From the material, novice users will learn how to transfer bitcoins to another wallet. The procedure is not complicated, but you need to understand the mechanism of transactions and some nuances.

Features of the transfer of cryptocurrency

Digital coins are created as an alternative to traditional money. By analogy with bank accounts, cryptocurrency represents state records in the blockchain – a distributed network.

Wallets are used to access the assets. These are special programs that store secret keys.

When a cryptocurrency wallet is created, a public address is also generated. This is an identifier that can be transferred to another user to transfer funds. Usually in wallets it is specified in the form of a string of code and QR. To send cryptocurrency to a counterparty, you need to copy or scan the identifier, specify the number of coins and start the transaction.
