There have been a lot of great talks on the possibilities of Bitcoin and blockchain technology. Concepts such as "distributed ledger" and immutability are used. While this is great and allows our imagination to run free, it may leave us somewhat confused on what exactly a blockchain is and how it works under the hood (the concept of "blockchain" was fuzzy to me for the longest time).
In this talk, I will try to explain blockchain fundamentals, from a technical, low-level, point of view; starting with how hash functions work up to the concept of a blockchain itself. Hopefully, the talk will clear some doubts and raise new, more interesting, ones.
