UBC Nakamoto 101 Sessions: 10. Privacy
Channel: Chelsea Palmer
Date: 10/12/2020

This is the tenth session in "Nakamoto 101," a series of short videos breaking down the main concepts from the 2008 Bitcoin Whitepaper in laypeople's terms. 

This series is a Fall 2020 collaboration between University of British Columbia's Bitcoin & Blockchain Club and Vancouver nonprofit Carpe Lunam Events Association, with the sessions prepared and presented by Chelsea Palmer and Alex Salkeld, and corresponding discussion groups led by Zakir Suleman.


This tenth video covers the Privacy section of Satoshi Nakamoto's Bitcoin whitepaper. This section of the whitepaper addresses how identity is kept private in traditional finance systems, and how it would need to be proactively protected by users of this money system using publicly announced transactions.


Get in touch with Chelsea Palmer with any questions or suggestions, or feel free to leave them here via comments. This is intended as a living, growing project, and if we get enough suggested tweaks to a given section, we may re-record it.
