Show Notes

When we dig to the very base elements of Bitcoin, we find it is merely digital points.  What make these integers different from identical ones on billions of other computers?  It is the rules that restrict the editing of those specific integers we call Bitcoin, in other words, it is the network of validating nodes that define it. In this episode you will hear Part 1 of my argument as to why.

Don't forget to check out @StopAndDecrypt's relevant article series and the amazing graphics for visualizing the relationship between nodes, miners, and the network by visiting the page below:
