TD₿: Bitcoin, Not Crypto | Hard Money (a video) by Swan Studios
TL;DR The differences between proof-of-work vs. proof-of-stake
Hey Bitcoiners,
In the latest Hard Money the talented Natalie Brunell explores the fundamental value proposition of Bitcoin, and what sets it apart from other so-called “cryptocurrencies.” It’s a deep dive into the differences between proof-of-work vs. proof-of-stake consensus mechanisms and why Bitcoin is honest, sound money, and other cryptos are a recreation of the existing fiat system.
Bitcoin, not crypto!
