Title: Khan Academy video series on Bitcoin Post by: dmnd on May 02, 2013, 10:49:33 PM Khan Academy have made a video series on bitcoin (https://www.khanacademy.org/science/core-finance/money-and-banking/bitcoin/v/bitcoin-overview), attempting to explain what they are and how they work.
It's by Zulfikar Ramzan. Zulfikar is a world-leading expert in computer security and cryptography and is currently the Chief Scientist at Sourcefire. He received his Ph.D. in computer science from MIT.
