Bitcoin
Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency invented in 2008 by an unknown person or group of people using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. It came to life in 2009 when it was released as open-source software.

Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency without a central bank or single administrator that can be sent from user to user on the peer-to-peer bitcoin network without the need for intermediaries. Transactions are verified by network nodes through cryptography and recorded in a public distributed ledger called a blockchain. Bitcoins are created as a reward for a process known as mining. They can be exchanged for other currencies, products, and services. Bitcoin provides a store of value and a method of transaction.
