We use elliptic curve digital signature algorithms to define electronic cash as a chain of digital signatures. This is a compressed version of Justin Moons video “ECDSACoin”. You should really check out Justins content because he has a great approach to teaching the basics of bitcoin. However his videos are almost 50 minutes each and I thought I make a compressed version so that you can decide if you really want to check them out or not!
