About Bitcoin
Bitcoin is the first and largest cryptocurrency by market cap. Many stackers view Bitcoin as "digital gold" — a scarce, decentralized store of value.
- Created in 2009 by pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto
- Hard-capped supply of 21 million coins
- New supply halves roughly every 4 years (halving events)
- Secured by proof-of-work mining consuming ~150 TWh/year
- Often compared to gold as a store of value and inflation hedge
