Bitcoin (BTC) is the pioneer cryptocurrency launched by pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto in 2009. While Bitcoin remained an alien in the initial phase without much recognition, it soon emerged as a game changer that revolutionized the financial sector.

Bitcoin introduced the idea of a decentralized payment network that eliminates the need for a third party. Bitcoins are created, distributed, and stored on a decentralized ledger called blockchain. Leveraging the peer-to-peer (p2p) technology eliminates the presence of a central authority such as banks; bitcoin is open-source.

The smallest unit of Bitcoin is named by the inventor’s name- satoshi. Notably, 1 satoshi is 0.00000001 BTC. BTC has a maximum supply of 21 million tokens and the Bitcoin Halving event controls the rate at whch new tokens injected.

Bitcoin is not only known as a pioneer crypto, but it is also praised by many experts for its store of value and is considered a hedge against inflation. Read more on CryptoTale to learn how Bitcoin influences the crypto market and the global economy.
