will be registered on the Ethereum main chain, and no matter how many transactions occur ring this period, there will be no record on the main chain

another real benefit of lightning network is that it can save the cost of miners for you. At present, when we trade on the main chain of Ethereum, we need to consume gas and pay for miners. Once we move the transaction to the lower chain, we can save this part of the cost

Of course, lightning network is not perfect. When using the lightning network, the assets on the main chain should be used as collateral; And this part of assets as collateral can not be used before the user completes the transaction under the chain. This also determines that lightning trading is only suitable for small transactions

the above is the problem of insufficient scalability of Ethereum, as well as the two main solutions: fragmentation technology and lightning network

Second, there are loopholes in Ethereum's smart contract and the infamous Dao event

Ethereum's smart contract is very powerful, but there are loopholes in any code. The biggest controversy of Ethereum's smart contract lies in the so-called loopholes, that is, security issues. According to relevant research, 34200 (about 3%) of the nearly 1 million smart contracts based on Ethereum contain security vulnerabilities, which will allow hackers to steal eth, freeze assets or delete contracts, such as the infamous Dao incident

(1) what does Dao mean

before introcing the Dao event, let's first introce what Dao is. Dao is the abbreviation of decentralized

autonomous organization, which can be understood as decentralized autonomous organization. From the perspective of Ethereum, Dao is a kind of contract or a combination of contracts on the blockchain, which is used to replace the government's review and complex intermediate proceres, so as to achieve an efficient and decentralized trust system. Therefore, Dao is not a specific organization, that is to say, there can be many Dao, all kinds of Dao

(2) the infamous Dao event

however, when we talk about Dao now, we basically refer to the Dao event, that is, the infamous hacker attack event we just mentioned. As we know, the English word "the" refers to "the Dao event". The Dao event

refers to "the Dao event", because we just said that Dao is not a specific organization, there can be many Dao, all kinds of Dao

in 2016, slock.it, a German company focusing on "smart locks", launched the Dao project on Ethereum in order to realize decentralized physical exchange (such as apartments and ships). Since April 30, 2016, the financing window has been open for 28 days

unexpectedly, this Dao project is very popular. It raised more than US $100 million in just half a month. By the end of the whole financing period, it raised a total of US $150 million. Therefore, it has become the largest crowdfunding project in history. However, it didn't last long. In June, hackers took advantage of the loopholes in the smart contract to successfully transfer more than 3.6 million Ethernet coins and put them into a Dao sub organization, which has the same structure as the Dao. At that time, the price of Ethernet currency fell directly from more than $20 to less than $13

this event shows that there are loopholes in smart contracts, and once the loopholes are exploited by hackers, the consequences will be very serious. This is why many people criticize Ethereum and say that its smart contract is not smart

to solve this problem, many foreign companies begin to provide code audit services in order to solve the vulnerability problem of smart contract. From a technical point of view, some teams are currently testing smart contracts. Most of these teams are led by professors from Harvard, Stanford and Yale, and some of them have obtained investment from leading institutions

in addition to the problems of insufficient expansibility and loopholes in smart contracts, the controversy over Ethereum lies in the POS consensus mechanism it pursues, that is, the proof of equity mechanism. Under the proof of equity mechanism, if anyone holds more money and holds it for a longer time, he will get more "rights" (interests) and have the opportunity to get bookkeeping power, Bookkeeping can also be rewarded. In this way, it is easy to create the oligarchic advantage of "the stronger the stronger"

Another problem is the chaos of ICO. ICO is a common way to raise funds for blockchain projects, which we can understand as pre-sale. The outbreak of ICO projects on Ethereum has caused illegal activities such as fund allocation and money fraud under the banner of ICO, which has caused security risks to social and financial stability

3. At present, defi liquidity mining is the hottest, so you can use Eth and give it to the exchange for investment. It mainly depends on whether the exchange you choose has enough weight. If you choose the mining service of currency, as one of the four major exchanges, I think it is very important. Then the threshold of its procts is low. I think it is the best mining method at present.

4. Because the money transfer based on Ethereum requires a very small amount of eth as the miner's fee, so the money can't be transferred without eth. At this time, you need to buy a small amount of eth. You can buy at least 10 yuan in bitpie's wallet, which can last for a long time.

5.

It depends on the electricity bill, and the efficiency of mining

the most efficient is Claymore on GitHub. The algorithm is very good, but the author has 2%

because of the wall, the download of GitHub will often have problems

< P > I modified the code to remove the author's extraction. Students who want to mine can try Claymore, Give a link to the network disk ~ students who are inconvenient in GitHub can download it from the network disk, double-click the EXE file ~ but remember to change the account to your own ~

network cloud link - Claymore algorithm optimization version

6. The biggest disadvantage of Ethereum is that its quantity has been increasing. How can an item without an upper limit be used as an investment proct? As we all know, the rise in the price of a commodity is in the final analysis the quantity comparison between the supply and demand sides. The supply exceeds the demand, the price falls, the supply is less than the demand, and the price rises. The amount of bitcoin and lettercoin is fixed. The total amount of bitcoin is 21 million, and now there are more than 10 million. The rest will take another 100 years. Now the amount of Ethereum is more than 90 million, and 18 million will be generated every year. Ethereum has 250 blocks per hour, 5 coins for each block (and some transaction fees and other rewards), 24 hours a day, that is, 30000 + coins will be added every day. So there's no limit to the amount of ether

how many years can the ether coin be g
how many Ethernet coins can be proced each year? At present, five new ether coins are generated for each new block. If you dig out a block every 14 seconds, it will take 31.5 million seconds (365 x 24 x 60 x 60) a year, which means that 2.25 million blocks are g out every year
every miner has considered how long the ether coin can be g, whether I can't dig the ether coin after I buy the miner, or I can't dig the ether coin after I invest in the miner. I can tell you clearly that the ether coin can't be g up, and the official shows the quantity when it comes to the ether coin, but don't go, Ethernet currency is constantly bifurcating. Once the quantity is threatened, it will continue to bifurcate. The miners can continue to dig for new currencies from the bifurcations. For example, etc and ETF are examples. After the bifurcations, the ETH price will go up crazily. Therefore, miners need not worry about the quantity of Ethernet currency.

7. Why not recommend direct transfer of usdt?

8. Miner's fee refers to the incentive fee paid to miners ring digital currency transfer. This amount is not fixed. Of course, the more miner's fee you pay, the faster it will be packaged. It can be understood as the transaction cost in the blockchain network. If you are interested, you can learn about celletf

9. Ystarpool mining is based on the TaiFang public chain, so the miner's fee depends entirely on Ethereum and uniswap, as well as whether the current channel is congested, which is not fixed.

10. In a public chain, anyone can read and write data. Reading data is free, but writing data to the public chain costs a certain amount of money, which helps to prevent junk content and protect its security through payment. Any node on the network (each connected device containing a of the ledger is called a node) can participate in a way called mining to protect the network. As mining requires computing power and electricity charges, miners need to be paid for their services, which is also the origin of miners' fees
miners will give priority to the deals with reasonable gas and high gas price. If the miner's fee paid by the user is very low (out of gas), the transaction may not be packaged by the miner, resulting in the failure of the transaction. The transaction cost of tokenpocket (also the transaction cost of Ethereum) = gas quantity * gas price
gas is the unit used to measure the calculation workload required to perform specific operations on the Ethereum blockchain. The name itself was not chosen by accident. Gas is actually similar to gasoline, which is used as the energy of a car to ensure that the car can run normally. Gas on Ethereum network "refuels" the transaction behavior and allows users to perform different operations
