We break down the basics of Bitcoin, discuss its history, and explain key concepts, providing a solid foundation for anyone new to the world of cryptocurrency.

Simplified explanation: Miners solve puzzles to verify transactions, using energy in a process called Proof of Work (PoW).

Pillars of Bitcoin (Open Blockchain)

Open Source: Transparent source code available on GitHub. Permissionless: No age or location restrictions for users. Borderless: Seamless transactions worldwide. Censorship-Resistant: Miners update transactions without validating their purposes. Publicly Verifiable: Bitcoin transactions are traceable via Blockchain Explorer, making illicit activities detectable.

Comparison to CBDCs

CBDCs are not peer-to-peer and are controlled by central banks. Bitcoin provides transparency, while CBDCs allow selective verification and potential double-spending.

This session breaks down the barriers to understanding Bitcoin, helping beginners grasp why it's often called the future of money.
