Default Bitcoin 101

Anybody here want to be the professor and educate us from ground level? Data mining to earn a coin? What constitutes the value of that coin? Buying a percent of a coin? A couple of years ago Bitcoin was around 17k, today it's at 47k!

I've spent considerable time just trying to understand this concept but can't seem to grasp it.

Holding a bitcoin in your hands means what, exactly?
