Can Ethereum increase its computing power
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
however, bitcoin is not the only cryptocurrency with rising value. The value of another cryptocurrency called Ethereum has been increasing since January 2017. From $8.24 to $203. Up 2367%
investors are worried that in the past few years, cryptocurrencies have gained the favor of many investors who are looking for other investment methods than traditional ones. Although most investors still invest their money in traditional financial markets, such as the stock market and foreign exchange market, many of these investors have begun to worry about the economic climate of the world economy
recent events have made us aware of the instability of traditional financial markets such as the stock market and foreign exchange market. Many investors have been looking for other ways to invest their money
with the creation and popularization of cryptocurrency and its rapidly rising value, many investors, especially those from Asia, have joined the trend of bitcoin and cryptocurrency
advantages of Ethereum
although many people are more familiar with it, Ethereum has also gained a fair share of the market with its own value. However, there are key differences between the blockchains used by Ethereum and bitcoin
the difference between the two systems is that Ethereum's data processing speed is faster than that of bitcoin, because once agreed, Ethereum's system will automatically apply to the terms and conditions in the contract
although many people may think that Ethereum may be inferior to bitcoin because its value is lower than bitcoin, this is a good thing for investors who are looking for investment channels other than bitcoin. A lower price may attract more investors because it has more room for growth. The only drawback is that Ethereum is not as established as bitcoin. In view of this, bitcoin is more secure than Ethereum<
not as volatile as before
since bitcoin was founded in 2009, cryptocurrencies have made great achievements, and they have continued to grow. In fact, the value of legal cryptocurrency has risen a lot since then
although cryptocurrencies have performed very well this year, analysts expect that when the economic situation is good, investors will leave cryptocurrencies and return to traditional investment media. When this happens, the volatility of cryptocurrency will decrease because of the decrease of demand
of course, we will still see the growth of cryptocurrency in the next few years, which will help the instry remain strong. When that happens, it's a good idea for investors to hold cryptocurrencies for future growth.
Ethereum is likely to rise to 10000 in 2021
institutional investors and big capital are increasingly interested in cryptocurrency. The attention of all whales, and the attention of all the public, is focused on bitcoin. Since the global health and safety incident triggered the market crash in March 2020, the growth of eth has reached 1200%
while BTC only increased by 700%. Of course, in the context of bitcoin's record high price of 40000, Ethereum's rise to $1400 does not seem so impressive. In addition, the market value of eth is five times the trading volume of BTC market
extended information:
the increase of Ethereum is as follows:
the transaction volume recorded on Ethereum blockchain exceeds US $1 trillion. These figures exceed the transaction volume of payment giants such as PayPal, which is used by more than 350 million users and whose average transaction volume is generally less than $200 billion per quarter
each transaction will generate network fees paid by eth. Moreover, as the growth rate of the network is still very high, we can confidently expect the "bull market" trend of eth to continue. In any case, interest in cryptocurrency is growing, as are the number of active wallets, the number of transactions on the Internet, and the average size of transactions
ring this period, the return comparison between holding spot and ETF fund is as follows:
1. Holding spot makes 4 times of profit
2. Holding Ethereum ETF fund makes 12 times of profit, Up to 30 times (intelligent position adjustment + fund compound interest calculation)
there is no doubt that the Ethereum ETF launched by bitoffer is the best investment choice!
Bitcoin uses SHA-256 encryption algorithm. When mining, it competes with computing power. In order to improve computing power, bitcoin has gone through four stages: CPU mining, GPU mining, FPGA mining and now ASIC mining machine mining, and the degree of specialization is getting higher and higher
Ethereum uses the ethash encryption algorithm. In the process of mining, it needs to read the memory and store the DAG file. Because the bandwidth of each read memory is limited, and the existing computer technology is difficult to have a qualitative breakthrough in this problem, so no matter how to improve the computing efficiency of the computer, the memory read efficiency will not be greatly improved. Therefore, in a sense, Ethereum's ethash encryption algorithm is ASIC resistant.
different encryption algorithms lead to great differences in mining equipment and computing power between bitcoin and Ethereum
at present, bitcoin mining equipment is mainly ASIC mining machine with a very high degree of specialization. The maximum computing power of a single mining machine is 110t / s, and the scale of computing power of the whole network is more than 120eh / s
the main mining equipment of Ethereum is video card miner, and there are very few specialized ASIC miner. On the one hand, the "ASIC resistance" of Ethereum mining algorithm improves the threshold of developing ASIC miner. On the other hand, after Ethereum is upgraded to 2.0, the consensus mechanism will be transformed into POS, and the miner can not continue mining
compared with the ASIC miner, the graphics card miner has two orders of magnitude difference in computing power. At present, the computing power of mainstream graphics card miner (8 cards) is about 420mh / s, and that of Ethereum is about 230th / s.
from the time dimension of the past two years, bitcoin's computing power of the whole network is growing rapidly, while Ethereum's computing power of the whole network is growing relatively slowly
The ASIC mining machine of
bitcoin is monopolized by several major mining machine manufacturers, and miners can only buy it from the market; Although the graphics card miner of Ethereum is also manufactured by a special miner, the miner can buy accessories from the market and assemble them according to his own demand
