The summary - Bitcoin

This article is about Bitcoin. It starts by explaining that it is a digital currency of limited quantity that has to be mined using many computers. Already most of it is already in circulation, but there are still over two million yet to be mined. It also says that there is something called "blockchain" that registers the transactions of Bitcoin's users and that is open for everyone to see. The article carefully explains the mining process, which is very complex. It also gives a historical overview, which starts in 2008 with someone called Satoshi Nakamoto, who may be one person, or the name given to a group of people. According to the article Bitcoin is being used as payment online and they say it is easy for companies to use. Furthermore, the article discusses investments in Bitcoin and what risks are involved. There is the danger that the digital units could become worthless if people lose faith in it and also, when all transactions are online there will always be hackers who may get into someone's computer and may be able to transfer the stolen Bitcoin to another account. Although I have read these eight pages five time, I still find Bitcoin very difficult to understand, but if it the future, then I will probably have to read this many more times.
