How to mine in 2009
mining chip has gone from CPU mining to GPU mining to FPGA mining, and now it has entered the era of ASIC mining. However, the way of mining has also experienced from one or two mining machines to small mining machine workshops, and now it has entered the era of large-scale mining
(1) mining mode: from one miner to large-scale mine
if you start to try mining, you need to prepare a miner, a computer with internet connection, an AUC, a raspberry pie, power supply and various connecting cables. The connection order of various devices is network cable - & gt; Raspberry pie - & gt; Microusb cable - & gt; AUC-> 4Pin cable - & gt; Mining machine and power supply
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
Mining is the use of bitcoin mining machine, which is used to earn bitcoin
one of the ways to get bitcoin is that users download software from personal computer and then run specific algorithm to get corresponding bitcoin after communicating with remote server
bitcoin is a kind of virtual currency. Bitcoin mining system is the process of carrying out mathematical operation for bitcoin network through computer hardware. Miners who provide services can get a reward, because the network reward is calculated according to the tasks completed by miners, so the competition for mining is very fierce
mining is actually a competition of performance and equipment. The mining machine composed of many graphics cards, even if it's only hd6770, can surpass the single graphics card of most users
and this is not the most terrible. Some mining machines are made up of more such graphics card arrays. When dozens or even hundreds of graphics cards come together, the graphics card itself costs money. Considering the hardware price and other costs, there is a considerable expenditure in mining
bitcoin mining process:
1. To find the ore pool
to start mining, there must be a ore pool with convenient operation and stable output. Its function is to subdivide the data packets for each terminal, and pay the corresponding amount of bitcoin according to the proportion of the data packets calculated by the terminal through precise algorithm
2. Download bitcoin miner (software)
in fact, there are many kinds of this miner, you can go to the official website to download
3. Setting mining software is a green software. After installation, we can set the language first to facilitate further setting. Next, you need to set the server, user name, password, equipment and so on. Generally, the server chooses a better network from BTC guide series, and the user name and password are set by ourselves before
4, bitcoin mining start
when we confirm that all settings are correct, click the "start mining" button to start bitcoin mining, and then the graphics card will soon enter the full speed running state, the temperature and fan speed will increase, you can monitor the state through gpu-z or graphics card driver
1. First of all, you need to prepare a pickaxe, which can be sold in beech's weapons store. It can be equipped at level 11
now it's very difficult to download the program from the official website and do it yourself, but it may take several years. The second way is to buy it. Now it's about 18 dollars, less than 100 yuan. Mt.gox, bitcoin's largest trading website. On the official website of bitcoin, there is a paper by Nakamoto Tsung, which details the technical principles of bitcoin. In short, bitcoin is based on a set of cipher codes and generated by complex algorithms; Anyone can download and run bitcoin software to participate in the proction of bitcoin; Bitcoin uses electronic signature to realize circulation, and checks repeated consumption through P2P network
by 2140, the total number of bitcoins was 21 million. I suggest you buy it
if you still don't understand, it's suggested to search in the search engine: laoan, or Duan Hongbin, who has many blogs and is easy to find, and also has QQ. Add friends and let him give you< In 2009, a mysterious hacker named Satoshi nakomoto first proposed the concept of bitcoin, and described a method of using computer networks to create an unmanaged "secret currency". Unlike other virtual currencies, bitcoin is not issued by a company or a central bank, nor linked to any real currency, but can be used to buy goods and services in the real world. In essence, it can be seen as a small string of encrypted code quickly transmitted and stored in the electronic wallet on the Internet
just as the P2P networks such as Napster and Skype have made the record instry and telephone instry in chaos, bitcoin, which challenges the modern monetary and financial science, is also based on P2P, which is the same as the BT download technology we commonly use. The advantage of P2P is to ensure that no institution can manipulate the value of bitcoin or increase the supply to create inflation. In a huge P2P network, bitcoin has a special algorithm, which proces about 300 bitcoins per hour. The output is automatically adjusted by the network. Because you can't control most of the network nodes, you can't modify the algorithm of each user to speed up the money proction
figuratively speaking, bitcoin is "mined" by computers all over the world. If you want to get bitcoin, you just need to install mining software, and your computer will start to do a lot of calculations, which is mining
no matter which computer is used to mine, it is easy to get 50 bitcoins in the early days of bitcoin. As early as January this year, 50 bitcoin was not worth $15, but on June 9, a bitcoin was worth as much as $29.55. If you trade them, you can get back $1500 of real gold and silver. Now, however, mining requires high-performance computers, and some developers involved say that it is estimated that an ordinary laptop will work for five years to get a bitcoin.
now in bitoffer, you can buy a bitcoin equity, that is, an option, for as little as $5.
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
CPU mining → GPU mining → professional miner mining → mine pool mining
on January 3, 2009, the founder of bitcoin, Nakamoto Tsung, g up the first batch of bitcoin with computer CPU
with the recognition of bitcoin, more and more people are mining, the computing power of the whole network is rising, and the difficulty of mining is graally rising
the first graphics card mining software was released on September 18, 2010. A graphics card is equivalent to dozens of CPUs, and the mining capacity has been significantly improved
later, someone invented a professional mining equipment based on mining chip, namely mining machine. At present, the instry-leading ant miner is equipped with nearly 200 bm1387 chips, which is equivalent to the computing power of more than 30000 GPUs
as more mining machines are added to mining, it is difficult for a single mining machine to dig bitcoin. As a result, the miners concentrated their mining machines and formed mines and pools.
