Bitcoin is the original cryptocurrency, introduced by an anonymous entity under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. It operates on a decentralized proof-of-work system, meaning that miners compete to validate transactions in exchange for newly minted bitcoins. Bitcoin is known for its security, decentralization, and limited supply of 21 million coins. It is widely used for value storage and peer-to-peer transactions across the globe, with many businesses and individuals accepting it as a form of payment or store of value.
