What is Bitcoin?
Bitcoin is the very first evolution of a new category of money called “Cryptocurrency”. Bitcoin is a form of digital currency, which is created and held electronically. Bitcoins are not printed and not controlled by anyone. So this currency isn’t physically printed by a central bank, make its own rules and is unaccountable to the population. Bitcoins are created digitally and can be used to buy things electronically. In that sense, it’s like other conventional dollars, yen or euros which are also traded digitally but here are the important characteristics of bitcoin that makes it different from other form of conventional money:
==> It is Decentralized i.e. the bitcoin network is not driven by one central authority. That means each and every machine that mines and proceses transactions are part of a single network and the machines work together. So even if some part of the network goes offline for some time, your money will still keep on flowing.
==> Kind of Anonymous. Any user can hold multiple bitcoin addresses for transactions as they are not linked with some personal identification information like names and addresses.
==> It is Completely Transparent. The details of every single transaction that happened in the network are stored by bitcoin. The term that is used to represent this is known as “Blockchain”. So if you have used any bitcoin address publicly, then anyone can determine how many bitcoins are stored at that particular address but they will not know that the bitcoins are yours.
==> Easy Set Up… Conventional banks takes a lot of time to open a bank account and setting up merchant settings. But you can easily set up a bitcoin address within seconds without any need of any payable fees.
==> No Transaction Fee… Generally banks charge a certain amount of transaction fees for international transactions but bitcoin doesn’t charge any transfer fee for any kind of transactions.
==> Non-Repudiation… So any party cannot deny the bitcoin transaction. Once your bitcoins has been sent, they are not coming back, unless the recipient decides to return the bitcoins to you.
==> No Credit Card, No Verification…. It is not mandatory to have a credit card to buy bitcoins, you can use any payment methods to pay the seller. Further, Buying and selling bitcoins is anonymous and requires no verification.
Hence, Bitcoins are “Mined”… They are not based on gold or silver but are based on “Mathematics”. To know more about bitcoin, you can read the post “What is Bitcoin?” and the telegraph blog on “How to Get your Virtual Hands on Bitcoins”.
