Computer mining bitcoin
at present, the computing power of bitcoin in the whole network has reached 2.36 billion hash collisions per second, which is equivalent to the number of water droplets in more than 200000 50 meter long standard swimming pools. But even with such a large amount of computing power, it will take about 10 minutes to hit a hash value that meets the requirements
in 2012, bitcoin's output was halved for the first time, and in July 2016, bitcoin's output was halved for the second time. At present, 12.5 bitcoins are awarded for recording one page of account book. The next halving will take place around 2020, and the total number of bitcoins will not increase by 2040, with a total of 21 million. In other words, the difficulty of digging bitcoin is increasing, while the time required is increasing
first of all, mining is the main way to obtain bitcoin, but the current threshold of mining is relatively high. If you choose to mine by yourself, first you need to understand certain technology, then download the bitcoin client and mine by yourself according to the online bitcoin mining tutorial
however, in theory, bitcoin can still be mined with computers or graphics cards. However, e to the development of mining instry in recent years, the whole network computing power of bitcoin is extremely terrible (more than supercomputers), so if you want to mine with computers or graphics cards, you can't find bitcoin, If you want to dig bitcoin, you still need to buy mining machines. Now the better mainstream mining machines in the market have to be tens of thousands. Of course, there are cheap second-hand mining machines, but these second-hand mining machines are all obsolete ones, and the electricity cost of mining is relatively high
in addition to the second way of direct purchase, the digital currency exchange is a special place for bitcoin trading. If you want to own a bitcoin, you can buy it directly with money. However, it should be noted that there are many digital currency exchanges in the market at present. Many small exchanges are specialized in cutting users and eating customer losses for a living. Therefore, when choosing an exchange, it is better to focus on the head exchange. For example, Hufu exchange, one of the leading exchanges in China, has been in use for nearly two years and is still very stable and safe.
You can't dig in a day. It takes 2000 years
the global unified computing difficulty of bitcoin is 2621404453 (expected to change in two days). It takes more than 2000 years for a 2.5GHz CPU to work out a bitcoin
in order to make the graphics card fully loaded for a long time, the power consumption will be quite high, and the electricity bill will be higher and higher. Many professional mines at home and abroad are operated in areas with extremely low electricity charges, such as hydropower stations, while more users can only mine at home or in ordinary mines, so the electricity charges are not cheap. Even in a certain residential area in Yunnan, there was a case of crazy mining, which led to a large area trip of the residential area, and the transformer was burned
extended data:
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 bitcoin network will generate a certain amount of bitcoin as block reward to reward the person who gets the answer
when bitcoin was born in 2009, block rewards were 50 bitcoins. Ten minutes after its birth, the first 50 bitcoins were generated, and the total amount of money at this time is 50. Then bitcoin grew at a rate of about 50 every 10 minutes. When the total amount reaches 10.5 million (50% of 21 million), the block reward will be halved to 25
when the total amount reaches 15.75 million (5.25 million new output, i.e. 50% of 1050), the block reward will be further halved to 12.5. The monetary system used to have no more than 10.5 million in four years, after which the total number will be permanently limited to about 21 million
The steps are as follows:
1. Add a mine pool. 2. Download the software. 3. Start digging after setting
however, it is suggested that the building owner give up and dig bitcoin mainly depends on the GPU, that is, the processing chip on the graphics card. The home computer integrated graphics card can't be g at all. If the independent graphics card is NVIDIA chip, it's basically useless, because the most computing power is 160m / s
according to the income ratio, the calculation power of the machine is less than 8g / S (8192m / s), even the electricity fee is not enough, so it's meaningless to dig with a home computer for more than ten yuan a month. If you really want to dig, you should buy a mining machine
landlord, level 60, if you have enough money, you can get into a set of better equipment The attack is improved as much as possible. If you don't have money, you can dig the mines and the pearls. If you do a good job in making money, it's not so easy to die. Besides, Yunlu's defense is low and there's little blood, so it's easy to die. But when the equipment goes up, it's very powerful with good operation
1. The calculation is mainly done by GPU, while the GPU of ordinary computers is not very powerful, which directly leads to low mining efficiency, and even the electricity bill can not be recovered
2. Because it is used to exchange data on the network, not only the performance of the computer should be good enough, but also the network bandwidth and quality should be higher. If you are asked to build a telecom 100 MB broadband before, I wonder if you are still so interested
3. GPU will generate a lot of heat ring calculation. If it is not handled properly or the original radiator is very dirty, it may burn the GPU or computer, and the gain will not be worth the loss
4. The other is the impact of the environment. Let's not say where bitcoin is going to go, let's say that the current exchange rate is seriously declining and there is no money to make before. Professional mines are even processing equipment. It's obviously unreasonable to go mining at this time
of course, if the computer is not yours, you don't have to pay for the electricity, and broadband doesn't need money, then you can try it....
