Hi guys, I have a noob question. Hypothetical assuming a 60Gh/s miner...
According to my calculations, running a 60Gh/s miner will take about 20 to 21 days to generate one bitcoin at current difficulty. I know that a bitcoin can be split up into smaller denominations, but if I stop mining before I generate a full bitcoin do I have anything of value? I mean if I run a 60Gh/s miner for 10 days will I have half a bitcoin? If so can I trade it on an exchange or do exchanges need full coins?
If mining a partial coin is possible, what is the smallest fraction of a bitcoin that can be mined?
