Bitcoin story seems to be taken from a science fiction novel. In 2008 the anonymous character Satoshi Nakamoto creates a new digital currency that is destined to change the game forever.

Based on peer-to-peer technology and free software basically it allows us to be our own bank. Among its main features it includes the following:

  • It is not controlled by any state, company or financial institution.
  • Avoid the inflation by the design.
  • It’s unforgeable because it’s based on cryptographic ciphers.
  • It allows anonymous payments.
  • Eliminates the third parties as the transactions are made directly from person to person.
  • The money cannot be involved, or seized by the state.
  • It allows citizens of the world to be a little freer.

If you find it just as exciting as we, then we have prepared a compilation of the best documentaries to understand this crypt currency that is already changing the world and, in a few years, everyone will use it daily.
