What is the principle of mining with other people's computers

1.

In short, mining is the use of chips for a random number related calculation, get the answer in exchange for a virtual currency. Virtual currency can be exchanged for the currency of each country through some way. The stronger the computing power, the faster the chip can find this random answer. Theoretically, the more virtual coins can be proced per unit time. Because it's about random numbers, you can only get rewards if you happen to find the answer

In his paper, Nakamoto stated:

"in the absence of central authority, it not only encourages miners to support bitcoin network, but also enables bitcoin's currency circulation system to have the initial source of money injection."

Nakamoto compares the generation of bitcoin by consuming CPU power and time to the consumption of resources by gold mines to inject gold into the economy. Bitcoin mining and node software mainly initiates zero knowledge proof and verification transactions through peer-to-peer network, digital signature and interactive proof system

each network node concts broadcast transactions to the network. After these broadcast transactions are verified by miners (computers on the network), miners can use their own work proof results to express their confirmation. The confirmed transactions will be packaged into data blocks, and the data blocks will form a continuous data block chain

Nakamoto himself designed the first version of bitcoin mining program, which was later developed into the first generation of widely used mining software bitcoin, which was popular from 2009 to mid-2010

each bitcoin node will collect all the unconfirmed transactions and gather them into a data block. The miner node will add a random adjustment number and calculate the SHA-256 hash value of the previous data block. The mining node tries again and again until it finds the random adjustment number so that the hash value is lower than a specific target

extended data

at the earliest, bitcoin miners were mining through Intel or AMD CPU procts. But because mining is a computing intensive application, and with the continuous improvement of mining number and equipment performance, the difficulty graally increases, now using CPU mining has no profit or even loss

as of 2012, since the first quarter of 2013, miners graally began to use GPU or FPGA and other mining equipment [5]. At the same time, a large number of ASIC devices were launched in mid 2013

since July 2013, the computing power of the whole network has shown a straight-line rise e to the large number of ASIC equipment put into operation. Based on the average computing power in July 2013, all CPU mining equipment has been unable to generate positive revenue, and FPGA equipment is close to no revenue

according to the estimation of average computing power in September 2013, the existing small ASIC mining equipment developed for indivials will also be close to no positive revenue in the next 1-2 months. A large amount of computing power is monopolized by cluster ASIC mining equipment with 5 th ash / s or more. Because of no profit, indivial mining is almost squeezed out of mining groups. Some bitcoin miners have raised funds to build machine rooms and install a large number of mining equipment in places where low-cost electricity can be obtained

in order to save the cost of mining, some bitcoin miners make mining programs into malicious programs to infect other people's computers on the network to mine for themselves

2.

First of all, when it comes to mining, bitcoin is indispensable. In fact, this problem is very simple. Any currency, including bitcoin, Leyte coin and infinite coin, is not created without any reason. Bitcoin must be generated by computer calculation. This method of generating bitcoin is called "mining". So how do indivials use computers to mine? Let's learn about it

As long as there is a computer that can access the Internet and download the bitcoin program from the bitcoin website, the first run will generate a digital account, and then keep running, the program will constantly calculate a series of "mathematical problems". When you have successfully calculated "a mathematical problem", the program will continue to run, It's possible to get a certain amount of bitcoin

bitcoin

so bitcoin has high requirements for computer performance, and now it is generally collective mining, and personal computer mining seems to be out of fashion, or even no longer. To participate in mining, it is best to join some mining groups

the data of bitcoin is distributed on every client with wallet installed all over the world. Every transaction will be calculated in the whole network, and the fees you pay and the corresponding algorithm will ensure that the miners will get the corresponding remuneration

Bitcoin is a P2P network. Just like the familiar BT download mode, in order to keep the network running, it is necessary to always keep someone online to upload and share data with others. Therefore, the publishers of BT seeds often ask the sowers to be "Sowers" on the forum, but in fact, BT seeds are often broken. People are selfish. You can't ask everyone to contribute their resources for free, My computer is on. It costs at least electricity

and the bitcoin network, like the BT download, needs "miners" to contribute their computer resources for calculation to ensure the operation of the bitcoin network. If the people who contribute resources like the BT download do not get the benefits, the bitcoin network will die. So the issue of bitcoin is designed that whoever contributes computing power to keep the bitcoin network running can get the fee paid by the network - bitcoin

3. Let's take another example. Our banks need fees to maintain their operation. We all know that bank transfer fees start from 2 yuan, and a card costs 10 yuan a year. But these fees are really the fees that banks need to maintain their operation, otherwise the bank will go bankrupt

In fact, we all know that these fees are reced in various forms. We can consider another mode: all services of banks are free, but as compensation, the state allows banks to issue their own currency, but only 1% of the total amount of all currencies can be issued each year

in this way, all people can enjoy the free service of the bank, but they have to bear 1% inflation virtually. In fact, it's easy for people to accept the immediate benefits - free services (which is the essence of the Internet model), without considering the impact of long-term inflation

this is the basic principle of the issuance and operation of bitcoin. Miners contribute a lot of computing power to maintain the operation and stability of bitcoin network, and in the process of computing, miners can get the new issue of bitcoin. Although inflation has actually occurred, the money in my wallet has not decreased, has it

and a clever design of bitcoin is that there are fewer and fewer new bitcoins, and the new bitcoin issue is decaying, so although bitcoin is not the deflationary currency that most people think, its inflation rate is really getting lower and lower, and finally tends to zero, and once the irrecoverable loss of bitcoin occurs, it will deflate

3.

Computer Mining: when users "mine" bitcoin, they need to use the computer to search for 64 bit numbers, and then compete with other gold miners by repeatedly solving puzzles to provide the required numbers for the bitcoin network. If the user's computer successfully creates a set of numbers, then they will get 25 bitcoins. In short, it's about looking for bitcoin

e to the decentralized programming adopted by the bitcoin system, only 25 bitcoins can be obtained every 10 minutes, and by 2140, the maximum number of bitcoins in circulation will reach 21 million. In other words, bitcoin system is able to achieve self-sufficiency, resist inflation through coding, and prevent others from destroying these codes

extended data:

the corresponding laws and regulations of computer mining in China:

in China, the regulations on the administration of RMB prohibit the proction and sale of token tickets. Because there is no clear judicial interpretation of the definition of token ticket, if bitcoin is included in the "token ticket", the legal prospect of bitcoin in China will face uncertainty

the notice of the Ministry of culture and the Ministry of Commerce on strengthening the management of virtual currency of online games (Wen Shi Fa [2009] No. 20) on June 4, 2009 stated that the application scope of virtual currency of online games was defined for the first time, and the distinction between the current virtual currency of online games and the virtual props in the game was made; At the same time, the notice said that the "notice" stipulates that enterprises engaged in related services must be approved before they can operate

in China, some Taobao stores also began to accept the use of bitcoin, and the number of businesses will graally increase

in October 2013, the first bitcoin quarterly, one bit, was released

on October 15, 2013, the network accelerator service of the network announced its support for bitcoin

on October 26, 2013, btcmini reported that GBL was hacked

on October 31, 2013, Lei Teng, a famous Internet lawyer, proposed the event of "filing a case to investigate the closure of GBL bitcoin trading platform as soon as possible", analyzed the "value function" and "use function" of bitcoin, and bitcoin should be governed by relevant laws

Computer mining is a bitcoin mining machine, which is a computer used to earn bitcoin

this kind of computer generally has professional mining chips, and works in the way of burning graphics card, which consumes a lot of power. It is one of the ways to get bitcoin that users download software from personal computer and then run specific algorithm to get corresponding bitcoin after communicating with remote server

5. Another term for computer mining is bitcoin mining

bitcoin Mining: using computer hardware to calculate the location of bitcoin and obtain the process is called mining

6. Using mining software to dig bitcoin,
bitcoin can change money
but the total amount of these things is fixed. They have been g for decades, and there is not much to dig, unless you are the God of technology

7. Bitcoin uses a graphics card to do an arithmetic, just like we do math problems. It has a rule of that algorithm, and then it uses a graphics card to do the arithmetic. His algorithm will be geometric superposition. So it's hard to find this bitcoin now. There is one of them. Well, you download the roaming browser. He has one called symbiotic coin. That is to say, when you usually surf the Internet, use this browser. You'll generate some virtual coins. Then it can be changed into RMB. I'm not quite clear about his ratio.

8. Sikuai technology has been founded for many years. Its founder is Feng Guodong, an investment enterprise of xiongan fund. At the same time, he is also an engineer of the whole stack, and a technology bull. Blockchain technology plays an increasingly important role in life and work.

9. No more money, just look at the allocation. In most cases, we can't find one in a month. It's not recommended to do it. It's a waste of time and electricity

10. You said that was a long time ago. High configuration computers have strong computing power. Now mining needs professional mining equipment. I feel that you don't know much about bitcoin. Let me popularize the knowledge of bitcoin. You can go to bitcoin home for more information

bitcoin is a consensus network, contributing to a new payment system and a fully digital currency. It is the first decentralized peer-to-peer payment network, which is controlled by its users without a central management organization or middleman. From the user's point of view, bitcoin is much like Internet cash. Bitcoin can also be regarded as the most outstanding three style bookkeeping system

bitcoin is proced by mining. Mining is the process of consuming computing resources to process transactions, ensuring network security and keeping everyone's information synchronized in the network. It can be understood as the data center of bitcoin. The difference lies in its completely decentralized design. Miners operate all over the world, and no one can control the network. This process is called "mining" because it is similar to gold panning, because it is also a temporary mechanism for issuing new bitcoin. However, unlike gold panning, bitcoin mining provides rewards for services that ensure the safe operation of payment networks. After the last bitcoin, mining is still necessary.
