All my dad talks about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency and I always ask him And he never answers me, he tells me to go look it up myself. Thanks for the explanation John
If you actually want an explanation for how bitcoin works, I suggest the video on the topic by 3Blue1Brown (th-cam.com/video/bBC-nXj3Ng4/w-d-xo.html). It does a good job of explaining how everything works.
yaksher watched that just after it came out :), great video and helped me understand loads... Shame my dad whose and financial advisor wouldn't let me put £100 in 😂😂😅😅😭😭😭
ennui.tv that's the name of the coin, it's not a physical coin though. One coin is currently worth 16 thousand USD. It nearly doubled in the last month, so if you're making 6 percent a year in normal stocks (which is good) it would take 7 years to double. That's why so many people are buying it right now. Also because they believe in the technology of it but I'd encourage you to search that yourself.
Even I don't fully understand what it is. However apps that let you store your bitcoin made it possible for people to not worry about the details. All you have to know is bitcoin is globally traded and everyone's bitcoin wallet uses a lot alphanumeric string of letters (ex: 18Z61FhZpzc3YngSDh6qfpHeAgdDAY5WZ8) which is like an email address but for sending money to someone.
Bitcoin is a digital asset that is earned by data miners that are helping to store transactions on a blockchain. In this, computer 'solves' a problem to earn a block of bitcoin. The bitcoin can then be held, transferred, or traded for altcoins. Altcoins are similar to bitcoin, but serve different purposes, depending on the coin. Bitcoin isn't really useful for transactions, as the fees are high. It is used more as a storage of value in the world of cryptocurrency, while other coins are used more as actual 'currency.'
Magic Internet Money. Do you know how treasury bonds are swapped to eventually bring currency into existence? No? Then you don't understand what a unit of traditional fiat currency is either! Well done! All you really need to know is that Magic Internet (proof-of-work based) Money is fundamentally superior to traditional (debt based) fiat currency.
Sir Potato yes but if you already understand money you can make more money by explaining money thus giving money. Especially if you explain money to a mirror
+Equity News First It's a common myth that TH-camrs earn revenue through entities paying to advertise on their videos, they really make money through selling the corpses of their victims. Merry Christmas
Doge and ripple are most likely to spike ATM and clearly BTC will fall soon,but by how much?? BTC cash , red and gold should also drop slightly but remain relatively strong
Lmao Doge and Ripple are not likely to pump at all, ripple is purposely made a steady price for 3rd world countries and doge coin has any real advantages over others.
The most humorous part of this video was the idea that Jack would ever make it to #1 on trending. Clearly that spot's reserved for shite music videos, shite political news feeds, movie trailers whose franchise I couldn't care less about, and the once in a blue corn moon cinema sins video.

That's amazing.
Why is this the best explanation that exists?
arguably
First time the “arguably” in this meme was actually reasonable.
Thanks, this did not help, you are the best.

Thanks for the clarification Mr Stalin.
Joesph_Stalin we don't need coins when we have communism!
What the fuck, I got a Bitcoin ad
Joesph_Stalin whaaaaaaa???...
i think he did that on purpose
Don't get started on mining. Invest in Bitcoin itself first and see where it goes. Don't be reckless
Joesph_Stalin me too
Me too haha

Still don’t know what a BitCoin is
Even I don't fully understand what it is. However apps that let you store your bitcoin made it possible for people to not worry about the details. All you have to know is bitcoin is globally traded and everyone's bitcoin wallet uses a lot alphanumeric string of letters (ex: 18Z61FhZpzc3YngSDh6qfpHeAgdDAY5WZ8) which is like an email address but for sending money to someone.
It's basically what people use to buy illegal porn. Have fun being alive.
It's a cryptocurrency that is obtained by using data mining algorithms to solve hashes.
Bitcoin is a digital asset that is earned by data miners that are helping to store transactions on a blockchain. In this, computer 'solves' a problem to earn a block of bitcoin. The bitcoin can then be held, transferred, or traded for altcoins. Altcoins are similar to bitcoin, but serve different purposes, depending on the coin.

Explaining something you just don't "get"

i got a Bitcoin trading ad before this video WTF
It's almost like there's an algorithm that plays ads related to the video you're watching.
No way
Wowsers!
+A Llama There is, ads are based of the content that you watch. Because 'Bitcoin' was in the title of the video, a Bitcoin ad is likely to come up.
Im pretty sure it was sarcasm....
My ad before this video was from Tai Lopez talking about bitcoins and his video was about as helpful as yours.
super helpful then
“With bing”
Oh there goes me going to get my 50 cents worth of bitcoin

I bought some dogecoins with my bitcoin
This is why we need a new Robin Hood.
Doge and ripple are most likely to spike ATM and clearly BTC will fall soon,but by how much?? BTC cash , red and gold should also drop slightly but remain relatively strong
Dogecoin is a pretty good investment tbf.
Iota could be amazing as well if the rumors of use of it with Microsoft and Samsung are true
Lmao Doge and Ripple are not likely to pump at all, ripple is purposely made a steady price for 3rd world countries and doge coin has any real advantages over others.
