$BTC or Bitcoin, is the world’s first and most valuable cryptocurrency by market capitalization. Created in 2009 by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto, it operates on a decentralized blockchain network, enabling peer-to-peer transactions without intermediaries. Bitcoin is often viewed as “digital gold” due to its limited supply of 21 million coins and its use as a hedge against inflation. It has gained mainstream acceptance with institutional adoption, ETF approvals, and integration into global financial systems. Despite price volatility, $BTC remains a dominant force in the crypto space, driving innovation and serving as a benchmark for the entire cryptocurrency market
