Bitcoin FAQ

What is Bitcoin (BTC)?

Bitcoin (BTC) is a decentralized digital currency created in 2009 by an anonymous developer or group known as Satoshi Nakamoto. It operates on a peer-to-peer network, enabling direct transactions without intermediaries. All transactions are recorded on a public, immutable ledger called the blockchain, ensuring transparency and security.

How does Bitcoin mining work?

Bitcoin (BTC) uses a proof-of-work consensus mechanism. Miners compete to solve cryptographic puzzles to validate transactions and add new blocks to the blockchain. The first miner to solve the puzzle receives newly minted bitcoins and transaction fees. This process secures the network, prevents double-spending, and introduces new BTC into circulation at a predictable rate.

The BTC token serves as a medium of exchange and a store of value. It can be used for online purchases, cross-border remittances, and as an investment asset.

BTC transactions are pseudonymous and irreversible, providing financial sovereignty to users.

How does Bitcoin differ from traditional currencies?

Bitcoin (BTC) differs from traditional fiat currencies by being decentralized and not issued by any central bank. Its supply is algorithmically capped at 21 million, preventing inflationary overproduction.
