$BTC #BTC Basics
Bitcoin (BTC) is the first and most well-known cryptocurrency, launched in 2009 by the mysterious Satoshi Nakamoto. It operates on a decentralized blockchain, allowing peer-to-peer transactions without intermediaries like banks. BTC is often seen as "digital gold" due to its limited supply (21 million coins) and store-of-value properties. It’s traded globally 24/7, with prices driven by demand, adoption, regulation, and market sentiment. BTC can be used for payments, held as an investment, or traded for profits. Its high volatility makes it risky but potentially rewarding. Always DYOR (Do Your Own Research). #BTC #CryptoBasics #Bitcoin101
