Two hands of IPFs mining machine

1. The first point of mining machinery: Linux system

has two main advantages compared with windows

(1) stable system: for example, it is very common for a host with Linux to run continuously for more than one year without downtime or shutdown. My windows system turned on black screen this morning, and then recovered after forced shutdown

(2) fast repair of security and vulnerability: Linux is used by many computer experts, so there are many maintainers, and the update and maintenance is fast, while windows is used by everyone, and it is not open source
therefore, the core system of mining machine is Linux. At present, more than 95% of the global server market choose Linux, which has been verified for a long time, and windows is not recommended as the operating system< The second key point of mining machine is: hard disk

(1) the number of hard disk bits

IPFs is storage mining, and the mining benefit is directly proportional to the size of storage capacity, so if you want to dig more money, you have to have more hard disk bits, and the mining machine with 16 disks and 24 disks is preferred

(2) hard disk installation

if you need to shut down every time you increase or decrease the hard disk, you may not get enough money to be punished and dected. IPFs mining machine needs to work stably, so it must support hot plug
(3) hard disk compatibility

supports the mixed insertion of different brands and capacities of hard disks, which can be collocated at will according to their own needs. Only by making full use of the capacity of hard disks can we maximize the revenue
the third key point of mining machine: CPU, motherboard

CPU and motherboard should be able to point out the actual working situation of multiple hard disks, and the hardware collocation should be reasonable. For example, the configuration can only support 4T multiple hard disks. If multiple 8t hard disks are inserted, it will lead to a small horse pulling a cart, causing a crash and burning the hard disk, motherboard, CPU, etc. Therefore, the hardware configuration should be rendant, and about 8t hard disk storage space should be reserved< Key points of Miner: built in mining software

the performance of built-in mining software is better, otherwise the miner's mining situation can't be well connected with the main chain, and the main chain can't read the miner's work well, resulting in data loss and mapping data error. For example, if you save 20t and the main chain only reads 10t, you will lose the reward of storing 10t. So the software R & D team must have strength. With the upgrading of technology and the analysis of mining data, software system is also needed to ensure or improve the mining efficiency.

2. bitcoin mining machine is one of the ways to get bitcoin. Any computer can become a mining machine, but the benefit will be relatively low. It may not be able to dig a bitcoin in ten years. Many companies have developed professional bitcoin mining machines, which are equipped with special mining chips, and their computing speed is tens or hundreds of times higher than that of ordinary computers. From the initial CPU to the graphics card to the special bitcoin miner, bitcoin mining is very difficult now. Many people choose the mine pool, which is very power consuming and noisy
IPFs was just started in 2018, and it started to be popular in 2019 recently. Because the main network has not been officially launched, it has not been possible to start formal mining. However, many people have started to reserve hard disk mining machines now, because it is cheaper now. For example, the interstellar Aoyun is a more popular one. It is estimated that it will have to go up a lot at that time
IPFs miner is more environmentally friendly than bitcoin miner. It uses hard disk to mine, so the noise and power consumption will be greatly reced. Moreover, hard disk is not easy to depreciate, so the cost of participation will be relatively low.

3.

IPFs is a file transfer protocol similar to http. If IPFs wants to run, it needs many computers (storage devices) in the network as nodes. In a broad sense, all participating computers can be called IPFs mining machines

in order to attract more users to join the IPFs network and contribute to the network, an encryption currency named filecoin is designed, which is distributed to the participants (nodes) as a reward according to the amount of contributed storage space and bandwidth. In a narrow sense, the computer specially designed for the purpose of obtaining the filecoin reward is called IPFs mining machine

because IPFs network needs storage space and network bandwidth, in order to obtain the highest profit ratio, IPFs mining machine usually strengthens the storage space and reces the power consumption of the whole machine. For example, more than 10 high-capacity hard disks are equipped, Gigabit or higher speed network cards are equipped, and ultra-low power architecture processors are used

of course, the mining machine provides storage services, so it can obtain revenue. The size of revenue is related to the configuration of mining machinery and the number of IPFs mining machinery

extended data

the reasons why it is not recommended to invest in IPFs are as follows:

1. IPFs technology is too early to be commercialized

IPFs now takes up a lot of bandwidth. IPNs is very slow at present, which is an obvious technical defect. It will be very difficult to realize dynamic web pages only through IPFs

There is no reasonable economic model, even if the token economy is added, it is difficult to realize the long-term natural ecological value

as a very cumbersome decentralized protocol, it is difficult for users to share files autonomously and spontaneously. In addition, even if users share files into the protocol, the files will be completely open and users cannot delete files effectively, so the security of valid files is threatened

the solution is to introce encryption and blockchain incentive mechanism. At the same time, it solves the security and storage power problems of files. However, as mentioned before, any node with workload proof under blockchain incentive mechanism will face an economic problem of continuous power on state

It is difficult to establish an ecological network with IPFs as the core under the influence of technical problems

The ecological application space of

IPFs is quite limited, and the project interaction speed realized by IPFs protocol is also very slow. Of course, it has a direct relationship with the number of nodes and the distance of calling

4. Hard disk is the most important accessory of IPFs filecoin mining machine. The performance indexes of hard disk include hard disk capacity, hard disk speed, hard disk speed, interface, cache, single disk capacity, etc
because the essence of filecoin mining is storage, from the perspective of data security, most mining machinery manufacturers currently use 8t enterprise class SATA mechanical hard disk, with a price of about 1300-1500 yuan. A few mining machinery manufacturers choose 10t or 12t, and they basically choose several mainstream brands, such as Seagate, western data or Toshiba, A 12 bit blade server with 8t hard disk can have 96T storage space
SSD is generally not considered, because the cost performance is low, and if the data is lost, it is difficult to recover. If the data is lost ring the mining of filecoin, there is a penalty
generally, the CPU of mining machinery will choose inter or AMD platforms. Some mining machinery manufacturers only list inter E5 level, but do not specify that it is E5 with several cores. We must pay attention to the official requirement of minimum 8 cores
only a few single machine mining will use Inter's E5, E7 or AMD 3970x. The more mainstream mining association will choose to use the affordable amd platform with high cost performance for cluster mining. Few people choose the inter platform. Moreover, single machine mining requires high memory and low cost performance
AMD epyc7302 and 7282 series CPUs are the mainstream choice of cluster mining. They have been out of stock recently, and it may take half a month or even a month to adjust the goods. Moreover, the price of related accessories suitable for building filecoin mining machine is rising recently. For example, in 2019, the price of h11ssl-i ultra micro server main board is about 3000 yuan, At this stage, 5500 yuan can only take the futures after a week, so it is difficult for people who have no relevant channels to assemble their own accessories. Whether it's accessories or finished mining machines, it's almost one price a day
considering that each person's specific cost of taking goods is different from the cost of assembly and configuration, we can calculate the cost of a mainstream 96tb miner. If we have accessory related channels and have the strength to assemble, the cost is about 50000 yuan. If we buy finished procts directly, it is about 80000 yuan
if you want to buy the most affordable IPFs filecoin miner, you can pay attention to our company Zhonghao: old Chen Shuo coin

5. There are many choices, but many are pitfalls
I think it's the best way to try hosting, because the main factors of IPFs mining are broadband and location. In fact, the household miner can't get the list at all, so it's not profitable. At present, IPFs has not been on the main network, so the mining machines are basically in the promotion stage, and the cost performance is a relatively good period of time. The future revenue of IPFs is still worth looking forward to
I don't know if the name of the mining machine is suspected of being advertised. Anyway, there is a mining machine named "153 IPFs". After comparison, it's good to ensure the intelligence of Benjin mining strategy and mining strategy (IPFs needs to adjust mining strategy)
recently, I chatted with the people in this team. I think it's reliable and the grade is not big, so I'm idealistic and energetic

6. First of all, IFPs is an agreement, and IPFs can't dig. What we call IFPs digging money is actually digging the incentive layer of IFPs, filecoin. Currently, filecoin has not been launched. According to the official reply, it is expected to be in 2019q2 / Q3; After going online, we can gain profits by being a storage miner and searching miner. The prospect of this project is still very big. The main way for miners to benefit is to need enough storage space and bandwidth. At present, there are many deceptive elements in the devices sold on the market, and I have learned a lot about them before. The reliable one is the matrix Z3 of Hangzhou Diancun, which meets the hardware conditions and has enough software development strength support. If you think about it, you can learn more about it.

7. IPFs mining machine is specially designed for the purpose of obtaining the filecoin reward. I have a friend bought chain IPFs miner, not bad!

8. IPFs is a popular project now. Mining machine is actually a high configuration computer. The essence of mining is to calculate encrypted digital currency through this computer. High performance and high configuration computer is called mining machine. Now most investors choose star ant mining machine.
