Bitcoin is basically a computer file which is stored in a digital wallet app on a smartphone or computer. People can send Bitcoins or part of one to your digital wallet, and you can send Bitcoins to other people.You can buy Bitcoins using real money. You can sell things and let people pay you with Bitcoins.The money you put into Bitcoin is not safe from value fluctuations. Bitcoin is a volatile investment. If you’re looking for a “safe” investment with guaranteed returns, then don’t invest in Bitcoin

Bitcoin is the oldest cryptocurrency in the world. It is a digital currency that is often used to exchange value for goods and services. Bitcoins work on the principle of blockchain technology. Bitcoins can also be mined or produced using a massive computing system, complex technical process, and an active internet connection.People have traded in Bitcoin for over a decade now. Many companies have even started accepting Bitcoins as a payment method. The price of the coins has gone up substantially over the years.

In April 2018, the RBI had effectively banned cryptocurrency transactions via banks and e-wallets in the country. It was initially supported by the Supreme Court, though the top court later quashed the ban in March last year.Earlier this week, the government listed a bill titled The Cryptocurrency and Regulation of Official Digital Currency Bill, 2021 that is aimed to provide a framework for creation of an official digital currency to be issued by the RBI and prohibit all existing private cryptocurrencies. Experts, however, believe that it would take some time for the country to bring any changes.

Bitcoin held at exchanges are vulnerable to theft through phishing, scamming, and hacking. As of December 2017, around 980,000 bitcoins have been stolen from cryptocurrency exchanges.The use of bitcoin by criminals has attracted the attention of financial regulators, legislative bodies, law enforcement, and the media.Bitcoin gained early notoriety for its use on the Silk Road.

Weekends have not been welcoming for cryptocurrencies for past some time, and to add to the growing woes, Tesla CEO Elon Musk has again rattled the digital coins through his social media posts.

On Sunday, Musk tweeted that “Goods & Services are the real economy, any form of money is simply the accounting thereof.

Bitcoin’s average swing on Saturdays and Sundays this year comes in at 5.35%. The world’s largest digital coin slipped to trade around $35,541 as of 5:30 am in New Delhi, down 4.12% in the past 24 hours.

After a assault of brickbats from crypto investors, Musk sought to defend his position on Bitcoin in his own way, “Don’t kill what you hate, Save what you love”.

The move extends its downtrend for a second day after a cryptic tweet from Elon Musk that hinted at a potential split with the cryptocurrency.

Weibo, a Chinese social-media service, appears to have blocked some crypto influencer accounts on Saturday, citing violation of unspecified laws and Weibo community rules.

While Weibo has cracked down on various crytocurrency-related accounts in the past years, the news came on top of recent harsh Chinese regulatory rhetoric that have already led to a plunge in prices for many digital coins.

However, as Bitcoin continues to fluctuate in a narrow range, a retest of the $30,000 level could also be in play until more positive catalysts emerge.

 

INTRODUCTION

Blockchain’s most notable use (and perhaps generally disputable) is in digital currencies. Cryptographic forms of money are computerized monetary standards (or tokens), like Bitcoin, Ethereum or Litecoin, that can be utilized to purchase labor and products. Very much like a computerized type of money, crypto can be utilized to purchase everything from your lunch to your next home. In contrast to cash, crypto utilizes blockchain to go about as both a public record and an improved cryptographic security framework, so online exchanges are constantly recorded and gotten.

WORKING OF CRYPTOCURRENCY

Cryptographic forms of money are computerized monetary standards that utilization blockchain innovation to record and get each exchange. A cryptographic money (for instance, Bitcoin) can be utilized as an advanced type of money to pay for everything from ordinary things to bigger buys like vehicles and homes. It tends to be purchased utilizing one of a few computerized wallets or exchanging stages, then, at that point carefully endless supply of a thing, with the blockchain recording the exchange and the new proprietor. The allure of digital forms of money is that everything is recorded in a public record and got utilizing cryptography, making a certain, timestamped and secure record of each installment.

Until this point in time, there are approximately 6,700 digital currencies on the planet that have an absolute market cap around $1.6 trillion, with Bitcoin holding a greater part of the worth. These tokens have gotten unquestionably famous throughout the most recent couple of years, with one Bitcoin rising to $60,000. Here are a portion of the principle reasons why everybody is abruptly considering digital forms of money: Blockchain’s security makes robbery a lot harder since every cryptographic money has its own undeniable recognizable number that is joined to one proprietor.

Crypto lessens the requirement for individualized monetary standards and national manages an account with blockchain, crypto can be shipped off anyplace and anybody on the planet without the requirement for money trading or without obstruction from national banks. Cryptographic forms of money can make a few group rich-Speculators have been driving up the cost of crypto, particularly Bitcoin, assisting some early adopters with becoming tycoons. Regardless of whether this is really a positive presently can’t seem to be seen, as certain retractors accept that examiners don’t have the drawn out advantages of crypto as a top priority.

An ever increasing number of huge enterprises are coming around to the possibility of a blockchain-based computerized money for installments. In February 2021, Tesla broadly reported that it would put $1.5 billion into Bitcoin and acknowledge it as installment for their vehicles.Obviously, there are many authentic contentions against blockchain-based computerized monetary standards. In the first place, crypto is certainly not an extremely controlled market. Numerous administrations rushed to bounce into crypto, however few have a firm arrangement of classified laws in regards to it. Furthermore, crypto is unbelievably unpredictable because of those previously mentioned theorists. In 2016, Bitcoin was valued around $450 per token. It then, at that point leaped to about $16,000 a token in 2018, plunged to around $3,100, then, at that point has since expanded to more than $60,000. Absence of soundness has made a few group get exceptionally rich, while a larger part have still lost thousands.

Regardless of whether computerized monetary standards are the future remaining parts not yet clear. For the present, maybe blockchain’s fleeting ascent is more beginning to flourish actually than unadulterated publicity. However it’s actually gaining ground in this altogether new, profoundly exploratory field, blockchain is likewise showing guarantee past Bitcoin.

Using Tokens

Ethereum software engineers can make tokens to address any sort of advanced resource, track its possession and execute its usefulness as indicated by a bunch of programming directions. Tokens can be music documents, contracts, show passes or even a patient’s clinical records. Most as of late, Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) have become extremely popular. NFTs are special blockchain-based tokens that store advanced media (like a video, music or workmanship). Each NFT can confirm legitimacy, previous history and sole responsibility for piece of computerized media. NFTs have become fiercely famous in light of the fact that they offer another flood of computerized makers the capacity to purchase and sell their creation, while getting appropriate credit and a decent amount of benefits.

Newly discovered utilizations for blockchain have widened the capability of the record innovation to pervade different areas like media, government and personality security. A large number of organizations are presently exploring and creating items and environments that run completely on the blossoming innovation. Blockchain is testing the current business as usual of development by allowing organizations to explore different avenues regarding notable innovation like shared energy dispersion or decentralized structures for news media. Similar as the meaning of blockchain, the utilizations for the record framework will just develop as innovation advances.

 Hello friends! If I gave you a hundred rupee note in the year 1958 and you kept it hidden under your bed for 60 years And if you took out that note today and used it in the market, then the value of that note would have reduced to a mere 1 rupee 20 paise in comparison to 1958 Let me explain it to you from another angle, if you did not understand If you buy something worth 100 rupees today, it would have cost 1 Rupee 20 paise back in 1958 That is 100 rupees of today is equal to 1 rupee 20 paise of 1958 This is because of inflation Inflation means dearness of things that makes things costlier for all of us every year Why does inflation occur and what are the reasons behind this? Is it really a bad thing? And how is inflation related to unemployment and other economic factors? We will talk about all of this in today’s video where I will explain this “ghastly” inflation to you Come, let us see First of all, a very important question- Why does inflation happen and who is causing it to happen? Are some government officials increasing the prices of things arbitrarily? It is not so .

There are several reasons for inflation but I’d like to discuss 4 main reasons for inflation in this article The first reason is very simple- An economic boom That is, a good economic growth When the economic growth is good, then there’s more money in the hands of the people who can spend it on different items When there’s more money in the hands of the people, they can spend it on different items That is, the demand for everything would go up in the economy When demand goes up, the businesses and companies that manufacture these products seek to increase the prices in a bid to earn more profit since so many people are willing to buy So they increase the price of the goods which will then lead to inflation Explaining this with an example- Imagine an aeroplane with 100 seats and 100 passengers have to board that plane But there are only 10 first class seats and 90 economy class seats Now if the passengers are given more money If they’re all given enough money to be able to afford a first class seat, they’ll all want to book a first class seat. But the number of seats are only 10 Not all of them can have a first class seat So what would happen as a response? In response, the airline would hike the prices of its first class seats so that only those who have more money can afford to book a first class seat So basically there is an inflation This type of inflation is called a “demand pull inflation”.

 A demand pull inflation is when the inflation rises with the rise in demand The second reason is the increase in the prices of the raw materials due to different reasons For example, if the prices of wheat and rice rise due to a bad monsoon season, the prices of oil rise or a new tax imposed by the government lead to a rise in the price of one of the raw materials then the companies that manufacture products using these raw materials they’d have to hike the prices of the products to make profits since manufacturing them would become costlier which would ultimately lead to inflation This inflation is called “cost push inflation” The third reason is increase in the salaries No, I’m not joking: When the companies or governments raise the salaries of their employees, then they have to increase the price of their products as well to be able to still make profits .This inflation is called “wage push inflation”.

 There could be other reasons for this as well If unemployment levels are at very low levels in a country, then it is extremely difficult for the companies to replace their employees and if they aren’t replaced, their salaries would have to be raised and this again, triggers inflation And finally, the fourth reason is currency depreciation This can happen due to several different reasons, out of which one of the most important reasons is printing of more notes by the government which leads to the currency losing its value And this is a very dicey reason This could also potentially trigger hyper inflation which is happening in Venezuela today and happened in Zimbabwe in 2008 If the inflation rate touches even 10% in our country, then it would cause the people to comment that things are becoming extremely dear very fast But in Venezuela, between 2016- 2019, the inflation rate was more than 5 crore percent!

 Taking the example of Zimbabwe, Around 2008, the currency of Zimbabwe was losing its value at such a rapid pace that the government began printing 1 million dollar and 1 billion dollar notes! And there existed even a 1 trillion dollar note in Zimbabwean dollars And do you know what the value of that 1 trillion Zimbabwean dollar note was? Just 1 US dollar! This is the extent to which money can lose its value in a case of hyper inflation But this is a very long topic on its own and I will make a video on it in the future because there are several political reasons behind it, apart from the economic ones Talking about the present, the inflation rate in most of the countries today is going down Think about why this is happening It is because of the shrinking demand in the wake of the lockdowns that have been imposed around the world People are buying fewer things and travelling less .

The people do not have money to spend because their businesses have shut down And so, there has been a decline in overall demand And the opposite of the “demand pull”(which I told you about as the first reason) is happening Since the demand is going down, so is the inflation As a response to this, some countries have decided to transfer cash to the people- distribute it for free Now, some people state that doing this would cause the inflation to increase What do you think will happen? I discussed the same logic in this video on Universal Basic Income that the biggest criticism of the Universal Basic Income and the free distribution of money is that it will cause the inflation to spike What do you think? Write down your explanations in the comments below And I will give the answer to this question later in the video I’d like to pose another interesting question before you Is inflation necessary? 

What if there was 0% inflation? Observing superficially, you could think that this would be great as things would stop becoming costlier and that it is good for you as you will be able to afford it for cheap You would be able to save up more and overtime, the value of money would not depreciate either So this would be another great thing! Analyzing deeply upon the reasons that lead to inflation then you would understand that 0% inflation is actually not a good thing This would mean that companies would not raise your salaries Your salary would remain constant And since salaries never go down, therefore, in general, inflation always stays in the positive .

And there is a third reason as well If there is deflation, that is, the prices of things keep decreasing every year, then the people would not want to spend money. They would want to save up First of all, the value of money is increasing, If deflation continues to happen, then five years on, the item that one wishes to buy would come for cheaper So they would want to buy it five years later instead of buying it now This would cut down the overall public expenditure Lesser expenditure would mean that the businesses would start incurring losses The businesses incurring losses would translate to people losing their jobs which would then cause the unemployment to rise I’ve told you about a very long and convoluted connection- You might wonder if it actually happens so Yes it does There is a very interesting relation between unemployment and inflation .

This shows us the inverse relation between unemployment and inflation If there’s economic growth, there will be an increase in inflation and unemployment would go down and unemployment will rise if inflation goes down And this is a very interesting explanation because one would not expect this to happen, but it does in reality But as obvious, there are some extreme limits where this graph is not valid For example, in the case of hyperinflation It isn’t that Venezuela today has 100% employment and 0% unemployment Some other factors come into play there. For instance, political factors which cause inflation to spike But generally, this graph is valid A question arises- Excessive inflation is bad because it would cause hyperinflation and increase dearness Nominal inflation is also bad because it would cause unemployment to rise So, what is the optimum level of inflation that a country should maintain? What could it be? This figure is 2% for the developed countries .

The central banks and the governments of the developed nations have decided that they should maintain an inflation rate of about 2% If it is more, then they would try and reduce it And if it is less, they would try and increase it For India, this rate is 4% with a margin of ±2% So the ideal inflation rate in India should be around 2-6% This keeps the prices stable and keeps the levels of unemployment at their lowest It ensures maximum employment So, if a government wants to control inflation, how can it do that? There can be several ways to do this Generally, the central bank of a country is responsible for controlling the inflation rate and normally, the central bank- RBI, in the case of India- controls the inflation rates by increasing/decreasing its interest rates If RBI increases it interest rates (which are called repo rates) which is charged on loans given to other banks.

 Then fewer banks would want to take loans And these banks in turn, would increase their interest rates as well which would reduce the number of people wanting to take loans This would result in lesser money being circulated in the economy And if this happens so, then inflation would go down And if RBI slashes its interest rates, then indirectly, through other banks, more people would want to take loans and this would push the inflation up So inflation rate can mainly be controlled by increasing or decreasing the interest rates But there are other ways as well- Inflation can also be controlled by printing of more notes Printing of more notes would obviously cause inflation to rise.

 The government can control inflation by imposing more taxes as I had explained in the reasons earlier in this video The government can also control inflation by spending more or by spending less, if there is a recession in a country and there’s no economic growth, then inflation would also decline This happens on a general basis, but not always Sometimes, it also happens that a country’s economic growth is going down and the country is going into recession but inflation is going up This situation is called “Stagflation”. This is a disastrous thing indeed. 

Why does this happen? The reason for this is- Assume that there is a recession within a country, but the cost push factors- the second reason for the rise of inflation that we talked about- The cost of the raw materials is rising For example, the rise of oil prices all across the world so the oil imported would then cost more so the inflation would rise because of cost push factors but there is recession within the country There is another exception from the other side- If there is deflation in a country, but simultaneously, there is economic growth in the country This happened in the USA between 1870-1890 This period is referred to as “The Great Deflation”.

 The cost of the goods were falling by around 2% every year and there was deflation, but there was also an economic boom Both the people and the businesses were making more money and employment was on the rise The reason behind this attributed to the rise in productivity This was a time when there was technological progress at such a rapid pace and new technologies were being developed that it compensated for the deflation Reverting to our original question- if people are given money for free in today’s times during this recession then would it lead to a rise in inflation? In my opinion, the answer of this is no. Inflation would not rise because handing out money wouldn’t amount to such a huge increase in wealth that people become capable to buy things that are not being supplied It would not be so. Because it would push up the demand very slightly.

And demand has fallen so low that giving out paltry sums of money would not alter the demand drastically So I do not think that the distribution of money for free would trigger any sort of inflation No matter how much importance inflation holds for the entire economy, but if we come down to personal consequences and how it personally affects you, then you could say that it has a negative consequence The money that you save up would lose value over time the prices of the things keep going up and dearness would always be on the rise .

This is why people invest their money in different things rather than stashing it under their bed For example, they buy gold with it. Because the price of gold rises overtime The value of money keeps diminishing due to inflation but the value of gold keeps rising Similarly, some people buy real estate/ Property to avoid this And some people invest in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin , Ethereum ,etc.

 Bitcoin (₿) is a decentralized digital currency, without a central bank or single administrator, that can be sent from user to user on the peer-to-peer bitcoin network without the need for intermediaries. Transactions are verified by network nodes through cryptography and recorded in a public distributed ledger called a blockchain. The cryptocurrency was invented in 2008 by an unknown person or group of people using the name Satoshi Nakamoto. The currency began use in 2009 when its implementation was released as open-source software.

Bitcoins are created as a reward for a process known as mining. They can be exchanged for other currencies, products, and services, but the real-world value of the coins is extremely volatile. Research produced by the University of Cambridge estimated that in 2017, there were 2.9 to 5.8 million unique users using a cryptocurrency wallet, most of them using bitcoin. Users choose to participate in the digital currency for a number of reasons: ideologies such as commitment to anarchism, decentralization and libertarianism; convenience; using the currency as an investment; and pseudonymity of transactions. Increased use has led to a desire among governments for regulation in order to tax, facilitate legal use in trade and for other reasons (such as investigations for money laundering and price manipulation).

Bitcoin has been criticized for its use in illegal transactions, the large amount of electricity (and thus carbon footprint) used by mining, price volatility, and thefts from exchanges. Some economists and commentators have characterized it as a speculative bubble at various times. Bitcoin has also been used as an investment, although several regulatory agencies have issued investor alerts about bitcoin.

The word bitcoin was defined in a white paper published on 31 October 2008. It is a compound of the words bit and coin. No uniform convention for bitcoin capitalization exists; some sources use Bitcoin, capitalized, to refer to the technology and network and bitcoin, lowercase, for the unit of account.The Wall Street Journal,The Chronicle of Higher Education, and the Oxford English Dictionary advocate the use of lowercase bitcoin in all cases.

Design

Bitcoin is based on an elliptic curve called “secp256k1” and encrypted with the ECDSA algorithm. The equation for the Bitcoin secp256k1 curve is {\displaystyle y}²={\displaystyle x}³+7. Bitcoin has a proposed Bitcoin Improvement Proposal (BIP) that would add support for Schnorr signatures

Units and divisibility

The unit of account of the bitcoin system is a bitcoin. Currency codes used to represent bitcoin are BTC and XBT.Its Unicode character is ₿. Small amounts of bitcoin used as alternative units are millibitcoin (mBTC), and satoshi (sat). Named in homage to bitcoin’s creator, a satoshi is the smallest amount within bitcoin representing ¹⁄_100000000 bitcoins, one hundred millionth of a bitcoin. A millibitcoin equals ¹⁄₁₀₀₀ bitcoins; one thousandth of a bitcoin or 100,000 satoshis.

 Hello, friends! You already know about the rupee coin and Bitcoin But there’s a new coin that’s globally famous now. It’s called the Dogecoin. The value of our rupee is based on our currency. And Bitcoin is based on Blockchain that promises to revolutionize the monetary systems around the world. 

But this Dogecoin is based on a meme. Literally! This coin was made in jest. Someone took the Doge meme, this meme of the dog was quite famous at some point and made a coin out of it. It’s like someone taking the “Pawri ho rahi hai” meme and turning it into a “Pawri coin”. Or this meme of Akshay Kumar being made into “Akki coin”. It’s quite possible.

 Someone may very well make these Pawri coin and Akki coin. Because cryptocurrency is so decentralised that any person can develop their own coin. They’d need basic coding knowledge to do that. But the thing is that this Dogecoin became so famous that people like Elon Musk started buying it and promoting it. Why did it happen? Come let’s find out in today’s video on Dogecoin.

 After the popularity of Bitcoin, several people brought up its disadvantages. Like, the long transaction time of Bitcoin. Or that the whole process of Bitcoin consumes a lot of energy. And that’s not good for the environment. That’s why some people considered making their own coins. These coins are known as Alt-Coins. i.e. Alternative Coins. Because they’re the alternative to Bitcoin.

 And they try to counter the disadvantages of Bitcoin. By some method or the other. Like Ethereum, Litecoin, I talked about them in the Alt-Coins video. You can watch them as well. The link will be in the description below. But after Alt-Coins had been developed, people realized that anyone can create their own coins. So some people started creating their own coins for fun.

 There were no advantages in their coins as compared to Bitcoins. They simply changed the name and created a new coin. Some scammers made their own coins as well. And fooled people to invest in their coins to drive the value of the coin After which the scammer would take back his investment and the people will suffer heavy losses while the scammer would walk away with a significant profit.

 This is known as a Pump and Dump scheme. So many people created their coins for fun. Some for scamming people others for absolutely no reason. It was only meant as a joke. These coins which were created for no reason they are often known as Shitcoins. Because they do not add any value to the world. They aren’t bringing about any improvement in the process. So they’re Shitcoins. 

Some people believe that Dogecoin is also a Shitcoin. The only difference is that the purpose of creating Dogecoin wasn’t to scam people it was only to prank people. It was only a joke. This Doge meme was at the peak of its popularity in 2013. Jackson Palmer, an Australian marketer and Billy Markus, a software developer at IBM developed this Dogecoin then. Palmer says that he thought up this idea as a joke. to combine the two most popular trending topics on the internet. Cryptocurrency and the Doge meme. 

The code of Dogecoin is based on Litecoin. Litecoin is an Alt-Coin that does have a few advantages over Bitcoin. Like lesser processing time and lower transaction fees. But it is truly surprising that the market valuation of Dogecoin has already surpassed that of Litecoin. If you look at the largest cryptocurrencies of the world Dogecoin coin has become the fourth-largest cryptocurrency. 

After Bitcoin, Ethereum and Binance. The biggest question here is how is it possible? How did a coin made as a joke gain such popularity? Why are people buying it? The first reason is the Reddit website. People on Reddit started using it as a joke initially. Whenever someone liked a post or comment on Reddit, people would award some Dogecoins to the OP as a tip. It was known as the DogeBot tip.

 Usually, this was a tip of 5 Dogecoins. And at the time the value of Dogecoin was 0.0002¢. It was a very small amount. But using Dogecoin as a tip started gaining popularity on Reddit. And this expanded over the years. Dogecoins were used so much and exchanged so many times that their value started increasing rapidly. 

In September 2018, the CEO of Tesla, Elon Musk noticed it. Elon Musk met Jackson Palmer on the issue of Twitter scambots. The fake Twitter accounts that scam people using the guise of cryptocurrency. Elon Musk wanted to take them down because his name was being used to run these scams.

 So he asked for Jackson Palmer’s help on this. That was when Elon Musk came to know about Dogecoin. After 7 months he tweeted “Dogecoin might be my fav(ourite) cryptocurrency.” In March 2020 he tweeted “Dogs rock. They are the best coins.” So in the coming months and years he tweeted about Dogecoin several times which were indirectly or directly promoting Dogecoin. 

And because Elon Musk is so famous, perhaps the most renowned and liked billionaire in the world, every time he tweeted, it sent up the value of Dogecoin by 25% – 50%. Eventually, 2021 followed 2020. And now the value of Dogecoin has exceeded 50¢. At its peak, Dogecoin had almost touched the valuation of $80 billion. 

Though its price has fallen a bit in the last couple of days, but the supporters of Dogecoin aim to drive its value up to $1. It means that the value of 1 Dogecoin would be equal to $1. Currently, it is around 50-60¢. 

Talking about the real-life use of Dogecoin, the community of Dogecoin have donated to several charitable causes. Their first donation was to a Jamaican Bobsleigh team of $30,000 in Dogecoins so that the team could participate in the 2014 Russian Winter Olympics. After this, for some water conversation projects in Kenya and for helping some special needs children, the community of Dogecoin donated money. 

And who are the community of Dogecoin? What do I mean by this? Basically, there is a subreddit on Dogecoin where the users who buy and promote Dogecoins come together and make such donations. But overall, friends, I’d say that Dogecoin has become a cultural trend now. It does not have a value of its own. 

It isn’t bringing in any significant technological advancement neither is it unique. Only because of its circumstances Dogecoin has become so popular now. And this is needed to be understood by those people that think that if they invest in Dogecoin now and they would get 10x, 100x, 1000x returns. That Dogecoin is a good investment. 

You need to understand the cultural trends grow exponentially. And die down after their peak. There is a very high possibility that this may happen. I’m not giving you any investment advice here. You can buy Dogecoin if you want to. I’m just saying that be cautious of the huge risk. 

But higher the risk in investment, there are more chances of high returns as well. It is possible that after a few years, Dogecoin may be valued at $100 instead of a paltry $1. But it is equally possible that its value may become 0 instead of the 0.50¢ now. 

All your investment may vanish. Because predicting cultural trends on the internet is next to impossible. You’d basically be trying to predict how the world would think collectively. I believe that the same thing applies to Bitcoin as well. You should invest only that much in Bitcoin that you can afford to lose. 

If Bitcoin crashes to 0 tomorrow, you would not suffer much even after all your investment vanishes. And Dogecoin is even riskier than Bitcoin. So this is even more valid for Dogecoin than it is for Bitcoin. At least Bitcoin has some value of its own. Because it presents a revolutionary technology. I

t presents an alternative monetary system. But it is not so with Dogecoin. But at the same time, also remember this, friends, that only those things have any value in the society, in which people believe. If people think that a thing should have value, it does. 

You can see this with so many things. If people think that branded clothes have value, then their value exists and people buy them at exorbitant prices. The same thing applies to Dogecoin as well. If every one of us starts believing that Dogecoin does indeed have a value even if there really isn’t any, people would want to buy it which would drive up its value.

 And what can be the reason behind it? Absolutely any reason. If someone claims that Elon Musk’s brand is attached to Dogecoin and it has a high value the same reason as with clothes. If a cloth is marked by a brand it has a high value. For the same reason, someone may say that Dogecoin’s value should be higher. 

If society starts believing this its value will grow. And if society doesn’t, its value will fall.

 Bit coin cash is a crypto currency, from a fork of Bit coin that was created in August 2017. Bit coin cash was created to accommodate a larger block size compared to Bit coin, allowing more transactions into a single block.

Later in November 2017 it split into 2 crypto currency

• Bit coin Cash ABC and
• Bit coin Cash SV (Satoshi Vision)

Despite their philosophical differences, both Bit coin and Bit coin cash share several similarities.

 1 BITCOIN CASH = 36683.18 INDIAN RUPEE

HISTORY OF BIT COIN TO BIT COIN CASH:

Bit coin was meant to be a peer-to-peer crypto currency that was used for daily transactions. But over the years it became an investment vehicle instead of a currency. Its block chain witnessed scalability issues because it could not handle the increased number of transactions. The confirmation time and fees for a transaction was urged. It’s due to 1MB block size limitation for bit coin which results in queued transactions.

As a remedy to this situation Bit coin cash was proposed by increasing the size of blocks to between 8 MB and 32 MB, thereby enabling more transactions per block. “Bitcoin cash is the version of bitcoin that implemented an increase in the transaction capacity,”

DIFFERENCE IN BIT COIN AND BIT COIN CASH:

• Unlike bit coin, bit coin cash uses a separate hash algorithm which eliminates the possibility of a replay between the two block chains.
• Bit coin is difficult to beat in terms of price when compared to bit coin cash.
• Bit coin cash is well ahead of bit coin in terms of transaction speed.
• Bit coin cash has lower transaction cost than Bit coin.

BIT COIN CASH IN INDIA:

Binance is one of the world’s largest and best known crypto currency exchanges. As an Indian trader, one can buy Bit coin cash on binance.

As per reports, Bit coin cash worth will rise to $2000 by the year 2025.Supply of Bit coin is limited to 21 million.

IS IT A GOOD INVESTMENT?

Investing in bit coin is like a roller coaster ride. Bit coin Cash offers the potential for otherworldly profit but at the same time it has high risks and crazy price swings.

CRYPTO CRASH:

According to Visual Capitalist, Bit coin has crashed 80% or more three different times since 2012. Therefore today’s crypto crash is nothing new. No one knows the future, so no one can say whether Bit coin is going up or down in the near term. However, it is good to say the odds are high that the price of Bit coin will be higher following the next halving event, which is expected in 2024.

If Bitcoin’s history teaches us anything, it’s to expect the unexpected. If Bit coin’s history teaches us anything, it’s to expect the unexpected. If you’re willing to hold a small position for the long term, then it is recommended to buy some Bit coin. But one mustn’t buy today hoping to get rich tomorrow.

 

A cryptocurrency is a form of digital asset based on a network that is distributed across a large number of computers. This decentralized structure allows them to exist outside the control of governments and central authorities. Dogecoin is a type of  cryptocurrency created by software engineers Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer, who decided to create a payment system as a joke, making fun of the wild speculation in cryptocurrencies at the time. It was initially released on December 6, 2013, and quickly developed its own online community, reaching a market capitalization of US$85,314,347,523 on May 5, 2021.

Dogecoin.com promotes the currency as the “fun and friendly internet currency”, referencing its origins as a joke. It further gained major popularity when  founder, CEO, and Chief Engineer at SpaceX and one of the richest person of the world – Elon Musk talked about it. Billy Markus was a IBM software engineer and Jackson Palmer was a Adobe Software engineer.

Palmer had purchased the domain Dogecoin.com and added a splash screen, which featured the coin’s logo and scattered Comic SanMarkus reached out to Palmer after seeing the site, and started efforts to develop the currency. Markus designed Dogecoin prototype based on other cryptocurrencies such as litecoin and Lucky coin using the scrypt technology in their proof-of-work algorithm.

On December 19, 2013, Dogecoin jumped nearly 300 percent in value in 72 hours, rising from US$0.00026 to $0.00095,with a volume of billions of Dogecoins per day. This growth occurred during a time when bitcoin and many other cryptocurrencies were reeling from China’s decision to forbid Chinese banks from investing into the bitcoin economy. But three days later its value dropped by 80%. 

 Dogecoin (DOGE) is a cryptocurrency that is taking the world by storm with over 129.5 billion coin in circulation. In 2013, Jackson Palmer and Billy Markus created this open source cryptocurrency as a sarcastic meme coin. Even though it was started as a joke, Doge’s blockchain still has a lot of merit as it is derived from Litecoin’s technology. Dogecoin can be merge mined with Litecoin, meaning miners can mine both cryptos simultaneously using the same work. Essentially, practically everyone who mines Litecoin chooses to mine Dogecoin as well, because merge mining Dogecoin increases profits. Dogecoin has the image of a Shiba Inu dog as its logo and has a loyal community of supporters who trade it and use it as a tipping currency for social media content. This group has banded together to support a variety of charitable endeavours and other ventures. They were also able to fund a NASCAR race.

Billy Markus thought that by branding it as a more lighthearted coin, it would have a greater chance of going mainstream, as opposed to coins like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Dogecoin’s casual presentation suited the mood of the burgeoning crypto community. Its scrypt technology and unlimited supply was an argument for a faster, more adaptable, and consumer-friendly version of Bitcoin. Dogecoin is an “inflationary coin,” while cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin are deflationary because there’s a ceiling on the number of coins that will be created. Although Dogecoin is nowhere near the scale of Bitcoin, the meme currency’s market cap has risen from more than $1 billion in early January to $47 billion in May according to CoinMarketCap.

Celebrities like Elon Musk and Snoop Dogg have been supporting Dogecoin, which is driving its price up. There are even rumours that Tesla will begin accepting dogecoin soon. Elon Musk’s tweets once even caused the price to rise from a 24-hour low of 0.062 dollars to 0.078 dollars, a 20% increase. A strange combination of factors, including Elon Musk’s apparent endorsement for the coin and overwhelming support from Robinhood dealers, has propelled Dogecoin into the mainstream. Many have even started calling Musk “The Dogefather”. DOGE liquidations topped Bitcoin (BTC) at one point during the market mania, demonstrating the asset’s great demand.

On a year-to-date basis, the token has climbed approximately 7,000 percent. DOGE achieved its all-time high of $0.73 on 8 May 2021, driven by Elon Musk as well as its cult following. At this rate it just might become a viable currency. Doge to the moon!
