摘要：Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency that has gained popularity over the last decade. The scheme of itsimplementation does not call for a trusted third party to validate the coins spent or the currency made.Therefore, Bitcoin has been developed to grant users the privilege of purchasing anonymously andperforming other transactions while not going through a financial institution. In this paper, we review thechallenge of keeping the identities of Bitcoin users anonymous while maintaining secure payments. Morespecifically, we present double-spending, a security attack, in fast payments and examine some of thecounterattack initiatives taken to protect payments in Bitcoin.
