Kinda like how in Pokemon Red, you can use a gameshark to give yourself 999999 money. Can you do the same for bitcoins, but irl? >_>

I would assume it's theoretically possible, but good luck seeing it happen in your lifetime

You can hack the block chain generating you one block worth of bitcoins, and you'd have to hack it again for every time you steal one block and every time you do it the difficulty increases exponentially.

This is called mining.

Cheers.
