#BTCOutlook Bitcoin (BTC) is the world's first decentralized digital currency, introduced in 2009 by Satoshi Nakamoto. It allows for peer-to-peer transactions without the need for intermediaries like banks. Bitcoin's decentralized nature and limited supply of 21 million coins have contributed to its popularity and volatility. Transactions are recorded on a public ledger called the blockchain, ensuring transparency and security. As the first and most widely recognized cryptocurrency, Bitcoin has paved the way for the development of alternative cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology. Its value can fluctuate rapidly.
