Graphics card mining calculation

mining, in fact, is a problem-solving process. First, we work out a formula with many answers, and then the dealer releases a random answer every other period of time. An answer is the prototype of a virtual coin. We can see who can calculate the answer at this time, and then this person or these people can divide the virtual coin. When the result comes out, we can find the answer, virtual currency is attached with information such as the computer information and problem-solving time of the tester, so that the virtual currency can be "materialized", that is, it has traceability and uniqueness attributes. At this time, the virtual currency is officially g out

using the graphics card is because the computing method of the graphics card is different from that of the CPU. The CPU focuses on logic computing. The graphics card is simple computing, and mining (that is, solving problems) just needs simple computing power. Therefore, mining with the graphics card

bitcoin miner is the equipment for mining bitcoin. The mining equipment can be ordinary computer or USB miner, It can also be a professional ASIC miner

ASIC mining machine

and join the bitcoin miners organization to dig bitcoin, that is, to join a mining pool for mining

1. CPU is mainly optimized for serial instructions, while GPU is optimized for large-scale parallel computing

3. GPU often has a larger bandwidth of memory, that is, the so-called video memory, so it will also have good performance in high throughput applications

Through a specific program and algorithm, using the computer graphics card calculation rate, a large number of calculations are carried out in the selected mine pool to generate data packets

Graphics cards can't dig out bitcoin right now. Your calculation power is the calculation power of Ethereum. The calculation method is also wrong

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 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

as a middle-aged miner for 13 years, let's talk about the feeling of mining before.

I bought four mining machines in the past. Bitcoin uses CPU and I'm not familiar with it, so I use the form of buying graphics card to dig Wright's coin.

the first one is a simple double card mining machine, not a mining machine strictly speaking, but a double 7950 machine, At that time, I thought about digging for a while. If I didn't make money, I could still play games by myself. As a result, I found that the efficiency was really not high. Later, I used to dig some dog money and play with it.

the second one was the popular 6-card miner in those years. At that time, there was a powerful motherboard, which could run for 6 yuan by connecting with the PCI adapter and changing the BIOS. At that time, I could dig a lot of Wright's money every day with this machine, It's a pity that there are too many people digging, so it took more than 80 days to dig the coins. The third and the fourth are professional mining machines. At that time, the new chips were used to mass proce mining machines. Although they were expensive, the power consumption decreased a lot. It took about a year to dig, In the end, he retired, g up other counterfeit coins for a while, and then sold them.

generally speaking, many websites have no credibility at all in the past few days. They actually know what the concept of excessive increase in computing power is after digging up the money.

when ZF suppressed it, the assets immediately shrank by nearly 70%, but they still didn't sell because of their faith, On the contrary, after selling the miner, I bought some coins and put them in my hand. When I bought 100, I g them and only bought 15. Hey, the miner was sealed and put under the bed. After waiting for three years, I found that it rose again. This year, when bitcoin rose to 2W, I sold some Leyte coins and paid the down payment. Almost 300 of them were sold. Now it seems that the highest is 380, Ha ha

now I still have some money in my hand, and I plan to hold it for a long time, but I won't dig any more. However, I still have a lot of orders with our first-class suppliers. In the past two months, I sold nearly 150 cards, and the more I sold, the more I sold. Some cards are about to double, which is even crazier than that in 2013, The existence of e-money has its own value in the end, but it does not deny that there are so many speculators who come in to fight. There are indeed those who pursue the price. After the boom, there will be a wave of leeks cutting. In the final analysis, bitcoin is just an investment. Everyone feels different about the risk. The strength of big funds is still strong, and it is inevitable for retail investors to be cut, But it's better than A-share at least.

mining is not a good thing. The big miners are in the remote areas with low electricity charges, many mining machines and low cost. Most people dig at home, and that's just a little fuss.

finally, it's not a good thing to grow too fast. Those who are confident can come in and show their operation. If they don't have much ability, don't come in, Only by routine

It depends on the computing power of GPU and CPU instead of the computing speed. Although there is no big difference, because the computing principle of graphics card is different from CPU, and mining needs distributed computing. In this kind of computing, graphics card GPU is better than CPU
