$BTC
Bitcoin (BTC) is the first cryptocurrency that was created and remains the most well-known and valued in the world of cryptocurrencies. It was launched in 2009 by a person or group of people under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. Bitcoin operates on a technology called blockchain, which is a digital and decentralized ledger, meaning it is not controlled by any government or financial institution.
One of the most interesting features of Bitcoin is that its total supply is limited to 21 million coins, giving it a deflationary nature and differentiating it from traditional currencies that can be issued in unlimited amounts. Many people see Bitcoin as a form of investment, a store of value, or even as an alternative to traditional currencies in certain contexts.
