Bitcoin is a type of cryptocurrency, which is a type of digital currency designed to operate as money and a form of payment independent of the control of any one person, group, or entity. As a result, there is no longer a requirement for a third party to be involved in financial transactions when using bitcoin.

2009 was the year when an unknown programmer or group of programmers going by the moniker Satoshi Nakamoto presented bitcoin to the general public for the first time. Since then, it has grown to become the cryptocurrency with the greatest widespread recognition around the globe.

Bitcoin, in contrast to traditional currencies, is generated, disseminated, exchanged, and kept via the use of a decentralized ledger system known as a blockchain. The blockchain is a decentralized, cryptographically secure, and verifiable database that serves as the backbone of the Bitcoin network. The blockchain itself can be considered to be a technical phenomenon.
