Abstract

We will start from basic of bitcoins (i.e. mining, usage etc.) and then proceed to basic crypto used in bitcoins (focus will be on how instead of boring what). Then, we will try to understand distributed consensus logic and incentive sharing scheme which keep this system going. The talk will conclude with speculation about future of crypto currencies.
