Bitcoin mining machines, primarily ASIC miners, work by solving complex cryptographic puzzles to validate and secure transactions on the Bitcoin network. They use immense computational power to compete for the right to add a new block to the blockchain. Miners gather unconfirmed transactions, hash them repeatedly with different nonce values, and try to find a valid hash that meets network difficulty requirements. The first miner to solve the puzzle is rewarded with newly minted Bitcoins and transaction fees. This process, called Proof of Work, ensures the security and decentralization of the Bitcoin network.
