$BTC $BTC In short: The undisputed king of crypto!
🧠 Who invented it?
A person (or group) with the mysterious name Satoshi Nakamoto in 2008, with the aim of creating "money without intermediaries".
🔗 How does it work?
A decentralized network that relies on blockchain – a tamper-proof digital ledger distributed across thousands of computers.
⛏️ Mining?
Powerful machines solve mathematical problems to secure the network and are rewarded with new Bitcoin – but the reward halves every 4 years (the Halving).
💸 The supply is limited!
Only 21 million bitcoins will be mined, and after that? Not a single additional Satoshi 🔥 (meaning: scarcity = value)
