Apa itu Bitcoin?

<h3>Bitcoin Basics</h3>
Bitcoin is the first digital asset / cryptocurrency that uses blockchain technology to ensure all transactions are secure and immutable. When people say the word "Bitcoin", there are two different things the word "Bitcoin" might refer to: Bitcoin the digital asset (BTC), and Bitcoin the blockchain.
<h3>Properties of Bitcoin (BTC) as digital asset</h3>
As a digital asset on the blockchain, Bitcoin (BTC) is entirely digital without any physical form. BTC is global because it lives natively in the internet. You can send any amount of BTC to anyone in the world 24/7, just like sending email to someone. BTC is scarce, because there will only ever be 21,000,000 BTC in existence. Bitcoin is also divisible - you can send someone as small as 0.00000001 BTC.
<h3>Bitcoin Blockchain as decentralized ledger</h3>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-3560 size-large" src="https://blog.pintu.co.id/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/decentralized-1024x512.png" alt="" width="1024" height="512" />
Before the invention of Bitcoin, you need trusted central entity (banks) to process monetary transactions digitally. This is because in the digital world, it's easy to copy data, but hard to ensure something is spent / used up. When you send money to your friend electronically, your bank needs to deduct your account balance, and your friend's bank need to add the same amount to his/her balance. Both of you trust the banks to record the correct account balances for you.
However, with the invention of Bitcoin and its blockchain technology, you can send Bitcoin to anyone in the world without the need of banks. Instead of having a centralized 3rd party to process your transaction, all Bitcoin transactions are processed and secured by 10,000+ bitcoin servers/nodes running bitcoin program that is distributed all around the world. Anyone can run a Bitcoin node/server since the code is open source, and each server records all transaction history and synchronizes the latest transaction data between every other nodes.
<img class="alignnone wp-image-3537 size-full" src="https://blog.pintu.co.id/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Screenshot-2020-10-23-171834-1.png" alt="" width="1293" height="747" />
Bitcoin nodes / servers are distributed all around the world. Data from <a href="https://bitnodes.io/">https://bitnodes.io/</a>
The Bitcoin Blockchain is a decentralized ledger that replaces the need for centralized book-keeper (banks). The bitcoin Blockchain records every single bitcoin transaction that has happened since the birth of Bitcoin (4 January 2009) until now. The ledger is decentralized because the transaction data/blocks are stored in 10,000+ bitcoin nodes (servers) all around the world. Each Bitcoin nodes act independently of each other, and unlike banks, there is no central server that stores data. In fact, all Bitcoin nodes store the same Bitcoin transaction history from 4 January 2009 until now. All nodes are also equal and permission-less - there is no central server, and anybody with an internet connection and 400GB+ storage capacity can run a Bitcoin node by simply downloading the open-source installer from <a href="https://bitcoin.org/en/download">https://bitcoin.org/en/download</a>.
<h3>Bitcoin miners validate transactions and receive new Bitcoin as reward.</h3>
Bitcoin nodes that participates in validating transactions are called miners. Bitcoin mining is the process of verifying validity of bitcoin transaction and solving a very hard computational puzzle, called 'proof-of-work'. Miners basically verifies unprocessed transactions in the bitcoin blockchain, transforms it into a "block" of transaction, and spends electricity to solve the computational puzzle. The miner who manages to form a valid block of transaction complete with the solution to the puzzle will receive bitcoin as reward. This process repeats for roughly every 10 minutes, and that's why Bitcoin transaction typically takes 10 minutes to settle.
<h3>Bitcoin supply is scarce and capped at 21 million BTC</h3>
The total supply of Bitcoin is capped at 21,000,000 BTC by the bitcoin code. As of October 2020, 18,500,000 BTC has been mined, leaving us with about 2,500,000 BTC left. Miners currently receive 6.25 BTC for every block mined, which means there is 6.25 new BTC that enters circulation every 10 minutes. However, every 4 years, the bitcoin code/protocol will reduce this mining reward by half (called 'halving'). In 2024, miners will only receive 3.125 BTC per block, and in 2028, miners will only receive 1.56 BTC per block (and so on). Based on calculation, the last Bitcoin will be mined in the year 2140 - and it is getting scarcer every 4 years.
<h3>Bitcoin transactions are secure and immutable</h3>
All Bitcoin nodes constantly communicate with each other to form majority consensus (51%+ agreement) to agree on the latest transaction history of the Bitcoin blockchain.
The entire Bitcoin transaction history from its inception are stored and secured by cryptography into blocks of transactions that are chained to each other (hence the technology is called "blockchain"). You can see the latest state of Bitcoin blockchain from websites such as <a href="https://www.blockchain.com/btc/blocks?page=1">https://www.blockchain.com/btc/blocks?page=1</a> as shown below.
<img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3536" src="https://blog.pintu.co.id/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Screenshot-2020-10-23-171834-300x115.png" alt="" width="300" height="115" />
Screenshot from <a href="http://blockchain.com">Blockchain.com</a> taken on 9 October 2020, 9PM WIB.
As you can see from the screenshot above, the "Height" is the bitcoin blockchain number. Through the use of cryptography, Block #651963 is chained to #651962, which is chained to #651961, and so on.
<img class="size-medium wp-image-3561 aligncenter" src="https://blog.pintu.co.id/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/miner-300x150.png" alt="" width="300" height="150" />
Thanks to the blockchain structure, if a malicious miner (let's name it X) tries to alter any transaction data on an old block (let's say Block #650100), that malicious miner needs to recalculate the computational puzzle from that old block (#650100) to the latest block (#651963). This is very energy and time-intensive. Not only that, due to the chain structure of blockchain, altering any data on old block (#650100) will change the "hash" (a cryptographic summary) of ALL subsequent blocks (#650100 to #651963).
What this means is that even if miner X manages to recalculate every computational puzzle, other miners can simply inspect the "hash" of any block between #650100 to #651963 and notice that Miner X has altered old transaction data. As a result, other miners will simply not trust X's version of bitcoin transaction history, because X is caught manipulating old transaction data.
Simply put, to manipulate or alter old transaction history of Bitcoin blockchain, you need to basically control 51% of all bitcoin nodes at the same time, and recalculate the answer to every computational puzzle that is altered after. This is practically impossible to do. That is why Bitcoin is very secure, and all transactions are immutable - nobody can ever alter or "cancel" any bitcoin transaction.

What is Bitcoin and Blockchain?

What is Bitcoin?

Faktor Harga Crypto

Just like stock or commodity prices, Crypto is an investment instrument whose value is volatile (unstable) and tends to be unpredictable. While there is no definite way to predict the crypto price 100%, there are several things that can affect the crypto price:
<h3>Supply vs Demand</h3>
The price of crypto is basically influenced by its demand and availability in the market.
As an example :
The demand for bitcoin in the market is on the rise, but the availability of sellers is not able to meet the demands of buyers in the market. Thus, the price of bitcoin goes up, because demand is higher than availability. Likewise, when the market wants to redeem bitcoin into cash then its availability floods the market. Thus, the price of bitcoins will fall, as there are more sales than purchases.  
&nbsp;
<h3>Utility</h3>
The price of crypto moves up when the crypto is widely used, and it will decrease when the crypto starts to be deserted and abandoned by its users.
As an example :
Currently, Project DeFi is starting to be built a lot on the Ethereum blockchain. This caused many DeFi project actors need Ether (ETH), a native Ethereum coin, as a gas fee to pay for computation fees on the Ethereum blockchain to all ethereum Miners. Since many needed ETH, the price of ETH went up.  
<h3>Fear and Greed</h3>
Psychological factors, namely fear and public greed also affect the price of crypto.
As an example :
The price of bitcoin began to move up after a long period of no significant movement. This will result in the public becoming greed and buying more bitcoins to increase their profits. Because the demand for bitcoin in the market is increasing, the price of bitcoin is also increasing. When it started touching the highest price, many players took profits by selling their bitcoins and it caused the price to start falling. The price that moves down causes fear to the public. Usually the public are afraid if the value of bitcoin will continue to fall. This fear made them sell their bitcoins, and bitcoins are increasingly flooding the market. Because bitcoin is increasingly flooding the market, the price of bitcoin is dropping even further.  
<h3>The Price of Stablecoins Will Always Follow the Backing Assets</h3>
The stablecoin will follow the price of the asset that is the backing of the stablecoin.
As an example:
Tether (USDT) is a stablecoin with US Dollar backing. Thus, the price of one tether will always follow the US Dollar exchange rate. If the current dollar exchange rate was IDR 14,700, then the price of 1 USDT would not be far from that exchange rate. *The above factors are for information only.

Several Factors that Can Affect the Crypto Price

Mengenal Crypto

<h2>Crypto Introduction for Beginners</h2>
Cryptocurrency is a digital asset that sits on top of the blockchain system. Crypto assets can be used for internet-based transactions. Cryptocurrency uses cryptography and blockchain technology to verify every transaction so that neither party can double-spend (spend the same asset twice in a digital world *) *.
Since the blockchain technology became the solution to the double-spending problem, many new digital assets have sprung up on the blockchain. For example; Bitcoin, Ethereum, and others.
Each of these assets can be traded &amp; transacted globally and 24/7. The exchange rate of each asset is determined by the supply &amp; demand of the trading market participants.
Let's discuss some types of digital assets further:
<h2>Types of Cryptocurrencies:</h2>
There are many cryptos circulating in the market, such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Binance Coin, Tether, and so on. But broadly speaking, there are two types of crypto, namely native coins and tokens.
<h3>Native Coin</h3>
<img class="wp-image-3438 alignnone" src="https://blog.pintu.co.id/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/coin-300x300.png" alt="" width="197" height="197" />
Native coins can be mined like a metal commodity
The native coin is a digital asset/coin that was created simultaneously with the creation of a blockchain itself. For example, Bitcoin (BTC) is a native coin circulating on the Bitcoin blockchain, and Ether (ETH) is a native coin on top of the Ethereum blockchain.
In general, to increase the number of native coins in circulation, these native coins need to be "mined" like a metal commodity. In the crypto world, mining is the activity of validating, processing, and securing transactions in a decentralized manner. "Miners" who successfully carry out the process will receive a reward in the form of native coins from the blockchain system. Bitcoin blockchain miners will receive BTC, and Ethereum blockchain miners will receive ETH.
The value of a coin on the market is determined entirely by supply and demand. If more people use it (eg for investment or other means of exchange of value) more than what available in the market, then its value will increase.
On the contrary, if more coins are sold than buyers, the value will decrease.
All transactions on the blockchain require real coins as fees that are paid to miners. For example, if you want to send BTC on the bitcoin blockchain, you have to pay the miners a fee in BTC. If you transact on the Ethereum blockchain, you have to pay the miner's ETH.
<h3> </h3>
<h3>Token</h3>
<img class="wp-image-3439 alignnone" src="https://blog.pintu.co.id/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/token-300x300.png" alt="" width="245" height="245" />
Tokens are like securities in the digital world
In the crypto world, there are certain blockchains that allow programmers/developers to create applications (smart contracts) and new digital assets (tokens) on top of the blockchain. One of the most popular blockchains for developing applications and tokens is Ethereum.
Tokens are cryptos that are issued "hitchhike" as projects on other blockchain platforms (eg Ethereum). Tokens are issued for specific purposes and the amount can be adjusted by the token developer.
Tokens can be digital securities, stock representations (security tokens), or be used to provide access to a function (utility token) such as cellular pulses used to make calls.
One form of token application is the issuance of stablecoin. Stablecoins are issued as a form of digital representation of the original assets that support them. The original assets are kept by the developer.
Examples of stablecoin are:
<ul>
<li>Rupiah Token (IDRT) - a stablecoin worth 1 Rupiah.</li>
<li>Tether (USDT) / USD Coin (USDC) - **** stablecoin is worth 1 US Dollar.</li>
<li>Digix (DGX) - a stablecoin worth 1 gram of gold.</li>
</ul>

Mengapa Investasi Bitcoin

<h3>Bitcoin has limited supply, making it rare and similar to digital gold</h3>
Many investors buy and hold Bitcoin because they believe Bitcoin to be a scarce asset like gold, because the total supply of Bitcoin is limited by the Bitcoin code to be 21,000,000 BTC.
As explained in <a href="https://pintu.co.id/faq/apa-itu-bitcoin-dan-blockchain/">Apa itu Bitcoin dan Blockchain?</a>, Bitcoin miners that help process transaction is rewarded new Bitcoin. As of October 2020, miners currently receive 6.25 BTC for every block mined, which means there is 6.25 new BTC that enters circulation every 10 minutes. However, every 4 years, the bitcoin code/protocol will reduce this mining reward by half (called 'halving'). In 2024, miners will only receive 3.125 BTC per block, and in 2028, miners will only receive 1.56 BTC per block (and so on). Currently, about 18,500,000 BTC has been mined, leaving us with about 2,500,000 BTC left. Due to continuous halving, the last Bitcoin will be mined in the year 2140 - and it is getting scarcer every 4 years.
<h3>Bitcoin speculatively can be better store of value than gold</h3>
Many Bitcoin investors believe that although Bitcoin price is volatile right now, in the long run (4+ years) Bitcoin can be an even better store of value than gold. There are several properties that make Bitcoin potentially a better store of value than gold:
<ol>
<li>Divisibility: If you have 1 bar of gold, it is very hard to divide that gold into smaller pieces for small transaction. However, if you have 1 BTC, you can send someone as small as 0.00000001 BTC.</li>
<li>Ease of transaction: Gold is heavy, hard to carry around, and dangerous to transport. However, you can send anyone in the world any amount of Bitcoin within 10 minutes.</li>
<li>Security of storage: Gold is easily stolen, and to securely store large amount of gold, you need to spend considerable security measures (i.e. safe deposit box, security camera, etc). On the other hand, you can store any amount of Bitcoin in secure hardware wallets (the size of USB stick) such as Ledger or Trezor.</li>
<li>Network Effect &amp; Price Appreciation: Gold is already a mature / old asset class, and the room for price growth is limited. Bitcoin is a relatively younger asset class, and because it lives on the internet, it benefits from network effect: the more people use Bitcoin, the faster the value / demand for Bitcoin will be.</li>
</ol>
<h3>Some Investors buy Bitcoin as long-term investment and protection against money printing.</h3>
Since the big financial crisis of 2008, developed economies' central banks (such as Federal Reserve of USA and European Central Bank) has been engaging in money printing (called "Quantitative Easing") to help stimulate each of their countries' economies. It is estimated that Federal Reserve (USA) prints $1.2 trillion USD in 2008, and $3 trillion USD in 2020 (<a href="https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/bst_recenttrends.htm">https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/bst_recenttrends.htm</a>). The Fed prints money digitally, as noted by Fed Chairman Jerome Powell on the video clip below. Because of money printing, some investors worry that USD will devalue in the long term, and thus they want to invest in scarce assets which supply cannot be inflated, such as Gold and Bitcoin.
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrjoElG8KGI">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrjoElG8KGI</a>
<h3>Traders Trade Bitcoin to make quick profit</h3>
While long-term investors choose to buy and hold bitcoin, short-term traders love to buy and sell bitcoin daily or weekly. Because Bitcoin price is volatile and the market is open 24/7, experienced traders can enter and exit a bitcoin investment within a few hours, days, or weeks. Traders use advanced techniques such as technical analysis, market sentiment analysis, and other tools to make quick profit in the short term.
