$BTC Bitcoin – The Pioneer and Market Leader
Bitcoin, the original cryptocurrency, remains the most well-known and widely used digital asset. As the first blockchain-based currency, it paved the way for the entire crypto revolution. With a limited supply of 21 million coins, Bitcoin has established itself as a store of value and "digital gold," especially during economic uncertainty.
Despite the growth of other cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin remains the largest by market capitalization, and its dominance is unlikely to wane anytime soon.
Often seen as a hedge against inflation, it’s favored by institutional investors looking for safe exposure to crypto. The introduction of Bitcoin ETFs and increasing regulatory clarity have solidified BTC's place in mainstream finance.
