About Bitcoin

Bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency. It was launched in 2009 by a person or group using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. It is not run by a central bank or a company. Transactions are recorded on a shared ledger kept jointly by computers around the world. That ledger is called the blockchain.

Bitcoin's supply is limited and no more than 21 million will ever exist. New bitcoins enter circulation through mining. The reward paid to miners is cut in half roughly every four years. This event is called the halving. The most recent one took place in April 2024.

No single institution sets the price of Bitcoin. The price forms where buyers and sellers on exchanges agree. That is why small differences between exchanges are normal. The price on this page is the average compiled by CoinGecko from many exchanges.

What moves the Bitcoin price?

  • Supply and the halving: The amount of newly issued Bitcoin is cut in half roughly every four years.
  • Institutional demand: Flows into and out of spot ETFs as well as corporate treasury purchases.
  • Interest rates and liquidity: Central bank decisions. The US Federal Reserve is watched most closely.
  • Regulation: National laws and tax decisions on cryptocurrencies.
  • Exchange rates: Bitcoin's price in a local currency also moves with that currency's dollar exchange rate.
