About Bitcoin

Bitcoin is the world's first and largest cryptocurrency by market capitalisation. Created in 2009 by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto, Bitcoin introduced the concept of a decentralised, peer-to-peer digital currency secured by cryptographic proof rather than trust in a central authority.

Bitcoin operates on a proof-of-work blockchain, where miners compete to validate transactions and earn newly issued BTC as a reward. Its fixed supply of 21 million coins — enforced by code — makes it the first credibly scarce digital asset in history. Approximately 19.7 million BTC have been mined to date.

Institutional adoption has accelerated dramatically since the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in January 2024, with BlackRock, Fidelity and Ark among the largest holders. Corporate treasuries including MicroStrategy, Tesla and Marathon Digital have adopted Bitcoin as a reserve asset. Many analysts compare Bitcoin to digital gold — a store of value and inflation hedge for the digital age.

Bitcoin's four-year halving cycle, in which mining rewards are cut in half, has historically preceded major bull markets. The most recent halving occurred in April 2024, reducing the block reward to 3.125 BTC.
