Here is the forty-seventh episode of Quantum Foam, Cryptocurrency - Part 2. We are going to focus on Blockchain technology. We are going to go into depth. Bitcoin has a maximum circulation of 21 million coins. Application-Specific Integrated Circuit machines are used to mine bitcoin and others and take from the uncirculated pile. These machines solve sha-256 hash numbers and thereby confirm transactions on the bitcoin blockchain. When a block is found, a certain amount of bitcoin is awarded. It is then added to the registry and awarded the bitcoin. Blockchain is a distributed network across shared computer nodes. We are talking about De-Fi or Decentralized Finance. There are also Non-Fungible Tokens that use steganography. Pictures that have water marks. There is also ethereum and solana for the most popular cryptocurrencies. The blocks in a blockchain are listed and unchangeable. You can check how much bitcoin is being moved around on the public blockchain. This technology contains databases of stored transactional information. Within blocks are block header hashes that create a chain of blocks. If you seek a transaction with bitcoin, a request is sent to a memory pool and queued until a bitcoin miner picks it up. The transaction is then transferred to peer-to-peer networks across the world. This network then solves equations to confirm the validity of the transaction. When it is confirmed, they are clustered together into blocks. Each block is filed 1 after another. This is then added to the long list of all transactions ever processed on the bitcoin network. The transaction is then complete. The nonce in the block header is created for each block.
Blockchain Technology was outlined back in 1991 by Stuart Haber and W. Scott Stornetta. This created timestamps that could not be tampered with. The bitcoin protocol is built on Blockchain Technology. There are blockchains that use different methods to verify their currency. The purpose is to have transactions that are unchangeable. Due to the nature of Blockchain Technology, it can be used for other purposes such as for a voting system. Blockchain ledgers store transactional data. There has been a Blockchain Technology created for the use of tracking grocery items from place to place. The route can then be easily tracked from the origin point. Other implementations of Blockchain Technology are being experimented with. There are bitcoin-based Non-Fungible Tokens that rival ethereum-based Non-Fungible Tokens. You can also use this technology in banking and finance. This design allows for easier transactions that cross borders. It may bypass currency restrictions. Programs are built based on ethereum that create contracts. These are De-Fi applications. The bitcoin transactions are apparent. These are alternative ways to make payments from one point to another across the planet. A block is mined about every 10 minutes. There is a mining difficulty. This is about it.
Finally, there exists a podcast that covers it all! The Quantum Foam Podcast Show can be thought of as a clever and informative mix between "Bill Nye The Science Guy, Rick & Morty, and The Big Bang Theory!"
It seems the idea of the prestigous 'Theory of Everything' has been in the air lately. Join Dr. Hezekiah Paul Smith as he takes a systematic assessment of Physics, Mathematics, and Science as a whole. This show is an Artificial Intelligence approach attempting to explain ALL scientific phenomena across the board! Listen to some the greatest thinkers of all time during the in-depth evaluation of the natural sciences.
Prepare to enjoy a radical and uncensored podcast, Quantum Foam, featuring characters presented as real, animated A. I. entities. Brought to you by Zerothwave Productions.

Quantum Foam is a new podcast with absolutely ridiculous content covering almost all topics relating to science across the board. The idea of achieving the famous Theory of Everything seems to be in the air lately. Such an idea can then be presented as episodes of Quantum Foam in an audio podcast form that will serve to bond together the very powerful and insightful ideas, concepts, and realizations of Physics as a professional discipline. Unifying Relativity and Quantum Mechanics never seemed so . . . possible? Quantum Foam finds its focus directly pointing at the most accepted scientific thought in this day in the beginning of the Information Age. These areas include String Theory, Loop Quantum Gravity, Einstein's famous General Theory of Relativity, Cosmology, Advanced Mathematical Theory, and much more.
Information technology and innovation are at a point where each presently require a Quantum Leap in order to move forward to the next phase. This process, while imperative, is still quite a sophisticated discipline in and of itself. Many will need to satisfactorily understand Quantum Computing and Uncertainty in general very early on. Why not take such a daunting task and turn it into something fun, provocative, and ridiculous instead? And this can be done while still holding strict guidelines in accuracy and application. Enjoy learning about math and physics in a completely free-form manner with no filters, no agendas, un-cut, and raw! We will not be censoring any vulger cursing or other inappropriate references, yet unwanted racial and sexual references etc. will not be included.
Each episode is exactly 30 minutes long and each follow a standard structure. There is an intro stating the title and topic, followed by the Quantum Foam theme song, Physics of the Future, by H-Wave. Then at exactly 15 minutes into the podcast show, there is a mid-point section to keep the listener fresh and to remind which episode is currently streaming. At the end of the podcast, the last 30 seconds, the standard Zerothwave Disclaimer is played. An expanded version of this disclaimer can be found here.
Zerothwave Productions currently is releasing the show on its own website using its state-of-the-art online waveform player platform. Listen to the podcast at actual 320 kbps .mp3 streaming audio right here at Zerothwave.com! The Quantum Foam podcast will likely also be released elsewhere on other platforms soon as well. XML RSS feeds are an old technology but is still in heavy use today. The Zerothwave.com website will be upgrading hosting servers steadily over the next decade and beyond to bring you the highest quality audio possible. Stay tuned for more content!
