Introduction to digital assets
Bitcoin is the first digital asset developed by Satoshi Nakamoto (pseudonym) based on blockchain technology. Unlike existing currencies, it is issued by an algorithm without the intervention of governments, central banks, or financial institutions, and transaction details are verified and managed by users participating in the P2P (Peer to Peer) network. Thanks to its excellent security and limited issuance volume, it has become the most representative digital asset.
technical features
1. In order to forge or falsify transaction details in the Bitcoin network, it is necessary to secure the computing resources of more than half of all network participants, but securing this huge computing power is virtually impossible, making it highly secure. 2. Bitcoin proves the validity of transmission using Proof of Work (PoW), which performs SHA-256 hash algorithm calculations. As compensation for this verification operation, a certain amount of reward is given to the miner in Bitcoin, and this reward is designed to decrease approximately every four years so that no more than 21 million can be issued in the long term.
Current and Future
Bitcoin, which continues to expand its influence, is recognized even in the traditional financial world as a store of value and an inflation hedge. Above all, the potential of blockchain technology demonstrated by Bitcoin and the new ecosystem it has formed are expected to bring about huge changes in the digital world.
