$BTC

Bitcoin (BTC) is the first and most well-known cryptocurrency, created in 2009 by an anonymous person or group known as Satoshi Nakamoto. It operates on a decentralized, peer-to-peer network using blockchain technology to enable secure and transparent transactions without the need for intermediaries. BTC is often seen as digital gold, valued for its limited supply (21 million coins) and potential as a store of value and hedge against inflation. It is widely traded and has become a key asset in the crypto market.
