Excuse me, I'm a bit confused about this new concept called 'Bitcoin'. Could you please explain what it means? I've heard about it being a type of digital currency, but I'm not entirely sure how it works or why it's becoming so popular. Could you break it down for me in a simple, understandable way? Also, could you tell me about its potential risks and benefits? I'm interested in learning more about this area but I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed with all the information out there.
