About Bitcoin (BTC)

Bitcoin is one of the most popular cryptocurrencies in the market. First introduced in 2009 by Satoshi Nakamoto, Bitcoin has held the crypto market’s number one spot according to market capitalization. Bitcoin paved the way for many existing altcoins in the market and marked a pivotal moment for digital payment solutions.  

As the world’s first cryptocurrency, Bitcoin has come a long way in terms of its value. However, one does not have to buy an entire bitcoin as bitcoins can be divided into small units called satoshis, named after the creator. A satoshi is equivalent to 0.00000001 bitcoin.

There is no physical BTC token so you can think of bitcoin as digital money. Bitcoin transactions are fully transparent and can’t be censored. You can send money to anyone in the world with ease. It’s a financial system backed by thousands of computers, known as ‘nodes’, around the world, instead of a single central bank or government, i.e. hence the term ‘decentralization’. 

Bitcoin Upgrades

Because Bitcoin is decentralized and community-driven, many upgrades to Bitcoin come in the form of formal proposals called Bitcoin Improvement Proposals, or BIPs. This ensures that the software is always undergoing upgrades that can further contribute to the community’s needs. Anyone can propose a BIP, and the community will reject or approve of the BIP collectively. One major upgrade to Bitcoin’s consensus protocol is the SegWit Upgrade, proposed in BIP 141 and designed to help the bitcoin scale to support more transactions to meet growing demand. BIPs like these change Bitcoin’s consensus rules, resulting in forks. 

Bitcoin Forks

Forks are the points where software is copied and modified, resulting in two chains with a shared original chain. There are two types of forks–soft and hard forks. Soft forks are upgrades that still allow un-upgraded nodes to interact with upgraded nodes. Hard forks are upgrades that do not allow un-upgraded nodes to interact with upgraded ones. Bitcoin Cash is an example of a hard fork of Bitcoin.

Because Bitcoin is decentralized, it is not subjected to inflation or any monetary policies created by any central banks or government. Instead, there will only ever be 21 million BTC in existence.

Common Bitcoin Misconceptions 

Bitcoin is just a passing phase.

Bitcoin and blockchain technology introduce solutions for real-world issues, seeking to help the unbanked population, combat counterfeiting and improve cross-border transactions to name a few. Even if we disregard the notion of bitcoin as a speculative asset or store of value, it is likely here to stay and disrupt many sectors.

Bitcoins can be copied and pasted, making them easy to counterfeit.

No, thanks to the Bitcoin protocol, your bitcoin cannot be copied. The word ‘crypto’ in ‘cryptocurrency’ comes from the word ‘cryptography’, a technique that allows for secure communication, meaning that it is impossible to counterfeit bitcoin, unlike fiat. In fact, Bitcoin solves the issue of double-spending, a loophole in traditional digital cash that allows a user to spend the same amount of funds twice.

Bitcoin is bad for the environment.

A significant percentage of bitcoin mining uses renewable energy (wind, solar, hydro etc) instead of traditional energy sources that are bad for the environment. 

How Does Bitcoin Halving Affect Bitcoin’s Price?

Bitcoin halving occurs approximately every four years, where the rewards given to Bitcoin miners for mining blocks are cut in half. Halving was built into the Bitcoin protocol to maintain its value as a deflationary currency. By reducing the amount of new bitcoins, the protocol aims to prevent the devaluation of Bitcoin over time, which often happens with inflationary currencies.

Historically, Bitcoin's price has tended to increase in the months leading up to halving, as investors and traders anticipate a supply shock. After halving, the price may continue to rise if demand remains strong and outstrips the reduced supply. Other factors such as market sentiment, regulatory developments, and global events can also impact the price of Bitcoin. Follow our Bitcoin Halving Countdown to know how Bitcoin halving works.

  2. What is the All-Time High and All-Time Low of BTC?

    Bitcoin's all-time high and low prices are driven by its supply and demand dynamics.

  3. How is the Bitcoin Price Determined?

  6. Why Do Bitcoin Price Changes Impact Other Coins?

  7. How Secure is Bitcoin?

    Bitcoin is secured with a Proof-of-Work (PoW) mechanism,  which means millions of miners work together to secure the decentralized network. Each miner keeps a record of all transactions. Forcing a transaction is impossible because they would have to control 51% of all miners. 

  8. What is Bitcoin Mining?

    Bitcoin mining is the process where miners contribute the processing power of their hardware rigs to solve cryptographic puzzles from each transaction on the Bitcoin blockchain.  Miners receive BTC for solving cryptographic puzzles, and transactions are recorded in blocks that get added to the blockchain.

Bitcoin Profit-Taking Transfers Spike As BTC Breaks $27,000
On-chain data shows the Bitcoin profit-taking volume has shot up after the cryptocurrency’s price briefly broke above the $27,000 level.Bitcoin Observes 2.4 Times As Many Profit Transfers As Loss OnesAccording to data from the on-chain analytics firm Santiment, this profit-taking level has not been seen since December 2020. The relevant indicator here is the “ratio of daily on-chain transaction volume in profit to loss,” As its name already suggests, it measures the ratio between the Bitcoin volume of profit-taking transactions and that of loss-taking ones.This metric tells us whether there is more profit harvesting in the market than loss realization or not right now. The indicator has a positive value if the profit volume is higher. Otherwise, it’s negative.The indicator works by going through the on-chain history of each coin being sold/transferred to see the price at which it was last moved. If this previous selling price for any coin was less than the BTC value right now, then this particular coin moved at a profit, and thus, its transaction is counted under the profit volume. Similarly, if the last price exceeds the latest value, the coin’s sale contributes to the lost volume.Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the ratio of daily on-chain transaction volume in profit to a loss for Bitcoin, as well as for Ethereum, over the past year:The above graph shows that the Bitcoin profit-to-loss volume ratio has been entirely elevated in the last few days. With the latest surge in the price above the $27,000 level (which only lasted briefly before the coin fell back under the mark), the indicator has seen an even sharper spike.In this surge, the metric has attained a value of about 1.4, suggesting that the profit-taking transaction volume is around 2.4 times more than the loss-taking one. This indicator level is the highest since December 2020, when the 2021 bull run was in its initial stages.This high-profit volume would suggest that investors fear drops right now, and hence, they rushed to harvest some profits as soon as the price broke above the $27,000 level. The selling pressure from these profit-takers was likely behind the pullback to the $26,000 level.The chart shows that Ethereum’s profit-taking volume has also risen significantly in the last few days. Still, the cryptocurrency is only observing the highest value of the indicator since the middle of 2023, and only a bit further back than is the case for Bitcoin.BTC PriceAt the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading around $26,800, up 34% in the last week.
