Building the Blockchain / Building the Blockchain
"Digital money can be copied, creating the danger that a person will spend the same token more than once. Satoshi Nakamoto addressed this problem by creating a public, decentralized ledger that records credits, debits, and balances rather than relying on the physical security of a currency token. The blockchain allows a network to determine which transactions are legitimate and prevents later attempts to spend an already-used balance."
