$BTC 🤑Bitcoin is digital money that works without banks and governments. It was created by a person (or group of people) under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto in 2009. The feature of Bitcoin is decentralization: there is no single center that controls everything. All users participate in supporting the network themselves.
Transactions are recorded in blocks, which are linked in a chain - this is the blockchain. To add a new block, computers around the world solve complex problems. This is called mining. For this, miners receive a reward - new bitcoins.
