Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, the brothers who sued Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg for $140million, alleging that he stole the idea for elements of the social network from them, claim to have as much as $11million invested – or had, as the last two days have seen a dramatic popping of the bitcoin bubble.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

Ask not what Bitcoin can do for you - ask what you can do for Bitcoin.
