Are quantum computers gonna wreck Bitcoin? I’ve been reading about how cryptographic algorithms could be broken and that really freaks me out. Seems…

Hey everyone. Got a quick question about bitcoin transactions. If I send 1 bitcoin from my 10, does it create three entries? Like one for spending,…

What’s up with these clock-like values? Can we find more of them? Also, can we hit values like 2 or 3 in five or seven moves? I’m curious if we can…
