Bitcoin ($BTC ) is the world’s first and most popular cryptocurrency, created in 2009 by an anonymous figure known as Satoshi Nakamoto. It operates on a decentralized network called blockchain, meaning no government or bank controls it.

Bitcoin is often called “digital gold” because of its limited supply (21 million coins) and its role as a store of value. It allows fast, secure, and borderless transactions, making it a key asset in the global crypto market.
