Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies simple Explained by Juan Rodulfo at Ubuntu Cafe

What is Bitcoin?

Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency invented in 2008 by a person or group using the name Satoshi Nakamoto. His employment began in 2009, when its implementation was released as Open-Source software.

According to CoinMarketCap there are currently 8,528 Cryptocurrencies. In a cryptocurrency system, the integrity, security and balance of accounts is maintained by a community known as miners. This community uses its computers or other specialized hardware to validate and date transactions, adding them to a collective database.

Many cryptocurrencies are designed to gradually decrease unit production, imposing a limit on the total number of units that may be in circulation. For example, Bitcoin at the production date of this program has a running amount of 18,633,931 coins and a maximum supply of 21,000,000 coins.

According to NBC News in a press release published on February 18, 2021, a couple of days ago, the Total Capitalization of the Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency Market reached an all-time record of $1 trillion.

Why is Bitcoin and Crypto so attractive?

SECURITY: The first and most important feature of Bitcoin and other currencies of its style is its encryption, Breaking the security existing in a cryptocurrency is mathematically possible, but the cost to achieve it would be extremely high. For example, an attacker trying to break Bitcoin’s proof-of-work system would need greater computational power than the entire fabric (red-swarm) of all miners in the system, and yet it would only have a 50% chance of success, in other words, breaking Bitcoin’s security would require a capacity greater than that of Google-sized tech companies.

DECENTRALIZATION: Cryptocurrencies are an alternative currency type or digital currency. The control of each currency works through a decentralized database called blockchain, which serves as a public financial transaction database.

Cryptocurrency systems ensure the security, integrity and balance of your statements through a structured network of agents, called segmented file transfer or multi-fuer file transfer, which are mutually verified as miners, which are mostly general public and actively protect the network by maintaining a high rate of algorithm processing, in order to have the opportunity to receive a small tip, which is randomly distributed. That is, there is no Bank or Government printing banknotes or bank notes.

EFFICIENCY: The use of Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies for the execution of payments provides the following advantages:

  • Reduces the transaction cost because there is no intermediation.
  • Reduce times. Although online payments are fast, settlements between the parties take time and the seller receives the amount days after payment. With cryptocurrencies, the delay is in the order of minutes.
  • Eliminates the need to use financial agents to transact.
  • It allows citizens who are victims of currency exchange controls imposed by Dictatorial Governments to have access to Goods and Services of First Need, such as Venezuela.

Steve Kovach of CNBC, on February 8, 2021 publishes the following press release: Tesla will acquire $1.5 billion of Bitcoin and plans to correct it as a form of payment, so Michael Miebach CEO of Mastercard reveals in Bloomberg’s press release on February 17, 2021, that his company plans to accept cryptocurrencies.

How to buy Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies?

When buying Bitcoin, it is important that you understand that in addition to being a currency it is a financial instrument whose price is subject to market speculation, which can make your investment fluctuate positively or negatively.

It is also extremely important that you save your keys and forms of access jealously, because even though it is mathematically almost impossible to duplicate or clone your coins, they can be stolen by subtracting your keys and impersonating your identity.

There are two types of wallet for your digital currencies or cryptocurrencies: the hot one which means it is connected to the Internet and the cold one that remains disconnected to the network and are like a kind of Pendrives.
