Review on Bitcoin by Baylee Francis
Bitcoin
With no government backing, Bitcoin has value only so long as enough people agree to use it.
This kind of stuff is catnip to the mainstream press, which otherwise doesn't know much or care much about Bitcoin.
All Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency transactions are publicly listed in the blockchain.
The blockchain tracks only pseudonymous Bitcoin addresses, not users' real names or other identifying details.
Bitcoin was the first widely used cryptocurrency, but few people know it is not the only one.
No matter what you call it, BitCoin, dollar, pound or peso, it's all gone virtual and it's all been stolen before.
The computing power of the network that runs Bitcoin doubled in October, pushing out all but the most dedicated miners.
The issuance regime of Bitcoin allocates new coins to the miners.
But even after his alleged identification, there are still more questions than answers about the enigmatic creator of Bitcoin.
Bitcoin is a digital cash that gives you the possibility of sending money all over the world, instantly and without a fee.
For ease of discussion, I'll use Bitcoin to include all similar cryptocurrenices.
A Bitcoin owner can transfer Bitcoins to others to pay for goods or services.
Of course, there's no tangible way to value a bitcoin aside from what someone else believes it is worth.
In Africa, however, Bitcoin has seen none of the issues the cryptocurrency experienced globally.
For example, if bitcoin becomes successful, the way anarchists and hackers like it, it will extremely hard to centralize money ever again.
As long as the risk is unregulated, it seems to be a bull market for Bitcoin.
Pros
- The most extreme number that can ever be mine is settled, which suggests it has the potential to grow.
- The anonymousity of the system is one of the unique capabilities
- Provide a approach to large quantity bills with out boundaries
Cons
- In spite of the fact that it is decentralized but it doesn't have privacy.
