Episode 48: Distributed e$ (eCash) (00:42:40)
Today we tell you how you can mine gold! Well, we tell you how you can mine Bitcoins. What’s a Bitcoin you ask? Bitcoins are digital currency that have been getting a lot of attention recently, so we decided to talk about them! We start the show with a discussion of currency in general and the role that digital currency is beginning to take in society.
With that out of the way, we jump right into what Bitcoins are, how to get them, what they’re worth, and even where you can spend them. We also dedicate some time to talking about the recent “issues” associated with Bitcoin and seeing how this has changed the value of a Bitcoin.
