When you mine Bitcoins, you are securing the network by confirming transaction. Such process is made by an ASIC miner (look it on ebay) and depending on your hashrate (KH/s, MH/s, GH/s, TH/s), network difficulty, and electricity costs, that will determine what you will earn. For more info, i'd suggest you look into these sites: http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/how-to/internet/how-mine-bitcoins-generate-money-bitcoin-mining-3515249/ http://www.coindesk.com/information/how-bitcoin-mining-works/Hope this helps. Somebody correct this, if I'm wrong.

You've mostly gotten it right. Mining is a computational process that secures the network, with coins being minted to act as a reward for securing the network. Specialized mining devices called ASICs are the only way to mine now (aside from as an academic curiosity, for different types of coins that don't have ASICs yet, and on private testing nets), and even they have very slim profit margins (due to cost of electricity and the miners themselves).

it's like digging gold, but you do it with specific machine called asic(in the past was possible with gpu) and with mathematical process they try to find the block before the other if in solo
or they partecipate together to find the block and divide it based on their hashpower

When transactions are first broadcast, they stays in the mempool till a miner decides to include them into a block. Mining is basically described as a process to add transactions into the blockchain and helps in the distribution of the coins to ensure that the market cap is unchanged. Miners first have to assemble transactions, usually from highest fee/kb to lowest fee/kb and the coinbase transaction in an order to calculate the merkle root. Rest of the block header is then populated with other data and the miner begins to hash the block. It hashes the block repeatedly with nonce incremement after each try till the hash is below the target. The miner then broadcast it to the network. Other miners will then calculate another set of merkle root and change the block header.
This is an effective way of preventing double spending with majority of honest miners.
Mining started from the CPU that you find in your computer to high end GPUs in the gaming rigs. Nowadays, they are no longer profitable for Bitcoin and ASICs are used for mining them. Even so, small time home miners aren't profiting from these. People are using big warehouse populated with ASICs to generate profits.

Actually mining was a good thing for everyone years ago. Today you will not earn much mining Bitcoins if you have only a simple computer. Try to join a mining pool otherwise try to focus on mining altcoins.

Mining is done with an ASIC, a single computer can't do anything. Mining pool doesn't change anything. Alt coins are highly competitive as most Bitcoin miners gave up on Bitcoin and some turned it into an alt coin rig. If you're mining on a lesser known coin, it would still be risky.

Mining is just popular name for "Transaction processing". IMO it's linked to reward earned for each block and we will stop using this name after all bitcoins will be mined-out ... when the only reward for miners will be tx fee.

True. Mining is actually a time-consuming process. But you can definitely start mining if you can afford to invest the time required and bear the electricity charges as securing networks does take a long time. All the best with it if you are ready for it.

You calculate hash (cryptographic function) that is confirmation of transactions in next block. Simple as that, you need more details, read everything about mining out there ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) i recommend bitcoin documentaries also.

As my knowledge BTC mining is a way to get Bitcoin by using mining equipment and we join in a Pool to start our mining, this is the section where you can learn about Bitcoin mining further https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=14.0, you should calculate about the cost and electricity cost.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1580557.0This OP asked the same question, and now you did. What's the difference between What is mining v/s What is btc mining? Mining had been fun before, but it's a serious thing nowadays as the prices have gone crazy and generating Bitcoins through small computers is impossible, and you can only mine if you are stuffed with a lot of money and willing to put it into the required hardware that is needed to do this thing.

a straight forward answer will be.. btc mining is a way of earning bitcoins just by using your computer.. however it depends on the specs of your computer.. the faster it is.. the better the chance that you will have bitcoins.. cause the computer it self will process or find a problem that it will solve.. and if it did in a right time.. you will have a reward which is bitcoins ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) ..

For the remainder of BTC surplus, miners harvest nodes to acquire coins... After the 21,000,000 are mined additional amounts come from transactions over the entire Bitcoin network.
This is done by mega computers with heavy GPU's as well as custom computers to amass virtual wealth.
