Frequently Asked Questions

What is Bitcoin?

Bitcoin is the first decentralized virtual cryptocurrency, a form of electronic cash similar to internet banking. Bitcoins are virtual coins that can be stored in a wallet and can be sent from a user to another user via the internet without going through a bank or clearinghouse. The bitcoin network called Blockchain is kept running by miners which are people around the world running a free application called a bitcoin miner. Bitcoins are generated by miners running the miner application which require a lot of computer power and electricity. The reward in bitcoins earned by miners is exactly equal to how much power each miner can provide to the network. The number of bitcoins that can be generated is 21 million and because the number is limited bitcoin it is considered a virtual gold. A good example is air and gold, because air is everywhere and everybody has access to it there is no price, on the other hand, gold supply on this planet is limited and not everybody can extract it which make gold to has a price. Since nobody has control over the bitcoin network the factors that can determine the bitcoin value are supply and demand, competition from others cryptocurrencies, the number of active miners, political conflicts and many others.
