What is Bitcoin?

Bitcoin (BTC) was one of the first cryptocurrency ever created, and over a decade later, it’s still arguably the most well-known. Launched in 2009, it introduced the idea of digital money that isn’t controlled by any bank or government. Instead, Bitcoin runs on a decentralized network in which transactions are recorded on a public blockchain — transparent, secure, and independent. The origin of Bitcoin is still a mystery. It was created by an anonymous person (or group) using the name Satoshi Nakamoto, who published a white paper in 2008 explaining how it would work. The idea was to build a financial system that didn’t rely on trust in institutions but instead on cryptography and decentralized technology. In 2009, Nakamoto mined the first Bitcoin block—the Genesis Block. Not long after, they disappeared, leaving Bitcoin in the hands of its community. Unlike many newer cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin has its own blockchain rather than being built on another platform like Ethereum. One of its defining features is that there will only ever be 21 million BTC — a fixed supply that prevents inflation. At present, 19,844,146 Bitcoins are in circulation. This scarcity is why its proponents compare Bitcoin to “digital gold” and use it as a store of value. Bitcoin adoption has grown steadily. Some businesses accept it for payments, institutional investors hold it, and El Salvador even made it legal tender. While it’s not the fastest or most feature-rich cryptocurrency, upgrades like the Lightning Network are improving its usability. Bitcoin may not be perfect, but it has paved the way for the entire crypto industry—and it’s still a major player in the evolving world of digital finance.

Bitcoin (BTC) halving is an event that reduces the reward for mining new blocks by half, making it more scarce over time. Halvings continue until the maximum supply of 21 million BTC is reached. By reducing the rate at which new BTC enters circulation, halvings historically impact Bitcoin’s price and mining dynamics, reinforcing its deflationary nature and potential as a store of value.

Bitcoin halving occurs approximately once every four years. The most recent one was on April 20, 2024, at block height 840,000, reducing the mining reward from 6.25 to 3.125 BTC per block. The next halving is projected for April 17, 2028, at block height 1,050,000, further decreasing the reward to 1.5625 BTC per block.
