Bitcoin is an amazing digital currency used by millions around the world. Bitcoin isn't just another way to buy stuff, though. It's a revolutionary technology that functions without the oversight of a central authority or government. Bitcoin has a lot of other upsides, too -- it's frictionless, anonymous, and cryptographically secure. Many predict that Bitcoin will radically transform the global economy. It's not hard to see why -- the value of a bitcoin has soared from less than a dollar in 2011 to well over $1000 and back down again, with many spikes and crashes along the way. Its dramatic rise has brought Bitcoin into the public eye, but the cryptocurrency isn't exactly easy to understand.
