What is Bitcoin?
Bitcoins are being created by a community of people that anyone can join.
In theory, there is no authority (financial institution) which can tinker with monetary
policy and in that sense devalue or revalue Bitcoin currency.
2. It’s anonymus and transparent
Bitcoins are stored in wallet with digital credentials for your bitcoin holdings and allows you to
access them.
Wallet uses public-key cryptography, in which two keys, one public and one private are
generated. Public key can be thought of as an account number or name and the private key,
ownership credentials.
Bitcoin is transferred to the next owner when the next owner gives a public key and previous
owner uses his private key to publish a record into system announcing that the ownership has
changed to the new public key.
Bitcoin protocol stores details of every single transaction that occurred in the network in huge
version of general ledger (Block chain).
3. Negligible fees and irreversible process
Bitcoin is not the first private money, not the first digital currency, and not first
currency based on cryptography, but it has been the first to rely on peer to peer
network decentralization to avoid double spending.
They are created each time a user discovers new block (finds hash value).
Software is creating new units until it reaches amount of 21 million unites (currency with
Finite Supply).
