The AMA started smoothly tackling lightweight questions, such as "what is the Blockchain technology?" or "where is a Bitcoin stored?", (answer: "on every computer in the Blockchain network"), continuing with what a blockchain Node is and what does a Miner do. Other questions revolved around which Consensus algorithms does a blockchain network…
