P2P bitcoin
unlike all currencies, bitcoin does not rely on a specific currency institution to issue. It is generated by a large number of calculations based on a specific algorithm. Bitcoin economy uses a distributed database composed of many nodes in the whole P2P network to confirm and record all transactions, and uses cryptography design to ensure the security of all aspects of currency circulation. The decentralized nature and algorithm of P2P can ensure that it is impossible to artificially manipulate the value of bitcoin through mass proction. The design based on cryptography can make bitcoin only be transferred or paid by the real owner. This also ensures the anonymity of money ownership and circulation transactions. The biggest difference between bitcoin and other virtual currencies is that the total amount of bitcoin is very limited and it has a strong scarcity.

anyone can participate in bitcoin activities, which can be issued through computer computing called mining. The number of bitcoin protocols is capped at 21 million to avoid inflation. Bitcoin is used as a digital signature through the private key, which allows indivials to pay directly to others. It is the same as cash, and does not need to go through third-party institutions such as banks, clearing centers, securities dealers, electronic payment platforms, so as to avoid high fees, cumbersome processes and regulatory problems.

the central network system with a central server can be described in the following figure:
and the P2P network can be understood in the second figure. The P2P network can be understood in the second picture
different from the central network with central server, each client in P2P network is a client node and has the function of server. An important goal of P2P network is to enable all clients to provide resources, including bandwidth, storage space and computing power. The capacity of such a network can be much larger than that of a network with a central server. In the network of central server structure, every time you add a client, it means that the data transmission speed of all users will be reced, but P2P network will not
The robustness ofP2P network is much better than that of the central server network. Because as long as there is a problem with the central server, the whole network will collapse. However, if any client of P2P network has problems, the whole network still works normally
