Zero coin mining settings
The first step in setting up mining equipment is to choose the right hardware. This article will focus on GPU (graphics card) mining, of course, you can use CPU or ASIC equipment mining. Amd graphics card architecture is very beneficial to mining. NVIDIA card is not suitable for mining because of its low hash rate. The best NVIDIA graphics cards are less than 0.5 megahash. Notebook Hardware mining is not as good as NVIDIA card, which is a bad option for mining. You need to use a desktop system for mining. There is a desktop system to ensure adequate cooling of the hardware
the graphics card or card needs to be able to match the motherboard, and the power supply must have enough PCI-E connectors. Before determining the graphics card, pay attention to these. In order for the system to cool down sufficiently, you need to remove the cover of the chassis in order to get better heat dissipation. This is what people call "open air rig.". If you can aim the system at a fan or air conditioner, you can make the device cooler when it's running, thus extending its life and keeping it efficient
secure payment. Qwc has no pre excavation and ICO, and adopts cryptonight algorithm (supporting mainstream mining machine X3 and A8 +) POW mining.
Mining needs high-end graphics card, mining equipment is the first to eliminate NV graphics card. Mining must be done with graphics cards. The overall structure of mining equipment and ordinary PC machine is different is the number of graphics cards. You can install four or eight through pic extension
after expansion, an expansion shelf needs to be made. To fix the graphics card and other equipment, we need to get some fans on the shelf to cool the graphics card
CPU is not very important. But not lower than i5< br />
Mining is the use of bitcoin mining machine, which is used to earn bitcoin
one of the ways to get bitcoin is that users download software from personal computer and then run specific algorithm to get corresponding bitcoin after communicating with remote server
bitcoin is a kind of virtual currency. Bitcoin mining system is the process of carrying out mathematical operation for bitcoin network through computer hardware. Miners who provide services can get a reward, because the network reward is calculated according to the tasks completed by miners, so the competition for mining is very fierce
mining is actually a competition of performance and equipment. The mining machine composed of many graphics cards, even if it's only hd6770, can surpass the single graphics card of most users
and this is not the most terrible. Some mining machines are made up of more such graphics card arrays. When dozens or even hundreds of graphics cards come together, the graphics card itself costs money. Considering the hardware price and other costs, there is a considerable expenditure in mining
bitcoin mining process:
1. To find the ore pool
to start mining, there must be a ore pool with convenient operation and stable output. Its function is to subdivide the data packets for each terminal, and pay the corresponding amount of bitcoin according to the proportion of the data packets calculated by the terminal through precise algorithm
2. Download bitcoin miner (software)
in fact, there are many kinds of this miner, you can go to the official website to download
3. Setting mining software is a green software. After installation, we can set the language first to facilitate further setting. Next, you need to set the server, user name, password, equipment and so on. Generally, the server chooses a better network from BTC guide series, and the user name and password are set by ourselves before
4, bitcoin mining start
when we confirm that all settings are correct, click the "start mining" button to start bitcoin mining, and then the graphics card will soon enter the full speed running state, the temperature and fan speed will increase, you can monitor the state through gpu-z or graphics card driver
with the increasing capacity of bitcoin blockchain data, the client wallet data is installed on Disk C by default. If Disk C is not large enough, you need to find a way to move the data from disk C to other disks
examples are as follows: (Note: close the client first)
1. Find bitcoin's data folder:
XP --- C: & # 92; Documents and Settings\ username\ Application Data\ Bitcoin
vista,win7---C:\ Users\ username\ AppData\ Roaming\ Bitcoin
2. Copy this bitcoin folder to other disk with large space, such as disk D (to avoid operation error, it is recommended to it first and delete disk C after it runs normally, so as to save disk C space)
3. Edit the bitcoin shortcut on the desktop (if there is no shortcut on the desktop, there are two ways: one is to find the installation folder, find "bitcoin QT. Exe", right-click, and select Create Shortcut to cut the shortcut to the desktop or any location; For the second method, if it is a green installation free version, you can find this installation folder, find "bitcoin-qt.exe", right-click and select Create Shortcut to cut the shortcut to the desktop or anywhere.) Right click on the shortcut, select "properties", enter the following in the "target" column and confirm:
& quot; C:\ Program Files\ Bitcoin\ bitcoin-qt.exe" - datadir=D:\ Bitcoin
(red is the target location of the added part)
now, double-click the bitcoin shortcut on the desktop, the client will start, and all data updates will be stored in disk D, and disk C will no longer occupy space. This method can also avoid data re download caused by deleting Disk C e to system re installation, and can also protect wallet files.
in order to cater to the current mining boom, major manufacturers have released corresponding mining motherboards to seize the market. What can be inserted into the magic board of 13 graphics cards, super stable power supply and so on. It's easy to ignore the BIOS on the motherboard while configuring the heap. Although the current mining has experienced several years of training, but at present, when we assemble the mining machine, we still need to toss BIOS, in order to use the multi card to improve the performance of mining. For most mine friends, it is a great test to brush BIOS. If the brush is broken, the whole board will be scrapped. The major manufacturers in improving the corresponding configuration at the same time, but rarely invest too much research and development in BIOS. The reason is that the BIOS of mining machinery is difficult to develop, the research and development time is too long, and the cost recovery is slow. Therefore, compared with the BIOS of special mining machine, it is better to improve the profit of motherboard configuration
there are many mining motherboards on the market, but there are few motherboards with BIOS specially set for mining. Recently, Meijie has developed a special intelligent BIOS for the newly upgraded professional mining motherboard sy-b85-btc. The BIOS of this motherboard can intelligently identify 6 graphics cards. Save all mine friends time, plug and play, convenient and fast, mining no longer wait. We all know that AMD's mining graphics cards have been sold crazy recently, and NVIDIA can't sit there any more. It is reported that NVIDIA will launch a professional mine card gtx1060, which has no display output interface. Meijie, with foresight, has set up integrated display output for mining BIOS by default. After that, NVIDIA's gtx1060 can be perfectly adapted, more than enough
Meijie sy-b85-btc is based on the scheme design verified by mining instry for many years, and also continues the characteristics of Meijie's high efficiency and low price mine board. As an ATX board, Meijie is equipped with 7-phase luxury power supply, all solid black gold capacitor and PCI-E stabilized capacitor design, to ensure stable and safe mining< The sy-b85-btc adopts B85 chip design, supports the fourth and fifth generation CPU of lga1150 interface, and supports lga115x and LGA775 radiator. It is convenient for miner to upgrade the motherboard and use the old CPU and radiator at the same time. Of course, six PCI-E slots are essential for the motherboard specially designed for mining. Three of them are pci-ex16 slots and three are pci-ex1 slots, which can support up to 6 cards mining. Meijie sy-b85-btc also supports 7 * 24-hour all-weather mining, lightning protection, over-current protection, over-voltage protection, high temperature protection, etc. Such a sharp artifact, how can you not let mining friends heart?
anyone can run software on special hardware to become a bitcoin miner. Mining software monitors transaction broadcast through P2P network and performs appropriate tasks to process and confirm these transactions. Bitcoin miners can earn transaction fees paid by users to speed up transaction processing and additional bitcoin issued according to fixed formula
new transactions need to be included in a block with mathematical workload proof before they can be confirmed. This kind of proof is hard to generate because it can only be generated by trying billions of calculations per second. Miners need to run these calculations before their blocks are accepted and rewarded. As more people start mining, the difficulty of finding effective blocks will be automatically increased by the network to ensure that the average time to find a block remains at 10 minutes. Therefore, the competition for mining is very fierce, and no indivial miner can control the content contained in the block chain
workload proof is also designed to rely on previous blocks, which forces the time sequence of block chain. This design makes it extremely difficult to cancel previous transactions, because the workload proof of all subsequent blocks needs to be recalculated. When two blocks are found at the same time, the miner will process the first block received, and once the next block is found, it will be transferred to the longest block chain. This ensures that the mining process maintains a global consistency based on processing capacity
bitcoin miners can neither increase their rewards by cheating, nor deal with the fraulent transactions that destroy the bitcoin network, because all bitcoin nodes will reject the blocks containing invalid data that violate the bitcoin protocol rules. Therefore, even if not all bitcoin miners can be trusted, the bitcoin network is still secure.
