Bitcoin ($BTC) is the pioneering cryptocurrency that has revolutionized the world of finance. Launched in 2009 by an anonymous entity known as Satoshi Nakamoto, Bitcoin operates as a decentralized, peer-to-peer digital currency that allows users to send and receive payments without the need for intermediaries like banks. Bitcoin transactions are secured through blockchain technology, ensuring transparency, immutability, and security.
As the first cryptocurrency, Bitcoin has grown from an experimental digital asset into a global financial phenomenon. Its limited supply—capped at 21 million coins—adds to its appeal as a store of value, often being compared to gold. Over the years, Bitcoin has gained widespread adoption, with institutions, retail investors, and even governments beginning to recognize its potential.
