Bitcoin isn’t just a currency — it’s a financial rebellion coded into existence. Born from the ashes of the 2008 economic collapse, Bitcoin challenged the trust we place in banks and governments. Unlike traditional money, no single entity controls it. Instead, millions of machines worldwide validate each transaction, securing the network through cryptography. With only 21 million coins ever to exist, Bitcoin creates digital scarcity like never before. Critics call it a bubble; believers call it the future. It’s volatile, yes — but so is innovation. Whether it becomes a global standard or remains a symbol of resistance, Bitcoin has already changed how we think about money, power, and freedom.
