$BTC

Bitcoin (BTC) is the world’s first and most well-known cryptocurrency, created in 2009 by an unknown person or group using the name Satoshi Nakamoto. It operates on a decentralized peer-to-peer network using blockchain technology, allowing secure and transparent transactions without the need for banks or intermediaries. Bitcoin is limited to 21 million coins, making it scarce and often compared to digital gold. It is widely used for investment, payments, and as a hedge against inflation. Despite price volatility, Bitcoin has gained global acceptance and continues to influence the future of finance, serving as the foundation of the entire crypto ecosystem.
