Bit-coins


   Today I'm going to be going over Bit-coins.  Bit-coins are a online currency that can't be tracked and is a secured fund. 
   
     Bit-coins use a thing called  cryptography making bit-coins a form of cryptocurrency. .  Bit-coins use a thing called Blockchain that keeps you from double spending the same bit-coin.  The way the Blockchain keeps you from double spending is that it keeps a record of all transaction that occur with bit-coins.   The Blockchain is controlled by a distributed network that runs a program to solve cryptographic puzzles.  Also people who help devote computing power to the blockchain are called miners, because the first one that solves the puzzle are awarded bit-coins.  This form of "mining" is how new bit-coins are made.

     Bit-coins started off in 2009 as currency.  Their first major problem was that in 2009 an exploit could be used to make a unlimited use of bit-coins.  The Bit-coin value can differ dramatically due to its nature.  A few mainstream media service have started accepting bit-coins.  Currently China is the largest trading exchange of bit-coins.
It is possible to buy a physical version of a bit-coins which can be broken to reveal the code for use

     Bit-coins are also affected by legal issues.  The government(s) don't like bit-coins because they can't be tracked, making them very common use for criminals.  Also another reason they don't like them is because its harder to tax them. Like anything that's illegal, its only illegal because the government can't tax it it properly.  A bad look on bit-coins is their use on black market sites such as "The Silk Road"  that specializes in selling drugs and other illegal stuff.   Another thing of legal issue is, illegal mining.  Illegal mining can be conducted to through the use of malware and can consume computer usage and increase the computer temperature. 
   The reaction to bit-coins is very mixed with it being used for anything like, buying a new coat for grandma to buying a new grandma through human trafficking.  With sites like the silk road bit-coins will always have trouble due to its nature of its operation use, but actual money can be very well used the same way.

  Well there is my last blog ever for this little blog site thingy-ma jig.  I hoped you liked my little thing on bit-coins and their use.

P.s. like always listening to music is a good way to get things finished, especially pirate metal.

p.s.s. If anything after reading this I might just delete this whole blog site sometime after it's completely no longer needed, as metioned before it was just for class use.

     Today I'm going to be going over three sites that offer free funny entertainment. I n order the site are: Cracked.com, TheOatmeal.com, and Rooster teeth.com.  Let's get started.

Cracked.com
       First up is Cracked.com.  Cracked.com is one these sites that offer's entertainment in a way like you would see it being used for news sites.

Roosterteeth.com
    RoosterTeeth is the name of probably one of my favorite websites to visit and read on a daily or weekly basis.  
this site offfer quite a few things to do and read or watch.  just to name a few things they do and are known for:  RedvsBlue, Machinimas, RWBY, RT comics, short skits, RTX, Acheivement Hunter, gaming news, and few more things I probably didn't mention.  Now, I've been following this site for almost six years now and still read it like its fresh every now and then.
RoosterTeeth's page layout
   RoosterTeeth is deffently a site you really need to check out,  but if you do right now know that their comic line is dicontinued, but has like six or so years of catalog. Also their two major things, RWBY, and RedvsBlue, are on break until their next season starts sometime next year.  Past all of that I highly recomend veiwing this site hopefully without adblock like I've been doing(ooops!! :p).


  now that's it for me on this topic of  stuff for today and I do hope you somewhat enjoyed reading this.


P.S. Right now my keyboard is on fire and my fingers have third degree burns on them,  also I might have whiplash thanks to this awesome music known as Katana, they're a cool band that you should totally check out.

P.S.S.  If any one is wondering what my theme is based off, it's the Goblins comic over on Goblinscomic.com.  

P.S.S.S.  Also didn't know Adblock was on during this usually just use it fore youtube since internet is just crap and youtube is broken.
