Title: Bitcoin non-technical FAQ
Post by: oleganza on January 26, 2013, 07:27:44 PM
Hi,

I started studying Bitcoin around August/September 2012. Then, in October I've written a better FAQ to focus on things that I thought were more important for beginners.

I'm posting it here now because it turned out, I cannot post to the main discussion boards yet. So I guess I have to get some reputation first :-)

Here is the FAQ. Hope you will find it useful:

Thanks. I thought I knew quite a bit about Bitcoin but I learned a few things reading your FAQ.

Some follow-up to my FAQ: some common bullshit that people say when trying to explain or understand Bitcoin.

Interesting read. Reminds me of a particular anime about why currency will be digital and without government interference.
