World mine pool statistics
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
because the probability of a single miner digging a block is very small, after all, it takes a lot of computing power to dig a block in 10 minutes. Even if there is such a large amount of computing power and the ability to dig, there are many competitors. So it becomes a game of 0 and 1. And the emergence of the mine pool is to break the 0 and 1 play. The computing power of a mine pool is a collection of many miners' computing power, which is far more likely than fighting alone. Every time you dig a block in the mine, you will be rewarded to the indivial according to the percentage of the calculation power of your mining machine in the total calculation power of the mine, and there will be no unfair situation.

everyone can set up a mine pool, if you want, and someone else wants to join
note that if no one joins, you are the only one competing with others in this mine pool. I'm afraid your computing power is not a drop in the ocean in the whole network, and the success rate is too low
therefore, most miners join in the large mine pool and do not set up their own
of course, if you have the strength, you can also set up your own mine pool. This information is public, and you can use the Internet. thank you.
your calculation method is basically correct, but there may be some deviation in understanding. This is to join the mine pool, and it is absolutely stable. If you dig alone, you'll get 25 at a time, or you'll never get them. Of course, it's more likely that you'll never find it. If you join the mine pool, although the mine pool is large, it is still difficult to get rid of the element of luck, so it will not be particularly stable. Moreover, different distribution methods will lead to different results. In addition, there are some handling charges for the mine. If all the computing power in the world is in the same mine pool, and the mine pool does not have a service charge. The computing power has been stable. So that's what you think.
I think there is still a market for bitcoin mining, but from the era when ordinary computers can participate in bitcoin mining to today's mines, miners all over the world compete in computing power at the same time. With the increasing number of miners, the difficulty index of the game is getting higher and higher, and it depends on their strength to play it in the end. If you want to open a mine, then the basic costs include mining machinery, electricity, maintenance, labor, mine rental, etc., and the only source of income is to replace the bitcoin with legal currency. Mining machinery will be lost, bitcoin prices will fluctuate, and electricity charges will rise, all of which are uncontrollable therefore, a certain price of bitcoin is lower than the mining cost, which has a great impact on small and medium-sized investors and the vast majority of retail investors, but has almost no impact on the mines with huge financial support. There is a market for mining, but retail investors and small and medium-sized investors are graally eliminated
