BITCOIN BTCUSDTBitcoin / Tether USDKRAKEN:BTCUSDTShavyfxhubBitcoin (BTC) is the world's first decentralized digital currency (cryptocurrency). It is digital money that exists only online. No banks, governments, or companies control it. It was created in 2009 by an unknown person (or group) using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. Key Features of Bitcoin: Fixed Supply: Only 21 million Bitcoins will ever exist (this scarcity is one of its biggest strengths). Decentralized: Runs on a global network of computers (blockchain) — no single point of failure. Blockchain: A public, transparent ledger that records every transaction. It is extremely secure and nearly impossible to hack. Mining: New bitcoins are created through a process called mining (computers solve complex mathematical problems). Halving: Every 4 years, the reward for mining is cut in half (this reduces new supply over time). Why Bitcoin Matters: Store of Value — Often called “Digital Gold” because of its scarcity and independence from governments Bitcoin is the largest cryptocurrency by market value and is widely accepted by institutions, companies, and governments. #BITCOIN
