Does ether miner really make money

2.

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

3. Is it going to be a large mine or a private family
it's up to the family to dig. Large can be prepared on a host of 6 or 8 graphics cards, need rx570 (580), or gtx10610170. Then in the preparation of 20 hosts or more can make money. At least 10

4. How hot is it? I've heard about mining! Not through computer equipment, are basically liars! It's all about blockchains. So as to cheat some small white user's money! Of course, some people make money! Most people don't make money, you know! Like you!

5. Making money with low-cost electricity resources

6. The price of bitcoin has gone up abruptly, and the old miners who left the mine have begun to return. Many new people have also poured into the mining instry. However, the price has gone up, and the difficulty of mining bitcoin is also rising. How can we make money from mining now
- - talking about the mining cost of bitcoin -
the first thing to consider is the cost if you want to make money. If the profit is greater than the cost, it is worth doing. We all know how much bitcoin costs, so let's calculate the cost
1. Mining machine cost: the "number" of bitcoin is a problem-solving process, which can't be calculated by human brain alone. Therefore, mining people need to buy mining machines and keep calculating. The more mining machines, the stronger the computing power
2. Electricity charges: mining machines are big consumers of high power. How much electricity does it consume? Let's put it this way. At present, the electricity consumption of bitcoin and Ethereum mining has surpassed Jordan, Iceland, Libya and other small countries, ranking 71st among all countries and regions in the world. You want to cry when electricity is expensive
3. The rent of the place where the mining machine is placed: because the mining machine consumes a lot of electricity, the power supply load of ordinary residential buildings can not be guaranteed at all, so the mining must rent a commercial site separately, and the rent is much more expensive than that of ordinary residential buildings
4. Operation cost: in order to ensure the computing power, the high-power mining machine needs to work 24 hours, which requires someone to maintain it at any time. When the mining machine is in trouble, the cost of hiring someone is required; At the same time, the mining machine is very delicate. If it is too hot or too cold, the vegetables will be stopped. Therefore, the measures of cold air and cold water insulation are needed to help the mining machine run. This is another expense
5. Mining machine update cost: because bitcoin is becoming more and more difficult to dig, the machine that was able to dig a month ago may not be able to dig anything today, and the market will also launch mining machines with greater computing power. The original mining machine is not worth money immediately. If you want to maintain computing power, you need to buy mining machines again
the above bitcoin mining costs all have a marginal effect, that is, the larger the volume is, the lower the corresponding cost will be. Therefore, some super large mines have been built
bitcoin g in the mine will enter the mine pool and be distributed by all participants. Large mines will be built in places where labor and electricity are cheap, such as Venezuela, the legendary miner's paradise, or Iceland, where the climate is favorable and electricity is cheap
as for the cost, everyone will be different. Let's take a look at an average: in 2017, according to the data of elite fixtures, a research institution, Venezuela is the cheapest of 115 mining countries, which is 513 US dollars, while South Korea is the most expensive, which is 26170 us dollars
China's mining cost is US $3172, which is relatively low among 115 countries. However, the cost is an average value. Large mines with low electricity prices must be much lower. If you are a lone ranger, the cost will rise sharply
in a word, if you really want to make money by mining, first of all, unless you are rich enough to build a mine with thousands of machines, you'd better join a mine to dig together. Although you have to share the money, it's still appropriate in the long run because it can greatly rece costs and improve computing power
secondly, whether you dig by yourself or join the mine, you must choose the place with low electricity cost, and the city with abundant hydropower resources is preferred, because hydropower is the cheapest source of power generation in China at present.
