This image is a humorous explanation of how Bitcoin mining works. On the left, a character labeled “Bitcoin Nodes” acts like a genie and says: “I’m thinking of a number between 1 and 10^22. If you guess the number, then you win 3.125 BTC.” On the right, a miner surrounded by mining machines replies: “Sounds good.” 👉 The cartoon simplifies Bitcoin mining: it’s basically a guessing game where miners try billions of combinations to find the right answer. If they succeed, they get rewarded with Bitcoin (currently 3.125 BTC per block).
