Blockchain Demystified | Daniel Gasteiger | TEDxLausanne 

Mine too. The claim that it can't be hacked, controlled centrally, or BitCoins duplicated, makes me suspicious. I was hoping this would explain how such an impossibility might be possible.

bang on.

Also "Bitcoin: The End of Money as We Know It" is a great doc that's puts in all in to context.

That's not what was offered or suggested by the title. It's not a technical talk and he doesn't discuss specific implementations of the block chain principle. However, said principle(s) are clearly enumerated in the talk. Don't write it off as useless just because you wanted to be spoon-fed and are too lazy to invest something into understanding the key point of the talk.

i dont mean to be offtopic but does anybody know of a method to get back into an instagram account..? I somehow forgot my password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me

Right? Gives himself away as a dilettante.

No. He has a whistling dry booger stuck in his nose. Hence, the importance of sound checks!

Hear me now, believe may later!

maybe - but clearly not a native English speaker. Public speaking in your own language is pretty hard, let alone in a foreign one.

He is from Switzerland, german speaking part.

all transaction data is stored on all network nodes. It is easy to run such a node on a home computer.

I thought it was blockchain and not blackchain.

thought I heard that wrong...confirmed now Namamoto

No, Satoshi Nakamoto is the Pseudo name of the Inventor. No one Knows who is the Original Owner of Bitcoin.

You wrote that: I participated in this discussion, I could not have been more disappointed! Only vague blah blah blah with no real content to the discussion! ..... Very poor personal presentation and you seriously need a lot more practice in front of an audience to be convincing. It's not a discussion! There is a lecture. If you know what it is. He tells just how it is. And may become. That is how he explains what Blockchain is. Although you obviously do not get it. I do it anyway. And yes, he's probably not as comfortable speaking before a large audience. But for the need one can not be shitty. As you huh.

Actually Annie, firstly I did not say " I participated in this discussion" please take the time next time to read comments properly as I said I attended the talk, and perhaps check your synonyms for lecture:= talk, speech, address, discourse, disquisition, presentation, oration, lesson, recitation, monologue, sermon, etc etc..... so yes I do know what a lecture is. Secondly I also know what Blockchain is but given that I have no need to explain it to you because you say you already know. Good for you!! so very happy for you!! "I do it anyway"...what does that mean, what is this "it" you refer to? ...." But for the need one can not be shitty. As you huh" No idea what this is supposed to mean, this sentence in English makes little sense. If you are referring to my comment about personal presentation then, I stand by what I said, the presentation was poor, both content and personal. Yes everyone has to start somewhere but please not with a TED talk. I am certainly not "shitty" I just did not think his presentation was any good, it "demystified" nothing. I learnt nothing and found him difficult to understand. He mumbles and if his unshaven appearance and scruffy clothes were supposed to make him look like some cool techie dude, it was a waste of time. My opinion, for which I am entitled to, as you are to yours. Perhaps you would best not to focus on what I wrote and focus on your own comments before you post them. I am sure you will take umbrage at my comments but should you feel the need to reply further, please don't bother, I will be deleting it. It's not worth any further energy. I wish you nevertheless a nice day.

did you just leave or down-vote as well? Because, if you did down-vote I Would like to ask you why. just curious .
