What does virtual currency mining mean
mining is a nickname for the exploration method of acquiring bitcoin. Because of its working principle is very similar to mining minerals, so named. In addition, bitcoin explorers who do mining work are also known as miners
bitcoin network generates new bitcoin through "mining". In essence, the so-called "mining" is to use computers to solve a complex mathematical problem to ensure the consistency of bitcoin network distributed accounting system
bitcoin network will automatically adjust the difficulty of mathematical problems, so that the whole network can get a qualified answer about every 10 minutes
then the bitcoin network will generate a certain amount of bitcoin as a reward to reward the person who gets the answer
extended data:
to be a miner, just "mine" bitcoin and search for 64 bit numbers by computer. By repeatedly decrypting with a computer, it competes with other gold miners to provide the number needed for the bitcoin network
if the computer can successfully create a set of numbers, it will get 25 bitcoins. Bitcoin is decentralized. It needs to create a fixed number of bitcoins per unit of computing time. It can get 25 bitcoins every 10 minutes
by 2140, the upper limit of bitcoin in circulation will reach 21 million. In other words, bitcoin system can be self-sufficient, which can be translated into coding to resist inflation and prevent others from sabotaging< br />
Bitcoin mining is a process that uses computer hardware to calculate the location of bitcoin and obtain it
mining is an incentive process to record data in the bitcoin system. In the bitcoin system, indivial users have the right to pack blocks after calculating a specific hash value by using CPU or GPU to hash
and in order to reward this user for packing blocks, the system will give a certain amount of bitcoin as reward. Because this process is very similar to "mining" in real life, most people call this process mining. In addition to bitcoin, other electronic virtual currencies can also be obtained through mining rewards, such as Ethereum, Monroe and so on
extended data:
mining risk:
1, currency security
the withdrawal of bitcoin requires hundreds of keys, and most people will record this long string of numbers on the computer, but frequent problems such as hard disk damage will make the key permanently lost, which also leads to the loss of bitcoin
2, system risk
system risk is very common in bitcoin, and the most common one is bifurcation. Bifurcation will lead to a drop in currency price and a sharp drop in mining income. However, many cases show that the forking will benefit the miners, and the forked competitive currency also needs the miners' computing power to complete the minting and trading process. In order to win more miners, the competitive currency will provide more block rewards and handling charges to attract miners. Risk makes miners
I hope I can help you. Thank you for your adoption.
Bitcoin is the first distributed virtual currency
to mine bitcoin, you can download the special bitcoin computing tools, register various cooperation websites, fill the registered user name and password into the computing program, and then click the operation to officially start. After completing the installation of bitcoin client, you can directly obtain a bitcoin address. When others pay, you only need to paste the address to others, and you can pay through the same client
after installing the bitcoin client, it will assign a private key and a public key. You need to back up the wallet data containing your private key to ensure that your property is not lost. Unfortunately, if the hard disk is completely formatted, personal bitcoin will be completely lost
extended information:
as a virtual commodity, bitcoin itself has no national boundaries, and its operation mode is a "decentralized" monetary system, which is very convenient for one-time large transaction. Bitcoin is traded through the network, and the owner's identity is only in the form of a set of encrypted computer code
in the operation, input a digital address directly, click the mouse a few times, and wait for the confirmation of the transaction to complete the transaction. The network can only record which address a bitcoin was g up from and how it was transferred
however, the identity of the owners of these addresses can not be verified, which is just like when money goes to an ownerless bank account, the relevant transactions can easily be invisible from the perspective of government supervision, and it is difficult to be tracked or intercepted. In addition, bitcoin can evade the scrutiny of exchange control institutions required by normal cross-border remittance, and the transaction records will not be recorded by banks and other parties
naturally, the problem of reporting to relevant departments after the transaction exceeds a certain amount is avoided. Buy bitcoin with domestic currency, sell it on foreign trading platforms, and withdraw it in US dollars. Asset transfer can be completed in a few minutes
it is not difficult to open an overseas bank account related to bitcoin for foreign exchange, and the conversion is very convenient. Because of these characteristics, bitcoin has been chosen by criminal organizations
Bitcoin is actually a virtual currency. When bitcoin first appeared, if you want to get bitcoin, you have to get bitcoin through mining. Therefore, bitcoin mining appeared. But bitcoin mining is more and more difficult, so it is very difficult to get bitcoin now
so now many people use Haru miner digs Ethereum, Monroe and other virtual coins. Most importantly, BTC can be directly equivalent in the end
Mining means that users download software from personal computers and then run specific algorithms to get corresponding bitcoin after communicating with remote servers
bitcoin is a kind of network virtual currency. Internet users can use bitcoin to buy some virtual goods, such as clothes, hats and equipment in online games. Internet users can also use bitcoin to buy real goods
bitcoin mining system is the process of carrying out mathematical operation for bitcoin network through computer hardware, and the miners who provide services can get a reward, because the network reward is calculated according to the tasks completed by the miners, so the competition for mining is very fierce
bitcoin mining started with low-cost hardware such as CPU or GPU, but with the popularity of bitcoin, the mining process has changed greatly. Nowadays, the mining activities are transferred to the field programmable gate array, and the hash speed can be achieved through optimization. The mining efficiency of this mode is very high

extended materials:
the founder of bitcoin:
on November 1, 2008, a person who called himself Satoshi Nakamoto posted a research statement on a secret cryptography review group, stating his new idea of e-money - bitcoin came out and the first transaction of bitcoin was completed
bitcoin has got rid of the constraints of third-party organizations with the help of Internet, which Nakamoto calls "regional chain". Users are willing to dedicate the computing power of CPU and run a special software to be a "digger", which will form a network to maintain the "regional chain". In the process, they also generate new money
trading is also extended on this network. The computer running this software can solve the problem of irreversible code, which contains several trading data
the first "miner" to deal with the problem will be rewarded with 50 bitcoin, and the relevant trading area will join the chain. As the number of "miners" increases, the difficulty of each puzzle also increases, which keeps the proctivity of bitcoin in each trading area at about 10 minutes
in 2009, Nakamoto designed a digital currency, namely bitcoin. The booming bitcoin market has gone up and down, and the identity of its founder "Nakamoto" has always been a mystery. Rumors about "the father of bitcoin" involve from the US National Security Agency to financial experts, and also give bitcoin a mysterious aura
2. Digital currency is a kind of unregulated and digital currency, which is usually issued and managed by developers and accepted and used by members of specific virtual communities. The European Banking authority defines virtual currency as a digital representation of value, which is not issued by the central bank or authorities, nor linked with legal currency. However, because it is accepted by the public, it can be used as a means of payment, or it can be transferred, stored or traded in electronic form

bitcoin system is composed of users (users control the wallet through the key), transactions (transactions will be broadcast to the whole bitcoin network) and miners (a blockchain is generated by competitive computing to reach a consensus at each node, and the blockchain is a distributed public authoritative account book, including all transactions in the bitcoin network)
mining is a process of increasing bitcoin money supply. Mining also protects the security of the bitcoin system, prevents fraulent transactions, and avoids "double payment", which means spending the same bitcoin multiple times. Miners offer algorithms for bitcoin networks in exchange for the opportunity to get bitcoin rewards. The miners verify each new transaction and record it in the general ledger. Every 10 minutes, a new block will be "mined", and each block contains all the transactions from the generation of the previous block to the present, which are added to the blockchain in turn. We call the transactions included in the block and added to the blockchain "confirmed" transactions. After the transaction is "confirmed", the new owner can spend the bitcoin he gets in the transaction
there are two types of rewards for miners in the process of Mining: the new currency reward for creating a new block, and the transaction fee for the transaction contained in the block. In order to get these rewards, miners compete to complete a mathematical problem based on encrypted hash algorithm, that is, to use bitcoin mining machine to calculate the hash algorithm. This requires strong computing power, how much the calculation process is, and whether the calculation results are good or bad. As the proof of miners' calculation workload, it is called "workload proof". The competition mechanism of the algorithm and the mechanism that the winner has the right to record transactions on the blockchain ensure the security of bitcoin
miners also get transaction fees. Each transaction may contain a transaction fee, which is the difference between the input and output of each transaction. A miner who successfully "digs" a new block in the process of mining can get all the transaction "tips" contained in the block. With the decrease of mining reward and the increase of the number of transactions in each block, the proportion of transaction fee in miners' income will graally increase. After 2140, all miners' earnings will be made up of transaction fees
mining is a process of decentralizing settlement, in which each settlement verifies and settles the processed transaction. Mining protects the security of bitcoin system, and achieves the consensus of the whole bitcoin network without a central organization. The invention of mining makes bitcoin very special. This decentralized security mechanism is the basis of point-to-point e-money. The reward and transaction fee for casting new coins are a kind of incentive mechanism, which can regulate miners' behavior and network security, and at the same time complete the currency issuance of bitcoin.
