On Monday, February 4th at 18:30, Haifux will gather to hear a talk by
Meni Rosenfeld:
Bitcoin
Abstract
Bitcoin is the world's first decentralized digital currency. Powered by
a peer-to-peer network of computers running free software, it was
created as an alternative to the existing monetary system in an attempt
to offer people more autonomy over their finances and ease of
transaction. In this talk, we will give a broad overview of the Bitcoin
system and describe its motivation and its current status. We will then
explain the open cryptographic protocol in its foundation and how it
works to enable Bitcoin's features.
The slides are available at http://haifux.org/lectures/292/
