Hacks and Security
There have been several instances where centralized Bitcoin exchanges and wallets have been hacked, resulting in the loss of Bitcoins for the affected users. It is important for users to take steps to protect their Bitcoin and keep their wallets secure and not trust centralized exchanges.
However, it is important to note that the Bitcoin network itself has never been hacked. The decentralized nature of the Bitcoin network, which is secured by cryptographic techniques, makes it extremely difficult to hack.
It is important for users to be aware of the potential risks and to take steps to secure their Bitcoin, such as using strong passwords and keeping their software up to date. It is also important to use reputable and secure wallets and to be cautious when interacting with centralized exchanges.

Bitcoin FAQ
- The lowest denomination of bitcoin, for now, is 1 Satoshi. There are 100 million Satoshis to every bitcoin. That is 8 numbers behind the coma, (1 Satoshi = 0,00000001 Bitcoin).
- Only 21 million or fewer bitcoins will ever exist. The 32 rounds of halving accumulate to 21 000 000 If we do not decide to go sub-Satoshi or change the rules of Bitcoin. Also, the miners can choose the reward up to the current reward level and not necessarily take the full reward.
- The consensus algorithm is Proof of Work [SHA256] (Secure Hash Algorithm 256).
- Bitcoin is run decentralized on a flat structure as opposed to a centralized hierarchical structure.
- Bitcoin is designed to be the sender's “push transaction” and no entity like banks, governments, or 3rd parties can stop a sender from pushing transactions to be executed. In effect, the sender is the ultimate authority and decides to who he or she pays the value.
- The Bitcoin code has never been successfully hacked, but we have seen many examples of centralized wallets that have been broken into (Hacked).
- The software is open source and the code is available on GitHub.
- The difficulty parameter, which is built into the software, is adjusted every 2016 block to change to try and keep a 10-minute block time on average based on the blockchain performance of the last 2016 blocks.
- Hashing is a brute-forced mechanism by the miners (supercomputers with ASIC CPUs (Application Specific Integrated Circuits Central Processing Units)) guessing the right combination.
- An executed SHA256 hash is one try to guess the right combination on the complex lock holding the blocks together.

- As of 15th of April 2024 the blockchain is running at approximately 605 ExaHashes per second or 697 448 197 120 307 000 000 (~697 Quintillion) guesses per second.
- The miners get rewarded for the blocks that they solve and broadcast to the rest of the network first.
- Every 210.000 blocks the miner reward gets halved.
- The current bitcoin software, Bitcoin Core ver. 27.0
- Many new software proposals with larger block sizes have been set on the network backward compatible with Bitcoin Core.
- To change the current software (Hard fork) 75% of miners need to be mining onto the new software. When 75% is reached, there will be a "Grace period" of 1,209,600 seconds (two weeks) before the new features will be in effect and the Hard fork is completed. This according to BIP0101.
- Ten Quattuorvigintillion is the number of unique wallets in the Bitcoin wallet system.

Bitcoin History; Why decentralization is the key to Bitcoin's success
David Chaum, an American computer scientist and cryptographer, is widely recognized as the inventor of digital cash and a pioneer in cryptography and privacy-preserving technologies. The history of cryptocurrency traces its roots back to Chaum's invention of an encrypted system of money called eCash in 1982, which he later followed up with the development of an additional secure transaction system named DigiCash twelve years later in 1995.
However, the journey towards digital cash and privacy-preserving technologies began with Chaum's paper "Blind Signatures for Untraceable Payments," which was first published in 1982. The paper laid the groundwork for research into encrypted communication over the internet, which eventually led to privacy-preserving technologies like Tor the dark net browser. Chaum's paper introduced the concept of blind signatures, a cryptographic technique that allowed a user to sign a message without revealing its content. This technique was the basis of Chaum's eCash, a system that allowed users to make payments over the internet without revealing their identity.
Chaum's eCash system was based on a combination of public-key cryptography and blind signatures, and it provided users with a high degree of anonymity and privacy. The system used digital tokens that could be exchanged between users and merchants, and the tokens were designed to be untraceable. However, despite the potential of eCash, the system failed to gain widespread adoption due to the lack of infrastructure and the difficulty of implementing the system.
The concept of digital cash continued to evolve over the next two decades, with various attempts to develop systems that would provide users with privacy and anonymity. One notable example is the development of Bitcoin, which was first introduced on January 3, 2009. Bitcoin was designed to provide users with a decentralized, peer-to-peer payment system that allowed for anonymous transactions without the need for a trusted intermediary.
The significance of decentralization in the digital cash attempts before Bitcoin lies in the fact that earlier attempts traded decentralization for simplicity, relying on centralized servers to prevent double-spending, making them susceptible to censorship and seizure. However, Bitcoin, created by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto in 2009, achieved full decentralization, allowing for censorship resistance, and immunity to seizure, while providing a push system for fast and easy transactions.
The concept of digital cash was not new, with early attempts made in the late 1980s in the Netherlands and developments in the 1990s by computer scientists such as David Chaum, Nick Szabo, Wei Dai, and Adam Back. However, these attempts were not fully decentralized, and it was not until the advent of blockchain technology and the creation of Bitcoin that a viable, trustless, and fully decentralized digital currency was made possible.
Bitcoin's success can be attributed to its unique combination of full decentralization, immutability, transparency, and limited supply, which has led to widespread adoption, use as an alternative store of value, and investment asset. While the China ban on Bitcoin mining in 2021 caused a temporary drop in price, the network recovered its hashrate in record time and gained in decentralization. Bitcoin's adoption as legal tender in El Salvador in 2021 and its consideration by Panama further demonstrate the growing acceptance of cryptocurrencies worldwide.
In conclusion, Bitcoin's success can be attributed to its full decentralization, which allows for censorship resistance, and immunity to seizure, as well as its unique combination of immutability, transparency, and limited supply. Earlier attempts at digital cash traded decentralization for simplicity, making them susceptible to censorship and seizure. While the concept of digital cash was not new, it was not until the advent of blockchain technology and the creation of Bitcoin that a viable, trustless, and fully decentralized digital currency was made possible.

The Bitcoin Halving Process
The halving happens every 210 000 Blocks
From Block 6 930 000 the block reward will be 0 Bitcoins per block, estimated to be August of 2139.
In total, all block rewards will equal 21 000 000,00000000 Bitcoins. (Because of rounding off error in MS Excel this table was previously calculated wrong, Mr Bitcoin is very sorry)
Bold indicates that it has happened.
