@MrGoat So when they mine for a bit it a number a specific number have I got that right?So What was the first bit number?Why don’t they just have a formula to the next one?I don’t get the mining part ?
@Oldguyaz The result of bitcoin mining is twofold. First, when computers solve these complex math problems on the bitcoin network, they produce new bitcoin (not unlike when a mining operation extracts gold from the ground). And second, by solving computational math problems, bitcoin miners make the bitcoin payment network trustworthy and secure by verifying its transaction information.
@Oldguyaz crypto is hard to explain, i would just read about it and how it works, coinbase actually explains some of the coins pretty well along with rewarding you with some free coins.
