11 | Intro | |
12 | ----- | |
13 | Bitcoin is a free open source peer-to-peer electronic cash system that is | |
14 | completely decentralized, without the need for a central server or trusted | |
15 | parties. Users hold the crypto keys to their own money and transact directly | |
16 | with each other, with the help of a P2P network to check for double-spending. | |
