Bitcoin mining is the process of verifying and adding new transactions to the Bitcoin blockchain. This computational process involves solving complex mathematical problems to secure the network and, in return, miners are rewarded with newly created bitcoins and transaction fees. The difficulty of these problems adjusts to maintain a consistent block creation time, ensuring the network’s stability and predictable issuance of new currency.
