Show Notes

Today we take a stroll through a collection of known errors, clarification, and terminology changes from the original whitepaper made available thanks to David A. Harding. The chain of signatures, "one-CPU-one-vote," the distinction between nodes and miners, and much more.  This will have some important details we will reference later in the week while exploring validation and nodes on the Bitcoin network, and what it means to "define" the Bitcoin system. Check out Harding's Github page for the full list and other work he has put together, and follow him on Twitter so you don't miss other great content and discussion: https://gist.github.com/harding/dabea3d83c695e6b937bf090eddf2bb3?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app https://twitter.com/hrdng --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bitcoinaudible/message
