Mining machine burning
Every 100 S4 bitcoin mining machines consume 900W of electricity per hour
bitcoin mining machine is a kind of 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
the popular digital currencies in 2013 include bitcoin, Leyte coin, zeta coin, pennies (Internet), invisible gold bar, red coin, pole coin, barbecue coin and prime currency. At present, hundreds of digital currencies are issued all over the world
the price of bitcoin mining machine ranges from two or three hundred yuan to 200000 yuan. From 2011 to 2013, high configuration bitcoin & quot; Mining machine & quot; From 10000 yuan to 300000 yuan, but the performance is much better than before. According to instry insiders, the old machine can only dig 1 bitcoin in 100 days, but now (2013) machine can dig 3.5 bitcoins in 100 days
according to the miner information published by the domestic assembly team, a miner with the lowest configuration at the price of 3000 yuan can be returned in more than 30 days according to the bitcoin mining speed. The machine with mining speed of 10G / s can dig about 0.03 bitcoins 24 hours a day, while the machine with mining speed of 13g / s can dig about 0.035 bitcoins 24 hours a day according to the computing power and difficulty of the whole network in 2013.
Taking t2t-30t as an example, the calculation force of t2t-30t is 30t, and the power consumption is 2200W, that is, 2.2kW. The power consumption of a single miner in 24-hour operation is 2.2kW * 24 = 52.8kwh, and the electricity charge is once calculated as 0.56rmb, the daily power consumption cost of a single miner is 52.8kw * 0.56 = 29.57rmb
to "mine" with bitcoin mining machine, if the graphics card is fully loaded for a long time, the power consumption will be quite high, and the electricity bill will be higher and higher. There are many professional mines at home and abroad 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 some people in a residential area in Yunnan carried out crazy mining, which led to a large area trip of the residential area, and the transformer was burned
extended data
mining principle of bitcoin mining machine:
bitcoin mining and node software mainly initiates zero knowledge proof and verification transactions through point-to-point network, digital signature and interactive proof system. Each network node carries out 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 confirmation. The confirmed transactions will be packaged into data blocks, and the data blocks will form a continuous data block chain
every node of bitcoin 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 sha256 hash value of the previous data block. The mining node keeps trying again and again until the random adjustment number it finds makes the hash value lower than a specific target
To be a miner is to proce bitcoin with one's own computer. In the early client, there was the option of mining, but it has been cancelled. The reason is very simple. With more and more people participating in mining, it may take a few years for one to dig for 50 coins. Therefore, miners generally form a miner's guild to dig together. Specific mining methods, you can go online search. This method is already very unrealistic< br />
The red envelope function has been frozen by Tencent
1. CPU is mainly optimized for serial instructions, while GPU is optimized for massively parallel operations
2. Modern multi-core CPU aims at instruction set parallelism (ILP) and task parallelism (TLP), while GPU is data parallelism (DLP)
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
the CPU needs strong generality to deal with various data types, and at the same time, it also needs logical judgment, and it will introce a lot of branch jump and interrupt processing. All these make the internal structure of CPU extremely complex. GPU is faced with highly unified, interdependent large-scale data and pure computing environment without interruption. GPU uses a large number of computing units and ultra long pipeline, but it only has very simple control logic and saves cache. The CPU not only occupies a lot of space by cache, but also has complex control logic and many optimization circuits. So unlike CPU, GPU is good at large-scale concurrent computing, which is suitable for password cracking
in short, CPU is a general-purpose operation. In short, it means brainless calculation and violent calculation. Whether it's 100 children sharing apples or simulating the earth, it can be decomposed into the most basic calculation of 1 + 1 = 2. GPU is specially designed to deal with high-order mathematical algorithms, such as calculating the relative positions of light source, object, viewpoint and shadow, which requires trigonometric functions to be piled up. The bitcoin digger uses SHA-256, a secure hash function invented by the US National Security Agency, which is generally used for password encryption and decryption. This algorithm can perform a large number of 32-bit integer right-rotate operations, which is very suitable for GPU which is good at large-scale concurrent computing and password cracking.
