Understanding

Bitcoin

(BTC)

Bitcoin operates on blockchain technology, a distributed ledger that records all transactions. Its decentralised nature means that it's not controlled by any government or central authority. Instead, a global network of nodes validates and secures transactions, making it highly resistant to censorship and fraud.

Bitcoin's limited supply of 21 million coins has driven its value and made it a sought-after digital asset for both investment and as a medium of exchange. It has also paved the way for thousands of other cryptocurrencies, collectively known as altcoins.

Bitcoin's creation, fueled by the 2008 financial crisis, aimed to provide an alternative financial system outside traditional banking. It has since evolved into a global phenomenon, gaining recognition from major financial institutions and governments.

As you venture into the world of cryptocurrency, it's essential to understand the technology and principles behind Bitcoin. While it's price can be highly volatile, Bitcoin's underlying blockchain technology has far reaching potential beyond just digital currency. It has applications in supply chain management, voting systems, and much more.
