What is it: This shows bitcoin's ROI vs other potential inflation hedge assets.

Why it matters: As with the historical bitcoin price table, we see bitcoin's extreme outperformance vs other assets here as well. Bitcoin's relatively small size, plus fundamental properties, yield extreme outperformance when even relatively small funds-flows find their way to BTC.

Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System

Filed under: topic icon technology  medium icon reports

Satoshi Nakamoto's 9-page whitepaper describes a novel approach for combining various existing cryptographic techniques in order to solve previously unsolved problems in digital money. Specifically, Satoshi solved both the "double spending problem", and issues pertaining to inflation and initial distribution of the money supply by creating novel incentive structures for participants in the system. This was as much a game-theory and human-incentivization breakthrough as it was technical insight.

This paper is both short, and fairly approachable even for non-technical audiences. A must read.

EXCERPT

Abstract. A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online
payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a
financial institution. Digital signatures provide part of the solution, but the main
benefits are lost if a trusted third party is still required to prevent double-spending.
We propose a solution to the double-spending problem using a peer-to-peer network.
The network timestamps transactions by hashing them into an ongoing chain of
hash-based proof-of-work, forming a record that cannot be changed without redoing
the proof-of-work. The longest chain not only serves as proof of the sequence of
events witnessed, but proof that it came from the largest pool of CPU power. As
long as a majority of CPU power is controlled by nodes that are not cooperating to
attack the network, they'll generate the longest chain and outpace attackers. The
network itself requires minimal structure. Messages are broadcast on a best effort
basis, and nodes can leave and rejoin the network at will, accepting the longest
proof-of-work chain as proof of what happened while they were gone.
