We have all heard of the blockchain. But what is it? We have all heard of Bitcoin, but, “I can’t invest in something I can’t hold”. What gives it value? How is it calculated? And how anonymous is it, really?

All of these questions and more will be answered in this fast paced, but easy to understand lecture on what the blockchain is, how it is calculated, how a bitcoin gets mined or created, and how traceable it is.
