Bitcoin (BTC) is known as the first open source peer-to-peer digital cryptocurrency that was developed and launched by a group of unknown independent programmers named Satoshi Nakamoto in 2008. Cryptocoin does not have any centralized server used for its issuance, transactions and storage, as it uses a distributed network public database technology called blockchain, which requires an electronic signature and is backed by a proof-of-work protocol to provide the security and legitimacy of monetary transactions. Bitcoin issuance is carried out by users with mining capabilities and is limited to 21 million coins. Currently, the market capitalization of Bitcoin is over $138 billion and this is the most popular type of digital currency. The purchase and sale of cryptocurrencies is available through ATMs or special Bitcoin exchange platforms.
