What is Bitcoin?
Bitcoin is a decentralized cryptocurrency first described in a 2008 whitepaper by an individual or group using the alias Satoshi Nakamoto. It was launched shortly thereafter, in January 2009. Bitcoin operates as a peer-to-peer (P2P) online currency, meaning that all transactions occur directly between equal and independent participants, without the need for any intermediary to authorize or facilitate them. According to Nakamoto, Bitcoin was created to enable "online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution." While earlier concepts for decentralized electronic currencies existed, Bitcoin holds the distinction of being the first cryptocurrency to achieve real-world use.
