What's Bitcoin?
Bitcoin is a cryptographic currency, based on peer-to-peer technology. You can generate your own coins by having your computer calculate hashes. A constant bitcoin "lottery" determines who gets the coins. If you have a good graphics card it'll increase the speed that you can generate hashes, and therefore the probability that you win/get the money. Your computer can generate coins in the background or overnight. You can then sell your Bitcoin and get regular money. |
