Bitcoin
Bitcoin is a digital currency that operates on a decentralized peer-to-peer network. It is a form of cryptocurrency that is not backed by any government or financial institution. Bitcoin transactions are recorded on a public ledger called the blockchain, which is maintained by a network of computers called nodes.
Bitcoin was created in 2009 by an individual or group of individuals operating under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. Since then, it has become one of the most popular and widely used cryptocurrencies in the world.
