Mining principle of IPFs hard disk
IPFs is a file transfer protocol similar to http. If IPFs wants to run, it needs many computers (storage devices) in the network as nodes. In a broad sense, all participating computers can be called IPFs mining machines
in order to attract more users to join the IPFs network and contribute to the network, an encryption currency named filecoin is designed, which is distributed to the participants (nodes) as a reward according to the amount of contributed storage space and bandwidth. In a narrow sense, the computer specially designed for the purpose of obtaining the filecoin reward is called IPFs mining machine
because IPFs network needs storage space and network bandwidth, in order to obtain the highest profit ratio, IPFs mining machine usually strengthens the storage space and reces the power consumption of the whole machine. For example, more than 10 high-capacity hard disks are equipped, Gigabit or higher speed network cards are equipped, and ultra-low power architecture processors are used
of course, the mining machine provides storage services, so it can obtain revenue. The size of revenue is related to the configuration of mining machinery and the number of IPFs mining machinery
extended data
the reasons why it is not recommended to invest in IPFs are as follows:
1. IPFs technology is too early to be commercialized
IPFs now takes up a lot of bandwidth. IPNs is very slow at present, which is an obvious technical defect. It will be very difficult to realize dynamic web pages only through IPFs
There is no reasonable economic model, even if the token economy is added, it is difficult to realize the long-term natural ecological valueas a very cumbersome decentralized protocol, it is difficult for users to share files autonomously and spontaneously. In addition, even if users share files into the protocol, the files will be completely open and users cannot delete files effectively, so the security of valid files is threatened
the solution is to introce encryption and blockchain incentive mechanism. At the same time, it solves the security and storage power problems of files. However, as mentioned before, any node with workload proof under blockchain incentive mechanism will face an economic problem of continuous power on state
It is difficult to establish an ecological network with IPFs as the core under the influence of technical problems The ecological application space ofIPFs is quite limited, and the project interaction speed realized by IPFs protocol is also very slow. Of course, it has a direct relationship with the number of nodes and the distance of calling
Before you answer this question, let's review the principle of IPFs Mining: miners contribute storage space or retrieval services to get token rewards. Mining is carried out on the filecoin network, the incentive layer of IPFs, and the fil coins are g out. There are two kinds of miners in filecoin: store miners (store files); Search miners (looking for files)
there are several factors that determine the mining Revenue: hard disk space, broadband speed, purchase cost and electricity charges
Finally, there are the electricity cost and storage demand of mining. The storage demand of Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen is larger than that of the second and third tier cities in China, and there will be more incentive opportunities to build mines nearbywe missed bitcoin, Ethernet coin and Monroe coin. I hope we don't miss the filecoi bonus of the incentive layer network of IPFs in 2018
IPFs mining machine is not so much mining as charging rent. Why do you say that? If there is a user's demand for storage, the miner will rent his miner's memory as storage space, and the user will pay the miner filecoin as a reward
the working principle is simple: the user's storage demand is equivalent to didi express order, while the miner's job is to grab the order. The closer the distance, the higher the priority. Where the users are most concentrated must be Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, so the miners from Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou have a natural advantage
compared with the traditional miner, the IPFs miner like interstellar Aoyun has advantages. It doesn't need a lot of computation, it has no noise, it consumes less power, and it's almost perfect. Even renting storage space is a bit of sharing economy, and it also requires miners to have better network speed and hard disk, fair competition, and good upward effect on the development of the whole ecology.
ASIC mining is often used in bitcoin mining, which belongs to computational power proof. Hard disk mining is a kind of storage mining
bitcoin mining is only for sha256 hash value calculation, with single function. Although CPU can calculate, it is not cost-effective in terms of cost and efficiency. Therefore, mining machinery enterprises have specially designed ASIC chips for sha256 (or other algorithms) calculation
IPFs hard disk mining, interstellar Aoyun mining machine belongs to this, two mining methods:
1, storage mining, what you need to contribute is hard disk storage space, the more hard disk space, the higher your mining capacity. That is, the size of hard disk capacity and the number of hard disks
2. What you need to contribute to search mining is to provide network bandwidth. The larger the network bandwidth, the higher your mining capacity
hard disk mining does not need the strong computing power of ASIC, and ASIC does not need much hard disk capacity
IPFs is also different from IDS in detecting attacks. At present, there are many kinds of IPS systems, which use different technologies. However, generally speaking, IPS systems rely on packet detection. IPS will check the incoming packets, determine the real purpose of the packets, and then decide whether to allow the packets to enter your network< There are some important differences between IDs and IPS. If you want to buy effective security devices, if you use IPS instead of IDS, your network will usually be more secure< (2) IPS (in plane switching) technology is a panel technology introced by Hitachi in 2001, which is also commonly known as "super TFT". As we know, the liquid crystal molecules of traditional LCD display generally switch between vertical and parallel States, and MVA and PVA improve it to vertical and bidirectional tilt switching mode. The biggest difference between iPS technology and the above technology is that no matter what state the liquid crystal molecules are always parallel to the screen, only the rotation direction of the molecules is different in the power on / conventional state The rotation of PVA liquid crystal belongs to space rotation (Z-axis), while the rotation of IPS liquid crystal belongs to in-plane rotation (x-y-axis)
in order to fit this structure, IPS requires the improvement of the electrode, which is on the same side to form a planar electric field. On the one hand, the problem of viewing angle has been solved. On the other hand, IPS also has the disadvantages of slow response time and difficult contrast enhancement e to the large rotation angle of liquid crystal molecules and low panel opening rate (light transmittance).
