Title: Physics in Bitcoin (Cyrptocurrency)? Post by: TheFalseHuman on April 25, 2014, 05:20:10 AM I was just wondering if there is anything physics related to Bitcoin, or cyrptocurrency in general, other than like the power requirements and such for the miners/GPU's.

Bitcoins are not an exception Math is more "fundamental" than physics. It is more true to say math is related to everything lol. :D Title: Re: Physics in Bitcoin (Cyrptocurrency)?

Post by: NoL1m1tZ on April 29, 2014, 04:47:24 AM In my opinion, it's mathematical only The idea could be said to be mathematical only, but the implementation is highly physical. How is the data of bitcoin stored? The manipulation of electrosensitive substrate, how is that information transmitted? Via electricity and light waves.
