Title: introduction
Post by: Tuna on January 24, 2012, 04:30 am
hey guys, im tuna from a site called waytoomany.com, just want to say i love what is being done here, decentralized currency being traded and reputation still holds up.

i just have one question that i need answered before i go to bed thinking about it all night,

i understand bitcoin as a currency. but i do not understand how "solving an elaborate mathematical problem" creates these blocks.

i am not interested in learning how to mine bitcoins, or "get rich quick" by learning how to mine bitcoins, but i just want to know how to obtain them.



thanks guys,
