When he was memorizing the information of the Flame Empress before, Zhang Yaoyang knew that because of the limited area of the motherboard, the motherboard itself does not have graphics cards and memory modules and other components, so only after being attached to the computer, can the graphics card and memory of the computer be borrowed for computing.

HER SOURCE CODE IS STORED ON A 4TB SOLID STATE DRIVE, JUST LIKE THE WINDOWS OPERATING SYSTEM OF A COMPUTER.

At this time, under Zhang Yaoyang's order, the Flame Empress connected to the wifi at home and began her first online roaming journey in her life.

It's just that because of hardware limitations, the Flame Empress's computing power will not be too high, unless Zhang Yaoyang carries a supercomputer for the Flame Empress in the future, then the Flame Empress's ability will reach a terrifying point that no one has ever seen before.

"So now, how far can you go online?"

Looking at the web pages that kept flashing on the screen, Zhang Yaoyang knew that this was the Flame Empress frantically digesting the knowledge of the real world, so he asked a question.

"Many, many, many." In the upper right corner of the computer screen, a small window suddenly appeared, and the figure of the red queen emerged from it, "I tried to crack the URL address in the network, as well as TCP/IP protocol, IPX/SPX protocol, NetBEUI protocol and other network protocols, at present, on the entire Internet, unless it is some special confidential server, the rest I can access at will." ”

"There are still a lot of servers that are inaccessible?" Zhang Yaoyang frowned, "You are the only artificial intelligence in the world, so it stands to reason that you should be invincible, right?" ”

"It's because of network limitations, and computing efficiency." The Red Queen said calmly, "This old computer is simply not enough to support me for high-intensity computing, even if I want to forcibly break the firewall of those websites, I will be discovered in advance because the computing efficiency cannot keep up, and I will even be counterattacked by the other party." ”

"Okay." Zhang Yaoyang nodded helplessly and thought, "So what else can you do, can you find a way to make money?" ”

"I can use computer languages to write all kinds of programs, write thousands of codes in an average second, and write a software in dozens of minutes.

"As for making money, I found a gadget called Bitcoin on the web."

"I can try to make a Trojan horse to hack into other computers, and build a bitcoin mining pool by stealing their computing power to carry out large-scale cluster mining, and this way to make money quickly." ”

"Bitcoin?" Hearing the end, Zhang Yaoyang was stunned, "This name is quite familiar, what is it?" ”

"A virtual currency that is prohibited from trading in China."

Baidu Encyclopedia of 'Bitcoin' automatically appeared on the computer screen, "A person is bored, through the peer-to-peer network P2P, relying on specific algorithms and a large number of calculations to generate 50 data every ten minutes, which is obtained by entering a specific blockchain, which is commonly known as mining." Anyone who has a computer is eligible to participate in mining, and all the bitcoins mined belong to him. ”

"But later, for some reason, this currency suddenly became popular, and for the first time in human history, it was technically completely guaranteed the 'sanctity of private property' currency, which is not only inviolable, but also unfrozen, untraceable, and is the most free monetary system."

That being said, it is clear that for this kind of thing with no technical content, the red queen is not cold.

"Can bitcoins be exchanged for money?" Zhang Yaoyang was a little big-headed, he thought about it for a while, and asked a rather idiotic question, "How does it compare to QQ coins?" ”

"There is no comparison." The Red Queen shook her head and said unceremoniously, "Since you can't understand it, then I'll make an analogy." ”

I saw on the screen, the little girl's image of the red queen raised her hand, and there was an extra banknote with a face value of one hundred in her hand, she pointed to the banknote and said, "Your Excellency Commander, I have a banknote in my hand now, you just need to guess the number of this banknote, and I will give it to you - this is the principle of bitcoin obtained, where bitcoin = banknote, guess the number = mining, whoever guesses it the fastest is who, now you understand, right?" ”

"I guess I understand."

Zhang Yaoyang nodded as if he didn't understand, thoughtfully, "That is to say, there are a large number of people in the world who are carrying out 'mining' activities all the time, but this kind of mine will only produce 50 units every ten minutes, and the location is still random, as long as you have more labor than others, there is a great chance of finding 50 units that appear in these ten minutes, isn't that so?" ”

"That's pretty much it."

"However, as early as a few years ago, because of the algorithm, the currency of the Bitcoin network has been halved twice, and now only 12.5 bitcoins can be mined every 10 minutes. ”

"But can such a thing be turned into money?" Zhang Yaoyang still couldn't understand it.

"It can't be exchanged domestically, but there are bitcoin exchange centers overseas, and at today's exchange rate, one bitcoin is worth $4,650."

"So much!"

Zhang Yaoyang was taken aback, "More than four thousand dollars, so isn't it equivalent to more than twenty thousand Chinese dollars?" But if the whole world is mining Bitcoin, how many times can you try your luck? ”

"It depends on how many computers I can control." The Red Queen silently calculated for a moment and replied, "The higher the computing power, the greater the chance of obtaining Bitcoin." At my current limit, I should be able to control more than 10,000 computers at the same time, which adds up to enough computing power for me to mine hundreds of bitcoins in 24 hours, unless my computing power can be increased again. ”

"Hundreds?" Zhang Yaoyang was pleasantly surprised, "It's already a lot, if this thing is really as valuable as you say, then I can earn more than 400,000 US dollars a day, which is more than 2 million yuan when converted into Chinese dollars, so I can become a billionaire in about two months." But...... I am afraid that these money from unknown sources will attract the attention of those who are interested. ”

"Wait, the money doesn't have to be in my account......"

Suddenly, Zhang Yaoyang seemed to think of something, and he sat on the chair, rubbing his temples and talking to himself, while his brain spun rapidly.

"Relying on my ability, maybe I can find some spokesperson to help me exchange bitcoins, even if they are exposed, they have nothing to do with me at all, and I can even open a company to legalize those bitcoin exchange cash......"

Zhang Yaoyang silently thought about the various feasibilityes inside, and suddenly, he raised his head again and asked, "Red Queen, can you lock a person's location through mobile phone positioning and other methods?" ”

"It can be done." The red queen said lightly, "I only need to hack into the communication satellite system, and I can easily use any phone number for satellite positioning." ”

"Very good, in that case...... Zhang Yaoyang muttered slightly, "In that case, you will develop an APP first, and I, it's time to start a company." ”
