# 比特币 —— 初露锋芒的区块链

**之所以看得更远，是因为站在了巨人的肩膀上。**

作为区块链思想的源头，比特币项目值得区块链技术爱好者们仔细学习和研究。

比特币网络是首个得到大规模部署的区块链平台，也是首个得到长时间实践检验的加密货币实现，无论在科技史还是金融史上都将具有十分重要的意义。比特币项目在诞生和发展过程中，借鉴了加密货币、密码学、博弈论、分布式系统、控制论等多个领域的技术成果，可谓博采众家之长于一身，是集大成者。

后来的区块链技术应用已经超越了加密货币的范畴，但探索比特币项目的发展历程和设计思路，对于深刻理解区块链技术的来龙去脉有着重要的价值。

本章将介绍比特币项目的来源、核心原理设计、相关的工具，以及关键的技术话题。
