$BTC Bitcoin (BTC) is the world's first decentralized cryptocurrency, created by Satoshi Nakamoto in 2009. It enables transparent and secure peer-to-peer transactions through blockchain technology, without relying on any central authority. The total supply of BTC is capped at 21 million, and its scarcity has led to it being referred to as "digital gold." With increasing global inflation pressures and declining trust in fiat currencies, more and more investors are viewing Bitcoin as a safe-haven asset. Currently, BTC has gradually moved towards the mainstream, being included in asset allocations by companies like Tesla and several other institutions.
