What is Bitcoin? | Bitcoin Explained | Bitcoin for Beginners | How does Bitcoin works? In this video, you will learn about Bitcoin and how does Bitcoin work.

Bitcoin is regarded as the first cryptocurrency and was launched in 2009. It is a decentralized form of digital cash that eliminates the need for traditional intermediaries like banks and governments to make financial transactions.

Satoshi Nakamoto is a pseudonym used by the person or persons who developed bitcoin. The trading symbol for bitcoin is BTC.

Bitcoin is powered by open-source code known as blockchain, which creates a shared public ledger. Each transaction is a “block” that is “chained” to the code, creating a permanent record of each transaction.

A bitcoin wallet contains a public key and a private key, which work together to allow the owner to initiate and digitally sign transactions, providing proof of authorization.

Bitcoin miners are the members of the peer-to-peer platform who then independently confirm the transaction using high-speed computers, typically within 10 to 20 minutes. Miners are paid in bitcoin for their efforts.

Bitcoin value follows the law of supply and demand.

Bitcoins can be stored in two kinds of digital wallets: Hot Wallet and Cold Wallet.

In Hot Wallet, Digital currency is stored in the cloud on a trusted exchange or provider, and accessed through a computer browser, desktop or smartphone app.

In Cold Wallet, an encrypted portable device much like a thumb drive that allows you to download and carry your bitcoins.

There are four ways to get bitcoins:

1. Cryptocurrency exchanges - Coinbase is the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the U.S., trading more than 30 cryptocurrencies.

2. Investment brokerages - You can buy from Robinhood, Tradestation, eToro and Sofi Active Investing.

3. Peer-to-peer purchases - you can buy bitcoins directly from other bitcoin owners through peer-to-peer tools like Bisq and Bitquick.

4. Bitcoin mining - You can earn bitcoins through mining, but you would need technical expertise for this.

Bitcoin is an incredibly speculative and volatile buy. You can put a small portion of your portfolio on it but not much.

That's all about Bitcoin. Don't forget to subscribe to our channel for such educational videos.
