Must it be connected to the mine pool

1.

Mine pool refers to:

as the computing level of the whole bitcoin network continues to rise exponentially, a single device or a small amount of computing power can not get the block reward provided by the bitcoin network on the bitcoin network

after the computing power of the whole network has been improved to a certain extent, the low probability of getting rewards has prompted some geeks on "bitcoin talk" to develop a method that can combine a small amount of computing power and operate jointly, and the website established in this way is called "mine pool"

extended data:

the existence of the mine pool reces the difficulty of bitcoin and other virtual digital currency mining, reces the mining threshold, and truly realizes the bitcoin mining concept that everyone can participate in

but its disadvantages are also very obvious, because computing power is connected to the mine pool. As a mine pool, it will have huge computing power resources. In the bitcoin world, computing power represents the bookkeeping right, and computing power is everything. If the computing power of a single mine pool reaches more than 50%, it will be easy to launch 51% attacks against virtual digital currencies such as bitcoin, The consequences are very terrible:

the mine pool can make the mine pool with 49% of the remaining computing power have no harvest, instantly quit the competition and go bankrupt. The mine pool's computing power exceeds 50%. If 51% attack is launched, it will easily occupy all the effective computing power of the whole network

2.

After the computing power of the whole network has been improved to a certain extent, the probability of getting rewards is too low, so that some geeks on "bitcoin talk" can develop a method that can combine a small amount of computing power and operate jointly, and use this method to build websites

in this mechanism, no matter how much computing power an indivial miner can use, as long as he participates in mining activities by joining the mine pool, no matter whether he has successfully mined effective data blocks, he can get a small amount of bitcoin reward through his contribution to the mine pool, that is to say, many people cooperate in mining, and the bitcoin reward is shared by many people according to their contribution

as of January 2019, the top five bitcoin pools in global computing power are btc.com, pool, antpool, flush pool, and f2pool. At present, about 70% of global computing power is in the hands of Chinese miners

extended data:

handling charge:

bitcoin miners will charge a small amount of fees for most transactions, the main purpose of which is to prevent people from sending a large number of boring small transactions and wasting network resources. At present, most of the handling charges for each transaction are & T 3647; 0.0001/kb (0.0001btc / KB). In fact, after 0.9.0, the default handling charge will be reced to & 3647; 0.00001/KB(0.00001 btc/KB)

because the amount of data occupied by most transactions is less than 1 kilobyte, generally speaking, the amount of data is less than 3647; 0.00001 (0.00001 BTC / KB) is enough. At the same time, in the future, when the bitcoin block rewards are less, the service charge will become the main source of miners' income, and the service charge of bitcoin will be related to the number of bytes occupied by the transaction

at present, the calculation standard of service charge in bitcoin system is not mandatory, so users can not give any service charge when the transaction is in progress

however, most miners usually give priority to the transaction with higher handling charges when building data blocks, so that they can get higher remuneration when mining is successful. Therefore, the transaction without any handling charges may take a long time to be processed and incorporated into the blockchain

in addition, e to the block capacity limit of 1MB and the recent increase in bitcoin transaction volume, the handling charges have increased significantly, and the waiting time for the transaction to be confirmed has also become much longer

3. At present, with the increase in the number of people mining in various currencies, the difficulty is also increasing. If you mine with a single computer, the possibility of digging out a block is relatively small. Take BTC for example, it is very likely that you will find one in half a year; If you connect your own miner to the mine pool, you can ensure that you have a basic income every day, which is relatively stable for miners. The premise is to select a suitable ore pool according to different currencies. Generally speaking, the current mining pools: ant mining pool, fish mining pool, coin printing mining pool, viabtc, flypool are all pretty good

4. Mining is actually competing for the right to pack in the block
as tens of thousands of miners compete for the right to pack, the probability of a single miner seizing the right to pack is very small, and the output is very unstable. It is possible to grab the right once an hour or not once a year
in order to stabilize the mining output, miners often choose to join the mining pool. The mining pool integrates the computing power of a large number of miners and occupies a certain share in the total computing power of the whole network, so as to obtain a more stable mining output. After charging 2% ~ 4% of the pool handling charge, the output is distributed to the miners according to the miners' computing power
it's just like that it's hard for one person to win the lottery, so the mine pool organizes many people to buy the lottery together, and after winning the lottery, they are distributed to everyone according to the amount of contribution.

5. The computing power and block output of the whole network can reach taobit http://www.taobtc.net/ See
1. First of all, as a node mine pool, the mine pool construction itself needs to add node files, showing the number of connections below the bitcoin wallet. After adding nodes, the number of connections can reach dozens or even more, depending on how many nodes you add, effectively recing invalid shares
2. How to fix the calculation difficulty of mining equipment for miners? Set it in your mining equipment startup bat
for example, if your single mining equipment is 10g, you can add / 1000 + 10 after the user name (wallet address) in the bat file. For example, in my bat - / 1000 + 10-p1, what does that mean? This means that your equipment is 10g computing power, and you use a fixed difficulty of 10g in p2pool mining. If you are a 1g device, write / 1000 + 1 at the back, so the difficulty is fixed and the efficiency of the device is effectively improved.

6. The difficulty of bitcoin block is abnormal. Let's forget it. It's impossible to mine without connecting to the mine pool

7. Joining the pool alliance has two advantages for miners: one is that miners can get stable mining income; the other is that miners only need to be responsible for hash operation, and other things are handled by the pool, which improves the mining efficiency. In other words, by adding a large proportion of computing power in the mine pool collection network, it is far more likely and less risky for miners to obtain block rewards alone.

8. Software and hardware come second... If you can't afford the electricity charge, you don't recommend yourself to mine by computer.
with the current market price and quantity of mining, those who don't go into the mining pool are g by yourself in places with subsidized electricity charge, such as hydropower stations and agricultural pumping stations. Civil electric mining is at a loss

9. It is a fully automatic mining platform, which enables miners to contribute their own computing power to mine together to create blocks, obtain block rewards, and distribute profits according to the proportion of computing power contribution (that is, mining machines are connected to the mine pool, provide computing power, and obtain profits).

10. I understand that this belongs to two modes. Self built cluster is much better than access to the mine pool. It has its own independent property rights and nodes, and the cost is relatively low. However, access to the mine pool is different. The property rights of mining machinery and nodes are controlled by the mine pool side, and the operating costs are high, so we earn less, Another point is that the rate of return of self built cluster is much higher than that of access to the mine pool, so it is not necessary to access the mine pool if self built cluster can be used.
