How does it work? If you look at its images, it looks like a golden coin.



 Most people who do not know about cryptocurrency consider it a golden coin. 



But this is not the case at all, Bitcoin is a kind of digital currency as opposed to a traditional currency. Which does not have any physical form. That is, it is only used on the Internet.

Just as a rupee is worth 1 Bitcoin also has its own value. Overall, it is also a kind of currency. But there is a lot of difference between common currency and Bitcoin which we will go into in detail. So in this post, we will give information about bitcoin

Like common currency, it is not operated by any bank or government, but is a decentralized digital currency. For example, when you conduct a transaction from account 1 to account 2, then an intermediates (bank or government) is needed to make that transaction successful.

This does not happen in the context of bitcoin, rather it uses peer-to-peer technology. That is, all the members on the network are connected to each other so that no middleman is needed while conducting the transaction. So Bitcoin is completely open-source, everyone can use it.

Its transactions are verified by network nodes through cryptography. After that the details of those transactions are stored in a decentralized ledger system called Blockchain. This whole process is defined as Bitcoin Mining.


Miners who do this mining process receive Bitcoin as a reward. After this process a new bitcoin came into existence. It is a fixed asset i.e. only 21 million bitcoin can be created and till date 80% of it has been mined. We can exchange bitcoin with other currencies, products, and services.
