  2. GPU mining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPU_mining

    GPU mining is the use of Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) to "mine" proof-of-work cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin. [1] Miners receive rewards for performing computationally intensive work, such as calculating hashes, that amend and verify transactions on an open and decentralized ledger.

  3. Hashrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hashrate

    The proof-of-work distributed computing schemes, including Bitcoin, frequently use cryptographic hashes as a proof-of-work algorithm. Hashrate is a measure of the total computational power of all participating nodes expressed in units of hash calculations per second.

  4. Mining pool - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mining_pool

    In the context of cryptocurrency mining, a mining pool is the pooling of resources by miners, who share their processing power over a network, to split the reward equally, according to the amount of work they contributed to the probability of finding a block. A "share" is awarded to members of the mining pool who present a valid partial proof ...

    Ethereum enthusiasts gather for a Merge party in San Francisco in 2022. Ethereum 2.0 (Eth2) was a set of three or more upgrades, also known as "phases", meant to transition the network's consensus mechanism to proof-of-stake, and to scale the network's transaction throughput with execution sharding and an improved EVM architecture.

  9. Proof of stake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_of_stake

    For a blockchain transaction to be recognized, it must be appended to the blockchain. In the proof of stake blockchain, the appending entities are named minters or validators (in the proof of work blockchains this task is carried out by the miners); [2] in most protocols, the validators receive a reward for doing so.
