Show HN: Bitcoin Target: A weekend project to understand targets and difficulty
- simonebrunozzi 13y agoCan you explain what happens on the site, with more details? First impression is that you're using my compute power (browser) to find the next bitcoin.
- Two9A 13y agoThere's no mining happening in the browser. My inspiration was CSI's "visual aids", where a computer will look like it's grinding through a database but not actually be doing any work. So the red "random" hashes are exactly that: random numbers. The site just listens out for broadcasts on the Bitcoin network, and displays them when they show up.
