Hello pals,
Recently I introduced Bitcoin and cryptocurrency to my friends and family,they liked the concept but they asked me a question that I wasn't able to answer.Is Bitcoin really secure?What if a hacker was able to hack Bitcoin system/blockchain?Who manages Bitcoin security and what are the security measures taken to avoid hackers being able to steal Bitcoins?Why Bitcoin is not blocked for those who use it illegally by buying/selling in the deepweb market?What if governements ban Bitcoin because of these people?
I really appreciate if you guys give me some answers
What I know is it's almost impossible to hack the blockchain. But for our own bitcoin, we have to take security measures not to get stolen. It's our own responsibility. Currently, hardware wallets are best to protect against hackers.
I think government can't ban bitcoin just because of those who use it in illegal ways because many bitoins are also in the good hands at the same time. They might need to find a better reason to ban it. It will just scare away some cautious newcomers.
To conclude, I believe people behind the stage are always trying to improve on bitcoin including those illegal issues.
