What is BTC?
Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency that has rapidly risen to prominence since its inception in 2009. Recognised as an innovative payment method that provides efficient, transparent and secure transactions, Bitcoin pioneered blockchain technology, which forms the foundation of its network. Today, Bitcoin is the most popular digital currency in the world, accounting for more than half of the total digital currency market in terms of market capitalization.

Mission
Bitcoin was created with the view of establishing a peer-to-peer, censorship-resistant global financial network. As a distributed system with no single point of failure, Bitcoin is grounded in the principles of decentralization that promote the freedom of money through the circumvention of intermediaries.
Team
Founded by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto, the Bitcoin protocol is maintained in a decentralized fashion by developers and contributors throughout the world. Though attempts have been made at uncovering the identity of the creator(s) of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto’s true identity remains unknown.

FAQs
Why does Bitcoin have value?
As with other currencies throughout the centuries (gold, silver, paper money), BTC has value because it has the characteristics of money: durability, portability, fungibility, scarcity, divisibility, and recognizability. Unlike previous forms of money, however, Bitcoin relies on mathematics rather than central authorities or physical objects. In short, BTC has value because people are willing to accept BTC as payment.
