Why do Filecoin miners lose hashrate in IPFS?
Loss of computing power will affect two aspects:
NO.1 affects the mining efficiency of miners.
Because after the computing power is lost, the computing power will basically be restored in the next day. (The time-space certificate can only be submitted at a specific time every day. If it cannot be submitted in time, the computing power will be lost)
NO.2 Miners will be fined by the authorities and deduct some pledged coins
Of course, the fine is not as serious as expected, because the fines for sector errors found on the official website are basically the profits of the wrong sector in the next two days. According to the current situation, if a sector error of 1 t occurs, the fine is basically 0.5 coins. However, by checking the data, the penalty for loss of computing power is less than the penalty for sector errors. Although all sector errors are displayed, the nature of these two sector errors is different.
Reasons for loss of computing power
1
Wallet not synced
If the wallet height is not equal to the block height, the information sent by the wallet will not be received on the chain, and this problem will also lead to loss of computing power.
2
Time and space proof submission failed
The storage structure is unreasonable. The certificate needs to be submitted once a day for about 70 tons, and part of the data needs to be collected from the 70t sector to submit the certificate. If the storage structure is unreasonable, the efficiency of data collection will be greatly reduced, which will lead to the time-consuming process of submitting the time-space certificate. If the time certificate is not submitted within the specified time, the data will not be submitted until the next day. Will lead to loss of computing power.
3
Message pool blocked
All preparations for the miners have been completed, just submit the proof to the chain, but the news on the chain is blocked. This is the official technical problem of bug-rpc. The official has not yet solved it, but the powerful miners have passed the technology The optimization of the methods can greatly reduce the probability of this problem. If small and medium-sized miners and miners do not have the strength to solve this problem, they will be punished if they encounter a message pool blockage problem.
4
The Miner machine configuration is unreasonable and the stability is not enough
The performance of the Miner machine is unstable, such as a crash during work, which can also cause loss of computing power.
In addition to looking at the packaging speed, the stability of the computing power is also very important. If the computing power is frequently dropped, the mining efficiency will be greatly reduced, and there will be fines. Therefore, in the process of mining, the efficiency of the machine and the stability of the computing power are very important!
The Star Alliance File System IPFS is a global, peer-to-peer distributed version of the file system. The IPFS project is developing steadily, and it is in the early stage of the long-term plan. It is a good time for investors to enter the market. Any party has many opportunities to participate.
