Digital Gold • Store of Value
Bitcoin is the world's first cryptocurrency and remains the most valuable and widely recognized digital asset. Created by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto, Bitcoin operates on a decentralized peer-to-peer network secured by proof-of-work consensus and cryptographic principles.
Bitcoin is a revolutionary peer-to-peer electronic cash system that operates without central authority. It was introduced in 2009 by the mysterious Satoshi Nakamoto through a whitepaper titled "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System."
As the first successful cryptocurrency, Bitcoin solved the double-spending problem using blockchain technology and proof-of-work consensus, creating truly scarce digital money with a fixed supply of 21 million coins.
Bitcoin's network is secured by miners who compete to solve cryptographic puzzles, making it the most secure blockchain in existence.
Anyone with internet access can send, receive, and store Bitcoin without requiring permission from banks or governments.
With only 21 million Bitcoin that will ever exist, it's designed to be deflationary and maintain value over time.
