unlike all currencies, bitcoin does not rely on a specific currency institution to issue. It is generated by a large number of calculations based on a specific algorithm. Bitcoin economy uses a distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions, and uses cryptography design to ensure the security of all aspects of currency circulation. The decentralized nature and algorithm of P2P can ensure that it is impossible to artificially manipulate the value of bitcoin through mass proction. The design based on cryptography can make bitcoin only be transferred or paid by the real owner. This also ensures the anonymity of money ownership and circulation transactions. The biggest difference between bitcoin and other virtual currencies is that the total amount of bitcoin is very limited and it has a strong scarcity
on December 17, 2017, bitcoin reached an all-time high of $19850. On July 27, 2020, bitcoin broke through the $10000 mark again [2]<

from the transaction of things In 2008, the global financial crisis broke out. On November 1 of the same year, a person who called himself Satoshi Nakamoto published the white paper bitcoin: a peer-to-peer e-cash system [6] on the P2P foundation website, stating his new idea of e-money bitcoin came out. On January 3, 2009, bitcoin Genesis block was born
there are three bitcoins in total
compared with legal tender, bitcoin does not have a centralized issuer, but is generated by the calculation of network nodes. Anyone can participate in the manufacture of bitcoin, and it can circulate all over the world. It can be bought and sold on any computer connected to the Internet. No matter where they are, anyone can dig, buy, sell or receive bitcoin, And in the transaction process, foreigners can not identify the user's identity information. On January 5, 2009, bitcoin, which is not controlled by the central bank and any financial institutions, was born. Bitcoin is a kind of digital currency, which is composed of a series of complex codes generated by computer. The new bitcoin is made by preset program
whenever bitcoin comes into the view of mainstream media, mainstream media always ask some mainstream economists to analyze bitcoin. Earlier, these analyses always focused on whether bitcoin was a scam. Now the analysis is always focused on whether bitcoin can become the mainstream currency in the future. The focus of the debate is often on the deflationary nature of bitcoin[ 7]
many bitcoin players are attracted by the fact that bitcoin can not be added at will. Contrary to the attitude of bitcoin players, economists have a polarized attitude towards the fixed amount of 21 million bitcoin
Keynesian economists believe that the government should actively regulate the total amount of money, and use the tightness of monetary policy to timely fuel or brake the economy. As a result, they believe that bitcoin's fixed aggregate currency sacrifices its adjustability, and worse still, it will inevitably lead to deflation, thereby harming the overall economy. Austrian economists hold the opposite view. They think that the less the government intervenes in money, the better. The deflation caused by the fixed amount of money is not a big deal, even a sign of social progress
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 will 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[ 6]
in 2009, when bitcoin was born, 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[ 3]
bitcoin is a virtual currency with limited quantity, but it can be used to cash out: it can be converted into the currency of most countries. You can use bitcoin to buy some virtual items, such as clothes, hats, equipment, etc. in online games. As long as someone accepts it, you can also use bitcoin to buy real-life items
on February 25, 2014, the opening price of "bitcoin China" was 3562.41 yuan. By 4:40 p.m., the price had dropped to 3185 yuan, down more than 10%. According to the historical market data of the platform, on January 27, 2014, 1 bitcoin could be exchanged for 5032 yuan. This means that in less than a month on the platform, the price of bitcoin has dropped by 36.7%
on September 9 of the same year, the US e-commerce giant eBay announced that Braintree, its payment processing subsidiary, would start accepting bitcoin payments. The company has entered into a partnership with coinbase, a bitcoin trading platform, to begin to accept this relatively new means of payment
although the eBay market trading platform and paypal business do not accept bitcoin payment, Braintree customers such as airbnb, a travel house rental community, and Uber, a car rental service, will be able to start accepting this virtual currency. Braintree, whose main business is to provide payment processing software to enterprises, was acquired by eBay in 2013 for about $800 million
on the evening of January 22, 2017, fire coin, bitcoin China and okcoin announced on their respective official websites that in order to further curb speculation and prevent drastic price fluctuations, all platforms will start to collect transaction service fees from 12:00 noon on January 24, and the service fees will be charged at a fixed rate of 0.2% of the transaction amount, and the active transaction and passive transaction rates are the same[ 8] On May 5, according to the latest data of okcoin, the price of bitcoin has just set a new record, reaching a high of 9222 yuan by the time of publication. From 12:00 noon on January 24, China's three major bitcoin platforms officially began to collect transaction fees. On September 4, the central bank and other seven ministries and commissions announced that China banned virtual currency trading
on December 17 of the same year, bitcoin reached an all-time high of $19850
on November 25, 2018, bitcoin broke the $4000 mark and then stabilized at more than $3000[ 9] On November 19, cryptocurrency resumed its decline, and bitcoin fell to the $5000 mark for the first time since October 2017, e to BCH's hard bifurcations and the regulatory authorities' enhanced scrutiny of the initial token issue (ICO)[ 9] At 4:30 a.m. on November 21, the offer of bitcoin on the coinbase platform fell below $4100, a 13 month low
in April 2019, bitcoin broke the $5000 mark again, reaching a new high in the year[ 10] On May 12, bitcoin broke through $7000 for the first time in nearly eight months[ 11] On May 14, according to the offer of coin market cap, bitcoin stood at $8000, up 14.68% in 24 hours[ 12]
on June 22 of the same year, the price of bitcoin broke through the $10000 mark. Bitcoin prices fluctuated around 10200, rising nearly 7% in 24 hours[ 13] On June 26, the price of bitcoin broke through $12000, a 17 month high since January last year[ 14] In the morning of June 27, the price of bitcoin was close to $14000, reaching a new high of the year[ 15]
on February 10, 2020, bitcoin broke through $10000. According to trading data, bitcoin's price rose more than 3%, breaking the psychological limit of $10000 for the first time since October 26 last year[ 16]
on March 12, according to the data of bitstamp, the cryptocurrency trading platform, the lowest price of bitcoin dropped to US $5731 at 19:44[ 17]
on May 8, bitcoin broke through the $10000 mark, a new high since February[ 18]
from 8:00 a.m. on May 10, the unit price of bitcoin fell by thousands of dollars from $9500 in half an hour, with the lowest price falling below $8200 and the highest price difference exceeding $1400[ 19]
at 6 p.m. on July 26, bitcoin rose rapidly for a short time, reaching a maximum of 10150.15usdt, with a maximum increase of more than 4% within the day. This is the first time since June 2, 2020 that bitcoin has exceeded the $10000 level[ 2]
bitcoin has been "forked" more than 100 times in two years. How about those forked coins now

overseas mining rise: batch construction of us factories, On November 1, 2008, a self styled Satoshi Nakamoto published a bitcoin white paper, bitcoin: a peer-to-peer electronic cash system, on the P2P foundation website, stating his new idea of electronic money bitcoin came out
Wang yuexinyi, Professor of mathematics at Kyoto University, was born on January 3, 2009. Bitcoin uses distributed ledger to get rid of the constraints of third-party institutions, which Nakamoto calls "blockchain". Users are willing to dedicate the computing power of CPU and run a special software to be a "digger", which will form a network to maintain the "regional chain". In the process, they also generate new money. Business is also extended on this network. Computers running this software are scrambling to solve the problem of irreversible code, which contains several business data. The first miner to deal with the problem will get a 50 bitcoin reward, and the relevant trading area will join the chain. As the number of "miners" increases, the difficulty of each puzzle also increases, which keeps the proctivity of bitcoin in each trading area at about 10 minutes
in 2009, Nakamoto designed a digital currency, namely bitcoin. The booming bitcoin market has gone up and down, and the identity of its founder "Nakamoto" has always been a mystery. Rumors about "the father of bitcoin" involve from the US National Security Agency to financial experts, and also give bitcoin a mysterious aura
according to foreign media reports, computer scientist Ted Nelson released a video on the Internet on Sunday, saying that he has determined that the founder of bitcoin is Shinichi Mochizuki, a professor of mathematics at Kyoto University. The founders of bitcoin have always used
there is also a model called cloud computing power, which is derived from the traditional use of mining machine to mine. It is in Sichuan, Xinjiang, Tibet and other places with abundant and cheap power resources, such as wind power generation and water conservancy power generation, that large-scale mines are built and maintained by professional personnel. If ordinary people participate in mining, they don't need to buy mining machines in person. They just need to buy the corresponding computing power to get bitcoin and Ethereum! This model is called cloud computing power!
The wealth myth of "one coin, one villa" is still widely spread in the currency circle, and new investors are eager to try. But in fact, a stable power structure has been formed in this small circle, from mining machinery manufacturers to large mine owners, and then to mining pools
manufacturing and selling mining machines, mining, building mines and building ore pools, the "mining circle" has become another way to get rich in the blockchain world, and mining machines have also become a little-known "big business"
according to the imagination of Nakamoto, the inventor of bitcoin, the ideal state should be "decentralized", with computing power scattered all over the world. However, contrary to decentralization, the mine pool is absolutely centralized, and more and more mining machines are connected to the mine pool
this article was first published in the Southern Weekend
"if speculation is a road of no return, then investment in mining machinery is a business that can make a steady profit without loss, and it is only a matter of time before the cost is recovered." Zhong Xi, general manager of Shenzhen Aibo times Technology Co., Ltd., calculated an account. A miner earns 200 yuan a day, which can be recovered in 120 days, and then the profit
in October 2017, in addition to his main business, Zhong Xi joined the mining army and quickly became a big boss in the mining circle. He operated many large mines in Jiangxi, Sichuan, Guizhou and other places
in fact, the business of "steady profit without loss" still depends on the continuous rise of currency price. In the past two months, the price of bitcoin has dropped from US $15000 to about US $10000, or even below US $6000 at one time, which has extended the cycle of mining machinery return. If it keeps falling, the profit will be far away
in 2012, four years after the advent of bitcoin, mass-proced mining machines appeared. Before that, mining was mainly a private activity, which could be completed by a home computer“ At that time, the home computer was the money printing machine, and a lot of bitcoin could be g up every day. " Huang Shiliang, a senior digital currency player who sold mining machines in his early years, recalled to Southern Weekend reporters
after the emergence of mining machine, mining began to be "socialized", with the emergence of mines and pools, and mining became a collective work. The indivial miner is entrusted by the mine, just like the workers on the proction line, as long as they are there, they can get paid every day
manufacturing and selling mining machines, mining, building mines and building ore pools, the "mining circle" has become another way to get rich in the blockchain world, and mining machines have also become a little-known "big business"
China has become the world's largest procer of mining machinery. Since 2012, a number of miner manufacturers have been born in China, such as Shenzhen bitquan Co., Ltd., which proces cat roasting miner, bitmainland, Jianan Yun and Yibang communication, which are now famous. In Huaqiangbei, Shenzhen, foreigners can be seen everywhere asking about the price of mining machinery with translators
recently, in an interview with the media, the CEO of bitcontinental, Mr. Zhan Ketun, said that this startup company, which has been established for only four years, had a revenue of about US $2.5 billion in 2017. Bitcontinent is known as the world's largest miner, whose ant miner has always been the hard currency of the coin circle and miner world
just like the coin circle, the mining circle also needs belief that the mechanical mathematical operation of mining machines every day can create great wealth
However, contrary to the "decentralization" advocated by bitcoin, the miner's world is moving towards "centralization". Miner dealers build their own mines. After the investors buy the miner, they are entrusted by the seller; The procers build their own mines and manage themthis process of "centralization" made the wealth of the mining circle snatched by a few people, and it was not easy for Zhong Xi to enter the core circle
calculation force "centralization"
the main function of the mine is to provide a place for scattered mining machines to operate. But it is the "ore pool" that really plays the role of integration
the so-called "mine pool" can be simply understood as "cooperative mining". The miners and the mines give the calculation power to the mine pool, and the mine pool is used as the only address to access the digital currency network for mining, and then distribute dividends to the miners according to the calculation power of the mining machine
the history of ore pool is longer than that of mining machine. In November 2010, the mine pool named slush appeared. Today, its official website says "the world's first mine pool", which is also recognized by the coin circle. Compared with the mine, the construction of the mine pool needs certain technology, and the threshold is relatively higher
the person in charge of a well-known domestic mine pool explained the principle of the mine pool to the Southern Weekend reporter. He compares mining to buying lottery tickets. If you dig alone, the probability of winning the lottery is very unstable. You may win 100000 today, but you won't in the next six months
"gather the people who buy lottery tickets together and buy them in a unified way. No matter who wins, they will be divided according to the proportion of money they pay. In the coin circle, the mine pool plays this role. " The person in charge said
it's not complicated to connect the mining machine with the ore pool. According to the operation guidelines of the major ore pools, it can be completed in a few steps, and then according to the calculation power provided by ourselves, we can get benefits from the ore pool. The miner is like a worker standing on the proction line, receiving a fixed salary every day
the mine pool with huge computing power and many mining machines has an absolute say in the coin circle and the mining circle. For example, if you want to issue a new digital currency or dominate the bitcoin bifurcation, you generally need to get the support of the mine pool. Without the support of the mine pool, no one will dig the new currency, so it is meaningless
in addition, when a hot new coin comes out, the mine pool can also use its own miners to pack it quickly and take the lead in the rush purchase of these new coins
in June 2017, when SNT and EOS were issued, Southern Weekend reporters witnessed the scene of minchi snapping up tokens. Because there are too many investors, many indivial investors can not put their funds into the designated position, but the person in charge of a mine pool can easily complete this operation
according to the imagination of Nakamoto, the inventor of bitcoin, the ideal state should be "decentralized", with computing power scattered all over the world. However, contrary to decentralization, the mine pool is absolutely centralized, and more and more mining machines are connected to the mine pool
on January 18, 2018, Emin Yun silash, a computer professor at Cornell University, and other five people co authored a paper pointing out that there is an implicit power structure behind bitcoin and Ethereum, the two major digital currencies, and mining is too centralized, in which 50% of bitcoin's computing power is controlled by the four major mines
In fact, this problem has always existed. Four years ago, the founder of Ethereum, vtalik, noticed this problem when he wrote Ethereum white paper. He wrote: "this problem can be said to be very serious. At the time of writing this article, the two largest mines indirectly controlled about 50% of the computing power of the whole network." Up to now, this problem has not been solved. An early translator of the Ethereum white paper told the Southern Weekend reporter, "this is not a technical problem, but a human problem."5
recessive power structure
in the mining circle, the top of the food chain is mining machinery manufacturers. At present, the three recognized mining machinery manufacturers are located in China. Through the proction and sales of mining machines, they get a lot of profits. At the same time, they also set foot in the construction of mines and pools, and have the right to speak in the whole coin circle
ant mining pool is one of the top two large mining pools in the world, and its computing power accounts for 17% of the total network computing power. However, according to instrial and commercial data, it was founded by bitmainland; Several investors of Jianan Yun are also investors of Hangzhou mining Pool Technology Co., Ltd., which has its own mining pool hash and mining platform, but the mining pool has ceased operation at the end of 2017
Yibang communications has set up three blockchain companies in Hohhot, Wuhai and Zhundong Economic Development Zone in Inner Mongolia. A salesperson of Yibang communications told reporters at Nanfang Weekend that they have mines and mining businesses in these three places, but these mines have been operating at full capacity, and there is no machine space to host new mining machines"we are building a new mine in Irkutsk, Russia, where electricity charges are much lower and new mining machines can be hosted there." The source said
above the mining machinery manufacturers, it is the harvest of chip giants“ The core technology of mining machinery lies in the chip. Whoever has the chip can proce more mining machinery. " Ding Yang told reporters at Nanfang Weekend that the chips are mainly in the hands of several giant manufacturers, such as TSMC, NVIDIA, AMD, etc
since 2015, TSMC has always been the largest chip supplier of Jianan Yun. In 2015, the chips purchased by Jianan Yun from TSMC accounted for 69.62% of all the chips purchased by Jianan Yun. Since then, this figure has been maintained at about 60%. Most of the profits of Jia Nan Yun Zhi were made by TSMC
On January 18, 2018, at the presentation meeting of TSMC's fourth quarter financial report, chairman Zhang Zhongmou said that although the mobile business prospect this year is weak, the company's revenue will still grow by 10% - 15%. One of the key factors is the demand for chips e to the continuous and steady development of cryptocurrencyunder the mining machinery manufacturers, there is another power structure. Jianan Yun disclosed this secret in its 2017 prospectus. In the first four months of 2017, four of the top five customers of Jianan Yun were "indivials". According to public information, three of them are well-known "wrists" in the currency circle
Wu Gang, the largest customer, was the first group of miners, and later founded haobtc, which has one of the world's top ten mines; Lin Zhipeng, the second largest customer, is the founder of Xiaoqiang mining machinery. He has been engaged in the proction and sales of mining machinery for a long time. He has been cooperating with Xie Weiqin, the sixth largest customer; Wang Jin, the third largest customer, founded bitbang, a coin circle information websitethese big customers are not simple miners, they all have their own influence in the coin circle. Mechanical operation of the mining machine to bring them income at the same time, also brought the right to speak
according to an insider in bitmainland, most of the big customers in bitmainland are big guys in the currency circle. However, bitmainland officials declined an interview with the Southern Weekend reporter. The company's Public Relations Department responded that it was not convenient to disclose the content because it signed a confidentiality agreement with its customers
"one coin, one villa" wealth myth is still widely spread in the currency circle, and new investors are eager to try. But in fact, a stable power structure has been formed in this small circle, from mining machinery manufacturers to large mine owners, and then to mining pools
most of the new entrants can only make the harvested "leeks"
therefore, computing power trading platforms like 58hash emerge as the times require. Users only need to purchase computing power, trust computing power to the computing power trading platform, pay a certain maintenance fee, and the computing power hosting platform will uniformly maintain the mining machines, and issue the extracted bitcoin to users on time.
the relevant person in charge of the central bank also made it clear that people can buy and sell freely at their own risk. Ruitai coin, Laite coin and Ethereum are the same.
There are the following four cases in the amount determination:
1. Organizing more than three people to gamble, and the accumulated amount of profit from taking a lottery is more than 5000 yuan
2. Organizing more than three people to gamble, and the total amount of gambling money is more than 50000 yuan
3. Organize more than 3 people to gamble, and the total number of participants is more than 20
4. Organizing more than 10 citizens of the people's Republic of China to gamble abroad to collect kickbacks and introction fees
the minimum penalty for gambling is six months' imprisonment
legal basis:
Article 303 of the criminal law of the people's Republic of China who, for the purpose of making profits, gathers people to gamble or takes gambling as a business shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention or public surveillance and shall also be fined. Those who open casinos shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention or public surveillance and shall also be fined; If the circumstances are serious, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than 10 years and shall also be fined
Article 1 of the interpretation of the Supreme People's court and the Supreme People's Procuratorate on the specific application of law in handling gambling criminal cases is for the purpose of making profits, and it is stipulated in Article 303 of the criminal law in any of the following circumstances; Gathering people to gamble(1) organizing more than three people to gamble, and the accumulated amount of profits from taking a lottery is more than 5000 yuan
(2) organizing more than three people to gamble, and the accumulated amount of gambling capital is more than 50000 yuan(3) organizing more than 3 people to gamble, and the total number of participants is more than 20
(4) organizing more than 10 citizens of the people's Republic of China to gamble abroad to collect kickbacks and introction feesextended information:
there are three kinds of behaviors that constitute gambling crime:
(1) gathering people to gamble, that is, providing casinos and gambling equipment for gambling activities, organizing and attracting others to participate in gambling, and taking advantage of them. When gathering people to gamble, some of the actors take part in gambling themselves, while others do not take part in gambling themselves, but they all belong to the situation of gathering people to gamble
(2) to set up a gambling house, that is to say, for the purpose of making profits, to provide a place for gambling, to set up a way of gambling, to provide gambling equipment, chips, funds, etc (3) gambling as a business, that is, gambling as a regular business, gambling income as the main source of livelihood or the main source of profligacy. As long as for the purpose of making profits, it is a gambling crime to carry out one of the above behaviors of gathering people to gamble, opening a gambling house or taking gambling as a business. Whoever commits the crime of gambling shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention or public surveillance and shall also be finedin the implementation, we should pay attention to distinguish the boundaries between gambling crimes and general gambling violations. In the determination of gambling crime, the actor's subjective purpose is to make profits, and objectively has the behavior of gathering people to gamble, opening casinos or taking gambling as a business. The two conditions must be met at the same time. Those who take part in gambling for many times but do not take it as the main source of life or extravagance, or those who provide places and gambling tools but do not profit from them, shall not be punished as crimes and may be punished according to law
