The New Digital Currency Bitcoin is a digital token that uses cryptography to secure and verify transactions. It was created in 2009 by an unknown person using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. The Bitcoin network is decentralized, which means that it is not controlled by any government or institution. Transactions are made with no middlemen - meaning, no banks! They are recorded on a public ledger called the blockchain. This allows for peer-to-peer transactions without the need for intermediaries. The total supply of Bitcoins is capped at 21 million. New coins are created through a process called "mining," which involves solving complex mathematical problems using powerful computers.
