Ethereum client installation sequence
Miner components include CPU, GPU, motherboard and hard disk, similar to a high configuration computer with a hard disk. Self assembly mainly depends on which aspect of hardware performance you want to highlight
mining machine has computing power, display card mining machine and storage mining machine. Daotong storage has long been concerned about the dynamic and hardware supply of mining machine, and its own components will be cheaper than those of the manufacturer< br />
Ethereum is an open source public blockchain platform with smart contract function. It provides decentralized virtual machine (Ethereum virtual machine) to process point-to-point contract through its special cryptocurrency ether (also known as "Ethereum")
The token on theblockchain is called ether, and the code is eth. It can be traded in many foreign exchange markets of cryptocurrency, and it is also the medium used to pay transaction fees and computing services on Ethereum
the concept of Ethereum was first proposed by vitalik buterin, a programmer, from 2013 to 2014, inspired by bitcoin, with the general meaning of "next generation cryptocurrency and decentralized application platform", and began to develop through ICO crowdfunding in 2014. As of February 2018, Ethernet is the second highest cryptocurrency in market value, second only to bitcoin
extended data:
Ethereum platform has no characteristics and value. Like programming languages, it's up to entrepreneurs and developers to decide what to use. However, it is clear that some application types benefit more from the functions of Ethereum than others. Ethereum is especially suitable for those applications that automatically interact directly between points or promote group coordination activities across networks
for example, coordinate the application of point-to-point market, or the automation of complex financial contracts. Bitcoin enables indivials to exchange money without the help of financial institutions, banks or governments. The impact of Ethereum may be more profound
in theory, any complex financial activities or transactions can be automatically and reliably carried out on Ethereum with coding. In addition to financial applications, any application scenario with high requirements for trust, security and persistence, such as asset registration, voting, management and Internet of things, will be affected by Ethereum platform on a large scale
built in smart contract compilation, linking, deployment and binary file management
automatic contract testing under rapid development
scripted and extensible deployment and publishing framework
the network environment management function deployed to no matter how many public or private networks
uses the package management provided by ethpm & NPM and erc190 standard
a direct interactive console that communicates directly with the contract (after writing the contract, you can verify it on the command line)
the configurable construction process supports tight integration
external scripts can be executed in truffle environment< Truffle is the most popular development framework, whose mission is to make development easier
installation method:
$NPM install - G truffle
environment requirements
nodejs 5.0 +
windows, Linux, or Mac OS X
truffle needs Ethereum client and supports standard JSON RPC API. For development, some are more suitable, which will be introced in the following chapters (for example, testrpc provides real-time feedback ring coding and debugging)
suggestions for Windows users
if you are a Windows user, we recommend that you use PowerShell or git bash to install and use the truffle framework. These two shell environments provide more convenient features than the default
if you have to use the command line, see the discussion here on how to configure truffle.
