About Bitcoin

Buyers usually pick Bitcoin over a stablecoin when the goal is long-term exposure rather than a fixed value: the capped 21 million supply, the four-year halving schedule that periodically cuts new issuance, and the absence of any single issuer are the three mechanics most first-time buyers ask about before funding an order, unlike a dollar-pegged token whose supply an issuing company controls directly.

The first and largest cryptocurrency in the world, created in 2009 by Satoshi Nakamoto.

Launched 2009
Creator Satoshi Nakamoto, a pseudonym that has remained anonymous to this day
