Hello everyone I hope everyone is staying at home , today I stumbled across an article about Bitcoins and I would love to share some interesting facts about Bitcoins :')

1. Apparently people in the community are using Honey badger as the unofficial mascot of Bitcoins .

2. Apparently in 2010 due to a bug 184 billion BTC were produced 😂 , don't be so happy guys this error is already erased .

3. The maximum number of Bitcoins is not actually 21 millions but actually 20.99 something.

4. A smaller unit than Satoshi is in use now called msat!

5. Bitcoin's uptime is covered apparently 99.99% which is supposed to be an amazing thing if a centralized body achieve it .

6. The Disappearance of Bitcoins is actually connected with CIA when a person named Gavin actually went and complained about him. - creepy - (I don't think he would have disappeared if all he did was say good things about him)

7. The first Faucets actually gave 5 BTC ! *5* to each visitor ( why did I not know of this before 😭)

8. It is only used 10% for the crime thing ! ONLY 10% !
(For people asking me to back it up 😂 "
Illegal Activity No Longer Dominant Use of Bitcoin: DEA Agent. A special agent with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has reportedly revealed that the use of bitcoin in illegal activities has shrunk to about 10 percent from 90 percent previously.", Read about it first !)

9. There are around 70 forks related to Bitcoins.

10. Mining consumes much energy as a mid size country 😅 ( we gotta use some renewable sources soon enough )

11. The first transaction for Bitcoins was made for PIZZA !(first time when it was used as a Currency)

12. Lightning network can hold millions of transactions per second! ( Trust me that's good )

13 . Since 2017 the Bitcoins have achieved higher transactions compared to PayPal related to values .

There are around 40 facts here , feel free to read and share some of your own 😊 .
I really enjoyed reading this thread. It is really interesting since. This is something that is often forgotten, which is a little more than appropriate when speaking of Ghost Bitcoins. You see, a significant number of Bitcoins that have been mined and given to users are now inaccessible, either because the keys to the wallets they are store in have been lost, or the wallets themselves have been lost.

Trading platforms are completely safe. You just need to make sure that you keep your information like your passwords strong enough for your accounts not to get hacked. Don't share your information with anybody.

Due to Covid-19, the bitcoin scams are increasing. They are sending threatening emails saying that they will leak our personal information and infect us and our family with corona virus if we donot send payment to a bitcoin wallet.
