Bitcoin (BTC) is the world’s first and most popular cryptocurrency, launched in 2009. It was created to enable peer-to-peer transactions without the need for banks or intermediaries. Built on blockchain technology, Bitcoin ensures secure, transparent, and decentralized transactions. Today, BTC is often called “Digital Gold” because many people see it as a long-term store of value and a hedge against inflation. Its limited supply of only 21 million coins makes it unique and highly valuable.
