Ethereum update acceleration

1. Ethereum is really congested at present, and the miners' fees given by the platform are insufficient, which leads to the situation that you are talking about being stuck in the block. But don't worry, this transaction will certainly continue, but the time is slow. If it is BTC, it can also speed up

2. GPU mining

Hardware

algorithm is difficult to solve in memory. In order to make DAG suitable for memory, each GPU needs 1-2gb of memory. If you get an error prompt: error GPU mining. GPU memory fragmentation? It means you don't have enough memory. GPU mining software is based on OpenCL, amd GPU will be faster than NVIDIA GPU of the same level. ASIC and FPGA are relatively inefficient, so they are blocked. To get OpenCL for chip integration platform, try:
amd SDK OpenCL
NVIDIA CUDA OpenCL
Ubuntu Linux settings

for this quick guide, you will need Ubuntu 14.04 or 15.04 and fglrx image driver. You can also use NVIDIA drives and other platforms, but you have to find your own way to get an effective OpenCL installation, such as genoil's ethminer fork
if you are using 15.04, go to & quot; Software and updates 〉 extra drives & quot; Set to & quot; Use the video driver & quot; from fglrx for AMD graphics accelerator
if you are using 14.04, go to & quot; Software and updates 〉 extra drives & quot; Set to & quot; Use the video driver & quot; from fglrx for AMD graphics accelerator;. Unfortunately, for some people, this method may not work, because there is a known program error in Ubuntu 14.04.02 that will prevent you from switching to the exclusive graphics drive necessary for GPU mining
therefore, if you encounter this program error, go to & quot; "Software and update" update & quot; Select & quot; Pre release reliable update proposal & quot;. Then, back to & quot; Software and updates 〉 extra drives & quot; Set to & quot; Use the video driver & quot; from fglrx for AMD graphics accelerator;. After restarting, it's worth checking that the drive is now properly installed (for example, by going to & quot; Additional drives & quot;)
no matter what you do, if you are using 14.04.02, once installed, do not change the drive or drive configuration. For example, the use of aticonfig – initial (especially the - F, - force option) will & quot; Destruction & quot; Your settings. If you accidentally change the configuration, you will need to uninstall the drive, restart, install the drive again and restart.

3. At the top of Ethereum is DAPP. It exchanges with the smart contract layer through Web3. JS. All smart contracts run on EVM (Ethereum virtual machine) and use RPC calls. Below EVM and RPC are the four core contents of Ethereum, including: blockchain, consensus algorithm, mining and network layer. Except DAPP, all other parts are in the Ethereum client. The most popular Ethereum client is geth (go Ethereum)

4. 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.

1. Power consumption: 243w; Calculation force: 22.4m; Price: 1999 yuan; The number of eth g every 24 hours: 0.015; Revenue generated every 24 hours: 24.8 yuan; Expected payback time: 81.66 days

2. Power consumption of the whole machine: 159w; Calculation force: 24.3m; Price: 1599 yuan; Number of eth g every 24 hours: 0.017; Revenue generated every 24 hours: 27.9 yuan; Expected payback time: 57.31 days

3. Power consumption: 171w; Calculation force: 24.4m; Revenue generated every 24 hours: 27.87 yuan; Expected payback time: 71.73 days

4. Power consumption: 97W; Calculation force: 9.2; Price: 999 yuan; Number of eth g every 24 hours: 0.006; Revenue generated every 24 hours: 10.09 yuan; Expected payback time: 99.1 days

mining machine risk

1. The problem of electricity charge

in order to make the graphics card full load for a long time, the power consumption will be quite high, and the electricity charge 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

2. Hardware expenditure

mining is actually a competition of performance and equipment. Some mining machines are composed of more such graphics card arrays. With dozens or even hundreds of graphics cards, the cost of hardware and other costs is very high, and there is a considerable expenditure in mining

3, currency security

the withdrawal of bitcoin requires hundreds of keys, and most people will record this long string of numbers on the computer, but the frequent problems such as hard disk damage will make the key permanently lost, which also leads to the loss of bitcoin

6. The network will be upgraded to Constantinople & Petersburg at block height of 7280000. L, Z, b show that it will be upgraded on March 1, 2019 Beijing time. I don't know if the upgrade is successful

7. This number is not fixed, because the price of bitcoin is constantly changing. The highest price of bitcoin is more than $19000. At present, the price of bitcoin is around $4000. You can log in to the bitcoin exchange to view the bitcoin market in real time.

8. Ethereum is an innovation based on the application of technologies and concepts in bitcoin to computers. Ethereum itself imitates a lot of bitcoin technology to maintain the computer platform. Ethereum platform can safely run any program users want. 2. Ethereum is a programmable blockchain. Ethereum does not give users a series of preset operations (such as bitcoin trading), but allows users to create complex operations according to their own wishes. In this way, Ethereum can be used as a platform for various types of decentralized blockchain applications, including but not limited to cryptocurrency. Like other blockchains, Ethereum has a peer-to-peer network protocol. Ethereum blockchain database is maintained and updated by many nodes connected to the network. Each network node runs the Ethereum simulator and executes the same instructions. Therefore, people sometimes call Ethereum "world computer".
