$BTC

Bitcoin (BTC) is the first and most well-known cryptocurrency, created in 2009 by an anonymous individual or group known as Satoshi Nakamoto. It operates on a decentralized blockchain network, enabling peer-to-peer transactions without the need for banks or intermediaries. Bitcoin is limited to 21 million coins, making it a scarce digital asset often referred to as "digital gold." It is widely used for investment, trading, and as a store of value. Bitcoin’s price is highly volatile, influenced by market demand, regulations, macroeconomic trends, and institutional adoption. As the crypto market matures, Bitcoin continues to lead as the flagship digital currency.
