Bitcoin (BTC)

Launched in 2009

Bitcoin(BTC) is a peer-to-peer cryptocurrency that aims to function as a means of exchange that is independent as a means of exchange that is independent of any central authority. BTC can be transferred electronically in a secure, verifiable, and immutable way.

Launched in 2009, BTC is the first virtual currency to solve the double-spending issue by timestamping transactions before broadcasting them to all of the nodes in the Bitcoin network. The Bitcoin Protocol offered a solution to the Byzantine Generals. Problem with a blockchain network structure, a notion first created by Stuart Haber and W.Scott Stornetta in 1991.

Bitcoin's whitepaper was published pseudonymously in 2008 by individual, or a group, with the pseudonym "Satoshi Nakamoto", whose underlying identity has still not been verified.

The Bitcoin protocol uses an SHA-256d-base Proof-of-Work (PoW) algorithm to reach network consensus. Its network has a target block time of 10 minutes and a maximum suplay of 21 million tokens, witch a decaying token emission rate, To prevent fluctuation of the block time, the network's block difficulty is re-adjust through an algorithm base on the past 2016 block times.

With a block size limit capped at 1 megabyte, the Bitcoin Protocol has supported both the Lightning Network, a second-layer insfrastructure for payment chanels, and Segregated Witness, a soft-fork to increase the number of transaction on a bloc, as solutions to network scalability.
