FAQ

Originally the term "FAQ" referred to the Frequently Asked Question itself, and the
compilation of questions and answers was known as a "FAQ list" or some similar expression.

Bitcoin (BTC) is the first known and decentralized cryptocurrency created by an unrevealed person or group called Satoshi Nakamoto in 2009.

The concept of Bitcoin lies in the opportunity for peer–to–peer transactions of digital money with no need for any middle party like banks. These transactions are processed by network nodes and recorded in blockchain – digital and public ledger.

Bitcoins are unable to be printed as FIAT money; they are mined and do not have a physical form. Mining is a process of adding transaction records to the blockchain; or, in simple terms, working–out computationally–difficult problems by сomputer software.

Bitcoin mining is limited; in fact, only 21 million Bitcoins exist. These 21 million can be used for different purposes; the main one stays the same – purchasing things online without any governmental or economical monitoring.
Ethereum (ETH) is a software blockchain-based platform that keeps immediate reports of digital transactions. Ethereum was produced by Vitaliy Buterin and his team in 2015.

This platform does not involve any central maintenance or securing authority, and allows only “smart contracts” – highly programmable digital money for peer-to-peer transactions running without any contribution of a third party.

As a payment method, Ethereum blockchain platform recognizes only Ether – native Ethereum cryptocurrency, also called “digital oil/fuel,” the second digital currency after Bitcoin.

The price of ETH as the price of BTC also depends on public supply and demand.

There are some rules you need to know :
  1. Use strong passwords or password generators and keep to the maximum of 16 characters. Don’t rely on word combinations you’ve used before, neither make a password from your or your children birthdays, names of family members etc. These types of passwords are usually the first to be compromised and breached.
  2. Do not store anything in an unprotected document. Store bitcoin-related passwords separately from each other. Keep an eye on your wallet and keep your passwords in secure locations. You can use software that helps to store passwords under one master password.
  3. Keep your software up to date. Always update firmware and keep your antivirus updated.
  4. Hackers mainly use attractive slogans in their emails or links for hacking purpose. So do not open or click on such links. Do not open shady links or expose your password through links in emails.
