What is bitcoin and how did it come about? What are the limitations of blockchain and how did that drive the evolution of other cryptocurrencies? What are the security considerations and the infrastructure of technologies around cryptocurrencies? What is the ecological impact? What is next for the cryptocurrencies from an adoption and technical perspective?
