$BTC

Bitcoin (BTC) is the world’s first and most well-known cryptocurrency, created in 2009 by an anonymous individual or group using the name Satoshi Nakamoto. It operates on a decentralized, peer-to-peer network using blockchain technology, which records transactions transparently and securely. Bitcoin is not controlled by any government or financial institution, making it appealing to those seeking financial autonomy. Its limited supply of 21 million coins adds to its value proposition, often likened to digital gold. BTC is used for investment, remittances, and increasingly as a means of payment. However, its price is highly volatile, influenced by market demand, regulations, investor sentiment, and global economic conditions.
