How does Cryptocurrency mining work?
Step 1: The first step of mining a block is to hash each transaction taken from the memory pool individually.
Step 2: The outputs are then sorted into pairs and hashed again and the process is repeated until “top of the tree” is reached.
Step 3: After every transaction is hashed, the hashes are then organized into something called a Merkle Tree or a hash tree, which is formed by organizing the various transaction hashes into pairs and then hashing them.
Step 4: The mining method allows miners to keep hazing the block header over and over again, iterating through the nonce until one finally produces a correct block hash in the network miner.
Step 5: Upon finding a correct hash, the founder node will transmit the block to the network.
Step 6:All other nodes can search for validity of the hash and if so, add the block to their blockchain copy and move on to mining the next block.
