Hello Bitcoin Forum,

after hours of reading the Forum, i´m still not grasping all of this bitcoin-terminology and phrases and abbreviations. I looked for a sticky post at various places in the forum but couldn´t find one. Does such thing exist here?

I haven't seen a page with it, but if you ask, people will help. :-)

For starters, maybe you could list some terms that you do not understand?

Maybe you already understand them now, but it sure helps to post a few terms. I'll contribute some and add definitions later. We can make a sticky.

input
output
unspent output
transaction
block
blockchain
wallet
address
private key
public key
hash
SHA-256D
Scrypt
deterministic wallet
hierarchical deterministic wallet
