About Bitcoin
Bitcoin is a digital currency that can be exchanged among peers via the bitcoin network. Bitcoin transactions are cryptographically verified and recorded in a blockchain, which is a publicly distributed ledger, by network nodes.
The cryptocurrency was created in 2008 by an unknown individual or group of individuals using the alias Satoshi Nakamoto.
After its implementation became open-source software, the currency was first used in 2009. Bitcoin’s legality varies by region. Nine countries have explicitly prohibited the use of bitcoin, while another fifteen have done so implicitly.
Several governments have made use of bitcoin in some capacity. Although Bitcoin has been legalized in El Salvador, merchant adoption remains low.
Bitcoin is a pseudonymous currency, which means that funds are not linked to real-world entities but rather to bitcoin addresses. Owners of bitcoin addresses are not explicitly identified, but all blockchain transactions are public.
Furthermore, transactions can be linked to individuals and businesses using “idioms of use” and cross-referencing public transaction data with known information on the owners of specific addresses.
Furthermore, bitcoin exchanges that trade bitcoins for traditional currencies may be required by law to collect personal information. To increase financial privacy, each transaction can generate a new bitcoin address.
