Banking at the speed of texting
Yes you heard it correct, what if you can transfer money at the speed you email your friends and family without requiring middlemen like banks to establish a trusted relationship to verify the transaction.
How would it be if your virtual currency transactions can form blocks of information of previous transactions in an unlimited manner and maintain all records .
Yes that's how bitcoin technology works, every transaction forms a block and gets attached to its previous block transaction forming a chain called blockchain.
Bitcoin Transactions can be public or private in blockchain process.
A transaction can be seen by every user to verify transaction without being directly depending on third party such as banks.
By combining all powerful and personal computer's in the world to protect and continuously monitor every transaction, blockchain makes it really tough to hack the process.
