Understanding Public Keys and How They Receive Bitcoin
Public keys are cryptographic identifiers that let others send bitcoin to you. They derive from private keys and enable secure, verifiable transactions without revealing your secret key.
How Bitcoin Transactions Are Logged on the Blockchain
bitcoin transactions are grouped into blocks, verified by miners, and linked cryptographically. Each block references the previous one, forming a transparent, tamper-resistant public ledger.
How Bitcoin Transactions Work: Addresses and Private Keys
bitcoin transactions transfer value using addresses and private keys. Addresses receive funds; private keys authorize spending. Transactions are signed cryptographically and recorded on the blockchain.
