SCRYPT - COLD STORAGE - HALVING - DOGECOIN - BITCOIN - PROOF OF WORK - RIPPLE - DIGITAL ASSET - MARGIN CALL - MULTI-SIGNATURE -

in #steem7 years ago


SCRYPT multi-signature addresses provide (by requiring more than one key to authorize a transaction) an added layer of security.
COLD STORAGE an exchange will issue a margin call when it feels that a trader does not have sufficient funds to cover a leveraged trading position. the act of calling in a margin requirement.
HALVING compared to sha256, this is quicker as it does not use up as much processing time. scrypt is a type of cryptographic algorithm and is used by litecoin.
DOGECOIN gained a broad international following and quickly grew to have a multi-million dollar market capitalization. features a japanese fighting dog as its mascot. an altcoin first started as a joke in late 2013.
BITCOIN these wallets are known as “cold wallets”. this could be in the form of a hardware wallet, usb stick or a paper wallet. the safest way to store your private keys is by keeping them offline in “cold storage”.
PROOF OF WORK the final halving will take place in the year 2140. the total amount of bitcoins that will ever be issued is 21 million. the number of bitcoins generated per block is decreased 50% every four years and is called halving. bitcoins have a finite supply, which makes them a scarce digital commodity.
RIPPLE the more ‘work’ you do or the more computational power you provide, the more coins you are rewarded with. a consensus distribution algorithm that requires an active role in mining data blocks, often consuming resources, such as electricity.
DIGITAL ASSET payments are made using a series of ious, and the network is based on trust relationships. the network consists of payment nodes and gateways operated by authorities. is a payment network built on distributed ledgers that can be used to transfer any currency.
MARGIN CALL bitcoin is the first decentralised, open source cryptocurrency that runs on a global peer to peer network, without the need for middlemen and a centralised issuer. strictly, bitcoin with a capital “b” refers to the protocol & the network, whilst bitcoin with a lowercase “b” is the currency. bitcoin can refer to the protocol, network or the unit of currency.
MULTI-SIGNATURE data that do not possess that right are not considered assets. digital assets include but are not exclusive to: digital documents, audible content, motion picture, and other relevant digital data that are currently in circulation or are, or will be stored on digital appliances. anything that exists in a binary format and comes with the right to use.
