Hello everyone, We all know Bitcoin is pretty hard to explain to those who do not share at least the basic knowledge of computer logic and coding and we all also know that many of those who do understand it often suffer from the curse of knowledge and are unable to explain it in simple, layman friendly ways so most people could have even a fighting chance of grasping the basic concept behind it. But it is my opinion that in order for Bitcoin to grow people will want to understand at least the general picture of what it is and how it works before they'll consider using it and that's why I decided to do something about this IMO problem. Despite being a complete amateur for creating video content, a foreigner to whom English is not the native language, and not even a programmer who would understand precisely how Bitcoin works I decided to start a youtube channel and recorded a few videos trying to make Bitcoin easier to understand. I think what I created has value and think I should continue making more, but I want to be sure so I decided to write this post and share my content with this community first and decide whether or not to continue based on the response I'll get. So please, take a few minutes and check them all out, give me your feedback and consider rewarding me with a tip. If you do and the response is positive, I have a lot more topics and ideas in mind I'd like to cover and share. (disclaimer: these may not be 100% technically correct and I merely tried to be practically correct in order to keep it as simple as possible) Why care about Bitcoin: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ClLbv1yisG4 Understanding Bitcoin: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTFiDeeBpm8Bitcoin currency rules: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4lNWJYy0vABitcoin transaction properties: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJqFmlhN1loBitcoin rule enforcement part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZuTdRvZLE0Channel introduction video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnHLHIz7CXE |

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

I like the name--bitcoincurve--and the premise. I'll assume there's a reason why the videos are currently private.

I'd want to make it available in french, but while at it, if the English Caption was made (not automagically) it would translate itself into many more languages.
How does that work, can you add CC as text ?

feedback ...
liked part 1,
liked part 2 but i would have liked to see a map projection that shows greenland as smaller than south america. this is a minor detail that probably i am just personally sensitive to. you can probably disregard this ciriticism heh.
liked part 3 especially the imagery of the tungsten impregnated gold bar.
liked part 4,
liked part 5 (aside from the chosen map projection),
liked part 000 and for some reason it brought a tear to my eye. but i probably just need my meds. anyway, good stuff
donated (a ~dollar cuz i'm poor)

Thanks for all the positive comments thus far, I really appreciate them and the tips you sent me. really good stuff!

I decided to keep all videos unlisted for 24hours after my announcement to give this community the exclusive preview. I'll switch them to public tomorrow. |

I have no idea how that works, I'll have to look into it. |

before you make them public, I'd like to take a crack at doing a few edits to your videos.
add sound FX, animations etc...
I'll edit one of your videos tonight and if you like it, i could do some edits on all the videos.
is that cool?

Really awesome videos! I don't think they need editing. The sound and imagery are fine. No need to go overboard. It's the content that matters. Your delivery is smooth. Sharing videos on blog now.
