Been able to quickly read the website. You were great writing an article about bitcoin. Though newbies will get confused because it is too quick to introduce bitcoin transactions and private keys. Why don't you add the topic Why bitcoin is needed in our life? to further understand how bitcoin is very popular nowadays and why many people are on it. State some reasons for them to understand deeper about it.

Articles that are quite helpful for a beginner, but it's better if your article is written in this thread, so that all can read it more easily

Nice article and good idea to help more people to have an idea to what bitcoin is but I think the article is not enough and not the only place that newbies can study on bitcoin. This forum is highly educating to users, so newbies can learn here, they have to go to bitcoin section and keep reading threads. That will also help.

I thought you want to know about bitcoin because of the title "What is bitcoin? and the technology behind it" but it's an article. I think the title should be Article About Bitcoin and the technology behind it. My thoughts about this thread is that the title is asking and the content is about an article about bitcoin ready to share.

Yeah me too. The title could be a bit more specific to show that it is for newbies especially to click on it.

That's why OP put a quotation mark in his title. To show that is not a question.

The article is good but lacks the basic since you jump suddenly to TA of bitcoin. Yeah, adzino is right, text format is kinda big and annoying at the same time maybe you should reconsider of making it smaller.

All I know is that I know nothing.
It is not really "newbie friendly" in my opinion, because I agree with some of the other posters that you jumped into the more advanced aspects of it, too quickly.   Tongue

Also, you are saying... " Bitcoin is a digital currency (or cryptocurrency) that enables people to trade anonymously without any other third-party financial institutions." ….Yes, you can trade anonymously if you use Bitcoin correctly, but most people only stay pseudo anonymously, because they re-use Bitcoin addresses frequently.  Tongue

newbies should not even read articles such as these because they are written by people who don't have enough experience in the field to be able to write an actual newbie friendly article explaining what bitcoin is. not to mention that there already exists lots of better and older articles available in places such as bitcoin.org and bitcoin wiki,... where they should refer to instead.
the fact that the article calls bitcoin something you can trade shows the little understanding of the author.

The attention span of people this days is not that long, they normally scan the page and click on something that looks interesting for them specifically.

Also another idea is that you could write a resume of it here and paste the link at the bottom of the it so people who want to know more can click on it. That way it's more possible that someone will find your post useful.

Title is the first weapon to attract readers, at least the current title is better than what is suggested by nakamura imho. Why? Simple as it is targeted to newbies, while newbies are looking for information and they usually type on google "what is...." not "article about..."
I think the article is good, but it will be better if the writer add some videos about it. Simply because reading a bit long article is annoying for most people, while video will give a better and easier understanding of the content.

It is a nice initiative that you want to help newbies understand what bitcoin is and everything relating to the technology running it but I think post thread will be very helpful at the Beginner & Help section. that is where newbies and average users with little information acquire basic info about everything related to cryptocurrency and blockchain technology.  You should try and open that section and share your in-depth knowledge and understand on Bitcoin and Blockchain technology there.

Its a good write I would say. But, you need to change the interface a bit. The text seems kinda a larger than normal and kinda gets annoying to read. And instead of going to direct technical terms/part of the technology, it is better to explain them how to use it and to store it safely. People  who are new to crypto currencies might end up thinking that it is a very difficult thing to understand and use.

That is why he used the quotation mark on "What is bitcoin?".

There are some videos which explain what is bitcoin and they are mostly in animation form so to be colorful and attractive like this one for instance https://youtu.be/xSomPDhOAu4
To be more technical there is this one which has alot of the numbers involved https://youtu.be/l9jOJk30eQs
I find them both rather well done rather then reading about it on a website which peoples interest might not be there while they usually have more attention span when watching it outlined in a form of animation or video.

if you ask behind technology in bitcoin, maybe you should learn basic about bitcoin, in learning you will surely know if what is behind technology in bitcoin and you will know what bitcoin is, all of that definitely requires a lot of learning, if you want what is bitcoin and what is behind that technology.

I like the concept and purpose of your article, but you enter the wrong room. I suggest that this thread be moved to the beginner's room only.

It is a good article. It help newbies to make it clear on them what industry what are they going to enter. This is good because newbies will understand well about bitcoin and it's function so they have a chance to decide if they are  going to continue in bitcoin industry or they will quit while we are starting in a short period of time. Thanks to this post. More power!
