Bitcoin (BTC) is a decentralized digital currency that operates without a central authority, such as a government or financial institution. It was created in 2008 by an anonymous person or group of people known as Satoshi Nakamoto and introduced as an open-source software in 2009. BTC operates on a peer-to-peer network, allowing transactions to be made directly between users without intermediaries. These transactions are verified by network nodes through cryptography and recorded in a public distributed ledger called the blockchain. Bitcoin's scarcity (only 21 million coins will ever be mined) and its decentralized nature have made it a popular store of value and investment asset, often referred to as "digital gold." Due to its volatility, Bitcoin has gained significant attention from traders, investors, and governments worldwide. #Bitcoin #BTC
