$BTC

Bitcoin (BTC) is a decentralized digital currency created in 2009 by an anonymous person or group known as Satoshi Nakamoto. It operates without a central authority or government, using a peer-to-peer network and blockchain technology to record transactions securely and transparently. Bitcoin is limited in supply to 21 million coins, making it scarce and often compared to digital gold. Users can send and receive BTC worldwide with low fees and no need for intermediaries. It’s used for investment, online purchases, and as a hedge against inflation. Despite its volatility, Bitcoin has significantly influenced the world of finance and cryptocurrency.
