The Blockchain & Bitcoin - Computerphile

- Blockchain is the underlying technology behind cryptocurrencies bringing together Merkle trees, Hashing & Distributed Architecture. Christopher Ellis explains.
Note1 - At 6:46 when Chris is drawing the Merkle Tree, C would actually be duplicated and hashed with itself not with B. So you would get H(C - C) instead of H(B - C).
Note2 - At minute 17, Christopher mentioned the mining reward halving at 21,000 bitcoins but meant 210,000 blocks.

This is the best block chain 101 video I've seen. Most often people explaining it don't sound like they understand what they're endeavoring to describe.
Best, most technically understandable explanation of the blockchain that I have ever heard.
I salute a fellow stereotypical nerd
It's interesting that the people criticising this guy's pronunciation can't post simple comment using correct spelling and grammar.
This guy is brilliant. Finally someone who explained so clear with good enough knowledge but accessible for anyone who is not in the world of cryptocurrency and blockchain technologies.
He looks so nervous I want to give him a hug. Perfectly explained though
I feel this would have been easier to understand if they had gone over version control system before this
This video actually explained it to me. thank you. many podcasts and blogs have failed, but the whole public private key explanation made it click! thanks
Thanks for /finally/ taking the time to make a in-depth video about Bitcoin/Blockchain on Computerphile!
Out of all the vague explanations about blockchains and cryptocurrencies available out there.. this is the best I have seen and most technically explained, and in a very short time.
Each block is 12.5 Bitcoins right now, not 6.
His shirt is killing the antialias when you play it in a small window
I have seen multiple simplified explanations of bit coins, the block chain and, mining and never understood it. Thank you Computerphile!
I already understood the components of this, but a clear brain-to-mouth presentation made it make sense (fully-ish). Thanks.

OMG hadn't seen dot matrix paper in more than 15 years, nearly cried :)
The block reward is halved every 210,000 blocks (about 4 years), not every 21,000 bitcoins.
Omg, you have no idea how useful this video is and how perfectly timed it is. I am applying for an apprenticeship at IBM and I researched Blockchain as it is one of their big things at the moment. This is exactly what I needed to learn further about it. THANK YOU!
This is by far the best explanation of the system that I have heard yet. The ending of the video was rather sobering however. An hour or more to have a verified transaction is way too long for much of the world's trading, especially when we still have to pay a fee for the transaction.
This guys is very good at explaining the system Good job!
