I would never had thought that bitcoin would take me on a journey into life long and continuous learning. I am always amazed by the level of knowledge myself and my peers have been exposed to since we invested in bitcoin. Our non-technical background hasn't stopped me from stretching myself to learn about the universe of discipline that is embedded in bitcoin.
Understanding market trends has made me dabbled into probability and statistics. The concept of 21 million bitcoins supply cap has pushed me to learn and understand more about economics. The law of scarcity, supply, demand and the concept of money. My journey into bitcoin has lead me to learn about computer science while trying to understand how blockchain works, peer-to-peer networks. I have been also able to learn about on-chain analysis through using transaction data to make prediction of the market and public sentiments. I have likewise been able to gather knowledge in relation to bitcoin concepts like signatures, keys, hashes, wallets. These fall under cryptography that plays a huge role in safeguarding our bitcoin transactions. I will not fail to mention how because of bitcoin I have taken a dive into the world of finance, through learning how bitcoin can help improve the problems faced by financial system and well as bringing about financial freedom. Lastly, I have been able to learn how Bitcoin protocol leverages game theory to ensure network security.
Please note that I don't know it all but I can have a light conversation on each of this disciplines in respect to bitcoin.
Thank you Bitcoin.
