If you are still confused about how bitcoin works. Think of it as an advanced technology than can help our life easier and more convenient because of it's advantageous attitude. We can use it as an online payment, as an investment and it is a peer to peer transaction which we do not need the third party that makes it more lighter for us to handle transactions.

yes like that, because we buy bitcoin in the market with money, and bitcoin in the market belongs to the person who placed the sell order at the same time. so your answer is about the agreement, right.

There is a lot of misunderstanding and confusion when it comes to bitcoin. Mainly because it is relatively new and now it became popular in the mainstream media there have been lot of here say of how the bitcoin works.

I am new when it come to bitcoin but I have read some articles about it. This is basically what I understand correct me please if I am wrong
I have read that it is not a code or a data that can be stored and downloaded but it is more like a mutual agreement. Is that right?



According to my understanding in bitcoin, it is a virtual currency that can be convert into any fiat currency, depending on the nations who are accepting or adopting the system it has. Because here in my place Bitcoin was being accepted through the exchange we have here. Where it became convenient to us to use it in different categories such billings, Internet, tuition fees, remittances and money transfer thru banking.
Yes, Bitcoin is very useful, because it makes it easier to pay in various stores that accept Bitcoin, enough to use smartphones in payment, because Bitcoin is a very effective alternative exchange tool in the digital era like today.
by having our own wallet, we can transact and save our own digital money. so that we seem to have our own bank. and with a decentralized system making transactions safer and faster

You see, Bitcoin rate is determined by supply and demand. Supply is well defined and well controlled, new coins only enter the system through mining. Demand is set by a number of buyers willing to but additional bitcoins. The number of buyers and the amount they are willing to invest is a function of the current price compared with their expectation of its price trajectory and the volatility of that price. Cryptocurrencies have had major sources of investment poured into them and the blockchain industry as a whole and the technology is evolving all the time to make the market more diverse, safe, and open to all.

Bitcoin works like a stock market you will going to invest more as you can afford the price of coin and buy into a low price and sell into high.
absolutely right and bitcoin is a place to invest that is very promising because the price of each year is experiencing a good price increase, so most investors who invest in bitcoin must have become rich because the profits gained are large

Most people can learn the basics of bitcoin and how to use it within 20 minutes.  You don't need a deep understanding of technology to use it.  I think a lot of new users are scared off because it looks complicated from the outside and storing your private keys safely can be a concern.  I have been helping all my family members to understand bitcoin and how to use it this past year.
Yes, bitcoin is not a data nor it is a code, it is a currency. Meaning, someone is talking about blockchain when you say it is a code or a data, yes there is coding involved and data involved with blockchain but the bitcoin is not the thing you talk about it is blockchain.

Bitcoin is the currency whereas blockchain is the underlying asset of it. Bitcoin is a currency you change hands and one gives to other like any other currency, blockchain provides a more secure way and a stored way of changing that hands. Currently when I give you some dollars cash than there is no data to back that up and if I say you stole it from me there is no proof of you did or you did not whereas in bitcoin you can show the blockchain transaction. Bitcoin is slightly changing into commodity you hold for investment but the idea stays the same.

mutual agreement, it is true that the blockchain system used by bitcoin uses a joint agreement system meaning that each transaction will pass several confirmations from each block if one of the blocks does not confirm the transaction then the transaction will not be valid and can be declared null, many things make the block not conducting transactions including the lack of GAS costs, so that every transaction that occurs will be recorded on many blocks so that it cannot be manipulated by anyone

Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency or a digital money in the internet developed by Satoshi Nakamoto. In order for you to have some, you have to work for it or earn it or mine it and you need to have an account in online or offline. Its price is unstable, it may go up or down every year. It is convertible into cash like dollar or peso.

For some people they only know that Bitcoin works only for making them a lot of money in a short time without even doing anything. But for us we still don't know what will be the role of Bitcoin in the future.

Basically Bitcoin is a digital journal that records who has how much Bitcoin. Banks generally also have a large amount of money. What distinguishes Bitcoin is a digital journal that is not stored in a particular building or party. In Bitcoin, digital journals are used for each person, or that allows and helps the transaction process (called the manager). So making a digital journal you can store from all other users. There is no one party that controls this journal, everything.

In 2017 and 2018, Bitcoin and various other forms of Cryptocurrency have taken off in a big way. But how does a product that doesn't actually exist work?
Bitcoin was the first cryptocurrency, but others have followed - like Ethereum.
Bitcoin is digital money that uses encryption to keep transactions secure and control the creation of new units.
Some original users of Bitcoin and other forms of cryptocurrency have become very rich over recent months as they effectively treat buying into the platform like the stock market - buy Bitcoin low and sell high.
Bitcoin has actually been around since 2009 but share prices have gone up as people start to trust traditional money less, sort of like how your grandparents keep their money under a mattress,because they don't trust banks, but for millenials.
It’s a digital currency, used to pay for items online without any additional bank charges, or government control. Companies and people can buy or sell items using Bitcoin as payment. In 2017, these companies included Microsoft, Virgin Airlines, WordPress and Subway.
Bitcoin has no overall regulation but instead it relies on being 'mined. This is where it gets deeper.

Hope this helps. It is just a basic summary of how the transactions in bitcoin really work out in real. And if you want to get more clarification on the basics of bitcoin then you must enhance your knowledge by reading some good books for the beginners on this topic. There are so many good books available and also there are some online lectures available. i think that would also help. And I really think before starting in the market, one must be clear with the basics so that there are no problems in the future. Kindly go through this forum, there are many threads for beginners to help them get an understanding of the market.

bitcoin work on many things like with the help of block chain , transaction with private key and many more i hope you can understand with this image..
https://bitcoin.org/img/icons/bitcoin-how-it-works.svg

1)Balances - block chain
 The block chain is a shared public ledger on which the entire Bitcoin network relies. All confirmed transactions are included in the block chain.

2)Transactions - private keys
 A transaction is a transfer of value between Bitcoin wallets that gets included in the block chain. Bitcoin wallets keep a secret piece of data called a private key or seed, which is used to sign transactions, providing a mathematical proof that they have come from the owner of the wallet

3)Processing - mining
 Mining is a distributed consensus system that is used to confirm waiting transactions by including them in the block chain. It enforces a chronological order in the block chain, protects the neutrality of the network, and allows different computers to agree on the state of the system.

4)Going down the rabbit hole
 This is only a very short and concise summary of the system. If you want to get into the details, you can read the original paper that describes the system's design, read the developer documentation, and explore the Bitcoin.
