Bitcoin Mining Guide For Beginners

We talked about cryptocurrency virtual currency. Bitcoin is designed to be generated by hardware & software. Free money is not so easy. Here is Bitcoin Mining Guide For Beginners. Normally we “buy” Bitcoin but Bitcoin is highly secure for transaction as Governmental spyware fails to track. Basic reason to generate, use Bitcoin sarcastically is not for making free money but for higher privacy. Average PC with graphics processor is useless for bitcoin mining. These days custom hardware or specialised hosting service is used. Capability is measured by BTC earned per month.

A knowledge of Encryption and Decryption, SHA, working knowledge with normal server crypt works like generating SSL certs is expected.

Mining means a record-keeping service. Bitcoin Miners keep the blockchain consistent, complete, and unalterable by repeatedly verifying and collecting newly broadcast transactions into a new group of transactions called a block which contains a cryptographic hash of the previous block using SHA-256 hashing algorithm linking it to the previous block giving the blockchain its name. An acceptable block by the rest of the network, must contain proof-of-work which requires miners to find a nonce. This proof is extremely time-consuming to generate, as for a secure cryptographic hash. Only successful miner finding a new block is rewarded with newly created bitcoins and transaction fees.

There is beautiful wiki :

If 0.5 BTC earned per month by a system, which is at the time of writing is 1273 USD. Bitcoin conversion rate actually is misleading. You awarded me 0.5 BTC for a work, of course I will use for other work.

Challenges of earning Bitcoins are :

1. Hash Rate is the mathematical problem the miner’s computer needs to solve. More miners join the Bitcoin network, the higher the network Hash Rate will be! Hash Rate also refer to mining performance. Performance is measured in Mega hash per second (MH/s), Giga hash per second (GH/s ) and so on.
2. The number of Bitcoins generated per block starts at 50 and is halved every 210,000 blocks (about four years). The current number of Bitcoins awarded per block is 25. Sooner the reward will be downgraded to 12.5 Bitcoins.
3. Bitcoin network is designed to produce a constant amount of Bitcoins every 10 minutes, more miners will join, the harder it will get to actually mine Bitcoins.
4. Bitcoin mining consumes a huge electricity.
5. In order to mine you have to join a mining pool. Mining pools deduct some sort of a fee in order to maintain its operations.
6. After 6 years from now difficulty will be increased.
