Title: Bitcoin block
Post by: tharey on October 15, 2016, 08:08:44 PM
Hi bitcoin miners,
What are the parameters of the lucky number for finding a new block? Do you know it? I know, it is complicated question, but i just want to know that.
I was trying to find it on the internet, but i was not able to find anything.
Thanks for your comments,
Tharey.

I had never seen that before. That is pretty cool, maybe I'll start mining with pencil and paper.
Actually I'll step t up a notch and build an excel spreadsheet.  8)

I have read about this mining with paper and pencil before also and sound quite interesting however we can't mine with the speed of our hands or even with excel spreadsheets for sure. This may give theoretical overview of how bitcoin mining works.

Yes, I realize that it is extremely impractical and would actually be counterproductive. It was meant as a joke.  :D
