Crypto:

Crypto mining is a term that you might have encountered in recent times. It is supposedly responsible for soaring graphic chipsets (GPU) prices, but helps drives cryptocurrency profits as well. Oh, and it is also the reason for laptops getting seriously damaged all across the globe. But what exactly is crypto mining and how does it work? Most importantly, why is mining so important right now? We take an in-depth look at crypto mining.

Cryptocurrency mining, or crypto mining for short, may sound like it’s a procedure where new cryptocurrency coins are made. But it is not that straightforward. First let’s have a quick look at how cryptocurrency transactions work.

Cryptocurrency is completely digital with no records of possession and transactions in the physical world. It is also not centrally controlled or issued like say the currency of a nation such as the Rupee or the US dollar. There is no physical book to keep track of who owns how much or details of transactions among crypto owners and/or crypto-accepting businesses. Instead, cryptocurrency transactions are maintained via a blockchain network and added to digital ledgers.

These digital ledgers need to be maintained to keep track of the various cryptocurrency transactions taking place around the world. These global ledgers simultaneously update crypto transactions for respective cryptocurrencies on millions of computers powerful enough for the task. The idea is that because the network is decentralised, no one person or entity can control it and therefore modify it to their advantage. These millions of computers that keep track of these transactions are what you’d call crypto mining systems or rigs.
