さらに、鉱山者は取引を送信しているユーザーから支払われた料金を授与されます。手数料は、鉱山者が取引をそのブロックに含めるインセンティブです。将来的には、新しいブロックコイン鉱夫の数が各ブロックで減少するにつれて、料金は鉱業収入のより重要な割合を占めることになります。 | さらに、鉱山者は取引を送信しているユーザーから支払われた料金を授与されます。手数料は、鉱山者が取引をそのブロックに含めるインセンティブです。将来的には、新しいブロックコイン鉱夫の数が各ブロックで減少するにつれて、料金は鉱業収入のより重要な割合を占めることになります。 | ||

− | ==== | + | Users have used various types of hardware over time to mine blocks. Hardware specifications and performance statistics are detailed on the [[Mining Hardware Comparison]] page. |
− | + | ==== CPU Mining ==== | |
− | ==== | + | Early Bitcoin client versions allowed users to use their CPUs to mine. The advent of GPU mining made CPU mining financially unwise as the hashrate of the network grew to such a degree that the amount of bitcoins produced by CPU mining became lower than the cost of power to operate a CPU. The option was therefore removed from the core Bitcoin client's user interface. |

− | ==== | + | ==== GPU Mining ==== |
− | + | GPU Mining is drastically faster and more efficient than CPU mining. See the main article: [[Why a GPU mines faster than a CPU]]. A variety of popular [[Mining rig|mining rigs]] have been documented. | |
− | ==== | + | ==== FPGA Mining ==== |
− | + | FPGA mining is a very efficient and fast way to mine, comparable to GPU mining and drastically outperforming CPU mining. FPGAs typically consume very small amounts of power with relatively high hash ratings, making them more viable and efficient than GPU mining. See [[Mining Hardware Comparison]] for FPGA hardware specifications and statistics. | |
− | ==== | + | ==== ASIC Mining ==== |
− | [[ | + | An application-specific integrated circuit, or ''ASIC'', is a microchip designed and manufactured for a very specific purpose. ASICs designed for Bitcoin mining were first released in 2013. For the amount of power they consume, they are vastly faster than all previous technologies and already have made GPU mining financially. |

− | === | + | [[:Category:Mining_contractors|Mining contractors]] provide mining services with performance specified by contract, often referred to as a "Mining Contract." They may, for example, rent out a specific level of mining capacity for a set price at a specific duration. |

+ | === Pools === | ||
+ | As more and more miners competed for the limited supply of blocks, individuals found that they were working for months without finding a block and receiving any reward for their mining efforts. This made mining something of a gamble. To address the variance in their income miners started organizing themselves into [[Pooled mining|pools]] so that they could share rewards more evenly. See [[Pooled mining]] and [[Comparison of mining pools]]. | ||

+ | === History === | ||
+ | Bitcoin's public ledger (the "block chain") was started on January 3rd, 2009 at 18:15 UTC presumably by [[Satoshi Nakamoto]]. The first block is known as the [[genesis block]]. The first transaction recorded in the first block was a single transaction paying the reward of 50 new bitcoins to its creator. | ||
