Turning Bitcoins into the Best-coins

In this paper we discuss Bitcoin, the leader among the existing cryptocurrencies, to analyse its trends, success factors, current challenges and probable solutions to make it even better. In the introduction section, we discuss the history and working mechanism of Bitcoin. In the background section, we develop the ideas that evolved in the process of making a stable cryptocurrency. We also analyze the survey matrices of the present day cryptocurrencies. This survey clearly shows that Bitcoin is the clear winner among its kind. Section 3 is about the success factors of Bitcoin and the proceeding sections are a discussion about current challenges which pose as hurdles in making Bitcoin a better currency in the digital world. We finally discuss the balance between anonymity and reduced trust in the cryptocurrency world, before concluding the survey.
