Title: Challenge: Can You Summarize Bitcoin in One Sentence?
Post by: expertinfo888 on June 28, 2018, 01:26:28 AM
I have had trouble finding a way to explain to others what bitcoin is in an easy-to-understand, straightforward way that really encompasses all of what bitcoin is not just parts of it.

Perhaps it really can't be explained in a short, simple way that incorporates everything that bitcoin is, but I am hoping someone here might be articulate enough to do so.

I'd really love to have one sentence that is able to do this. Hope you can provide it!

without using the buzzword jargon that requires more explanation. or comparisons to cash which involves metal coins or paper bank note misconceptions..

bitcoin is a electronic cheque currency system fully validated and chain locked into blocks of transactions by random people using specialised computers around the world

why do i use these words
cheque:- unlike bank notes or coins. bitcoin is about transactions with a destination, amount and signature. just like a cheque
chainlocked into blocks of transactions:- better than waffling about blockledgers, hashes and immutability. it explains where the term blockchain derives from
random people:- no point waffling about decentralised and not bank institutional control
specialised computers:- standard computers are not enough. and waffling about asics just ends up with more questions

I don't think the winning entry in that contest was accurate.

btw - a cheque is a bill of exchange, and Bitcoin isn't a bill of exchange imho.
