What is mining?
Answer / Gaurav Singh
Mining in blockchain refers to the process of adding transaction records to a public distributed ledger called the blockchain. Miners use powerful computers to solve complex mathematical problems, which are essentially guessing a number that when hashed results in a certain number of zeroes. This process is necessary to validate transactions and add them to the blockchain.
