Title:VIRTUAL CURRENCIES AND FINANCIAL DECENTRALIZATION: THE CASE OF BITCOIN (in English)
Volume:6
Issue:2
Abstract:
Virtual currencies in general, and Bitcoin in particular, are currently the most used and famous compared to other circulated cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin is considered one of the currencies that has been fully implemented. A cryptocurrency is a decentralized peer-to-peer virtual currency. Exchange operations between users are conducted without resorting to a bank to manage the transactions. This explains one of the major advantages offered by this system: low costs or low transaction fees, which are much lower than those provided by banks in terms of modern and traditional payment methods. To ensure the validity of transactions and the dissemination of this type of money, encryption technology is used.
