I'm trying to describe the Bitcoin data structure, so I want to name all the properties it has, so far I have these:

--> Pseudo-Anonymity

--> Replicated Database

--> Providence of Transactions

--> Distributed Consensus

--> Proof-of-Work

Am I missing any?

If you want to add one, or indicate a good resource where the properties of the Bitcoin data structure are demonstrated in a very clear way that would be excellent.

There is no "Bitcoin data structure". In fact, there is no such object as a "Bitcoin".

What you are talking about are multiple data structures, each one with different properties. There are the blockchain, blocks, transactions, and transaction outputs.

"Bitcoin data structure" is a very misleading term.
Makes you sound like you are looking for a binary description of the blockchain structure and/or its messages and tx.

What you should call it is rather "Bitcoin characteristics" or something like that.
