Contract power plant mining
if you want to talk about what is the investment proct with the highest return on investment, it must be bitcoin in recent years. The price of bitcoin has doubled dozens of times, which makes many people excited and devote themselves to mining. But as we all know, bitcoin mining is not simple. It requires a large number of computers with high configuration to work continuously, and the electricity consumption can also be imagined. Recently, Inner Mongolia asked to close all virtual currency mining projects before the end of April, and prohibited new virtual currency mining projects. Recently, the Inner Mongolia development and Reform Commission issued "several safeguard measures to ensure the completion of the" fourteenth five year plan "energy consumption double control target tasks (Draft)", which clearly proposed to comprehensively clean up and shut down the virtual currency mining projects, and withdraw them by the end of April 2021
25000 mining troops in Sichuan: a flood cost hundreds of millions, most afraid of power failure and loneliness
these computing power are scattered along the Da River, a tributary of the Minjiang River. They inlge in the night of Dalate Banner in Ordos, and sleep soundly in a small city in Yili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture of Xinjiang
today, bitcoin's total network computing power has reached about 30 billion hash collisions per second, equivalent to about 600 tianhe-2 supercomputers, and it is still growing at a high speed. " Wu Jihan, the founder of bitcontinent, wrote in the beauty of computing power
he preached a set of infinitely beautiful "computational aesthetics", but behind the aesthetics is the cruel computational world and interests. Mining is moving towards instrialization step by step and becoming a game of capital
at this time, decentralized mining machines and pools began to appear. They called themselves revolutionaries and wanted to change the extremely monopolized bitcoin world
"cloud computing power mining" is one of them
their way of playing is to establish a number of distributed mines and provide computing power leasing services with tens of thousands of real mining machines
"the current computing power is too concentrated, and some decentralized play methods are difficult to change the current pattern and ecology." Li Ke said
but the essence of blockchain is decentralization. The miners still have the belief that eventually the mining instry will be broken by the decentralized mining pool
this may be the only belief that keeps them going
how long will it take
"5-10 years, slowly nibbling at the giant's territory." Li Ke said
but will giants wait for the revolution? Will they fight back
the battle of computing power and the spark of revolution have just been ignited

if bitcoin is not put into actual use, it may be a waste of resources according to media reports, a research institute report shows that bitcoin consumes a lot of power resources every year. If we consider the power consumption of bitcoin mining in the latest year as a country, the annual power consumption of bitcoin has exceeded that of the Netherlands and the United Arab Emirates. If all the British hot water pots are powered on, it can last 27 years. According to the introction of professionals, bitcoin needs continuous computer calculation to obtain new blocks, and because the total amount of bitcoin is fixed, it needs more power calculation in the future to win bitcoin, and this process is called mining
