    When a large number of people are making huge profits from their relatively small investments, heads turn.

  • 2

    In this case, the drama is even greater because people around the world are making money off of another obscure form of money.

  • 3

    Bitcoin... Let's start with what it is. Bitcoin is a digital currency. It's completely intangible.

  • 4

    So unlike dollars, there aren't any bills or coins, and Bitcoin transactions happen digitally.

  • 5

    Anonymously and without the help of any banks or middle men, you can already use it to book hotels, shop online and some restaurants like subway even accept Bitcoin.

  • 6

    So you're probably wondering how Bitcoin gets printed or how you could send Bitcoin without the help of a bank.

  • 7

    For this you can think blockchain technology. Let's talk about the blockchain.

  • 8

    When you Venmo⁽¹⁾ your friends, there's a bank to oversee, approve, and log that transaction.

  • 9

    The bank acts like a middleman that we've all entrusted to supervise our money.

  • 10

    Banks can also charge you fees, freeze your account and they can also be vulnerable to major data breaches.

  • 11

    That just doesn't exist with Bitcoin. Instead, Bitcoin uses blockchain technology. It's what allows us to cut out that middle man and send money directly to each other.

    在这种情况下,戏剧性就更大了,因为世界各地的人们正在从另一种模糊的货币形式中赚钱。

    比特币……让我们从它是什么开始。比特币是一种数字货币。它完全是无形的。

  • 4

    因此,与美元不同,比特币没有任何纸币或硬币,它的交易是数字化的。

  • 5

    在没有任何银行或中间人的帮助下,你可以匿名使用比特币预订酒店、在线购物,地铁等一些餐厅甚至接受比特币。

  • 6

    所以你可能想知道比特币是如何印出来的,或者你如何在没有银行帮助的情况下发送比特币。

  • 7

    对此,你可以考虑区块链技术。我们来讨论一下区块链。

  • 8

    当你Venmo你的朋友,有一个银行来监督,批准和记录交易。

  • 9

    银行就像一个中间人,我们都委托它来管理我们的钱。

  • 10

    银行还会向你收取费用,冻结你的账户,而且它们也很容易受到重大数据泄露的影响。

  • 11

    这在比特币中并不存在。相反,比特币使用区块链技术。这让我们可以省去中间人直接给对方汇款。

  • 12

    因此,不再由银行监控每笔交易,而是由计算机网络来验证每笔交易。
