BTC stands for Bitcoin, the first and most widely recognized cryptocurrency. Launched in 2009 by an anonymous creator using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto, Bitcoin enables peer-to-peer digital transactions without the need for intermediaries like banks or governments.
Bitcoin operates on a decentralized network called the blockchain, which is a public ledger that records all transactions. This system ensures transparency and security, as each transaction is verified by network nodes through cryptography.
The total supply of Bitcoin is capped at 21 million coins, making it a deflationary asset. Its value is determined by market demand and supply dynamics.
Bitcoin is often viewed as a store of value, similar to gold, and is used for various purposes, including investment, remittances, and as a hedge against inflation.
