Whitepaper
“Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System” is a groundbreaking document that presented Bitcoin to the world for the first time. The paper proposes a decentralized electronic currency system, where users can transact directly with one another without the need for a central authority or intermediaries. The primary innovation lies in its use of a distributed ledger, known as the blockchain, which records all transactions. This system uses cryptographic techniques to ensure the integrity and security of transactions, making it resistant to fraud and double-spending. The paper lays the foundation for the creation of Bitcoin and the evolution of cryptocurrency technology.
