Why is Bitcoin so difficult to understand? Its underlying blockchain technology, decentralized nature, and encryption-heavy security measures all seem incredibly complex. Even for those with a strong grasp of finance and technology, Bitcoin often poses challenges in grasping its fundamental principles and practical applications. Could you elaborate on the complexities that make Bitcoin such a difficult concept to grasp? What are some of the key factors that contribute to its perceived difficulty, and how can newcomers begin to demystify this digital currency?
