What is Bitcoin?
Bitcoin (BTC) is the world's first and largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. Created in 2009 by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto, Bitcoin introduced blockchain technology and the concept of decentralized digital money — a peer-to-peer electronic cash system that operates without banks or governments.
Bitcoin has a hard-capped supply of 21 million coins, making it inherently deflationary. Its supply schedule is governed by the Bitcoin halving— a programmatic event that cuts new supply in half every four years, driving Bitcoin's historically bullish long-term price trajectory.
Bitcoin Key Facts
Store of Value
Bitcoin is widely called 'digital gold' due to its fixed supply, scarcity, and store of value properties compared to inflationary fiat currencies.
Institutional Adoption
Since the US Bitcoin ETF approvals in January 2024, institutional capital has flooded into Bitcoin — fundamentally changing its market structure.
Lightning Network
The Bitcoin Lightning Network enables fast, cheap microtransactions, making BTC increasingly usable as a medium of exchange, not just store of value.
Global Acceptance
Bitcoin is accepted by thousands of merchants, held by public companies, and recognized as legal tender in El Salvador — its global adoption continues to grow.
