What is Bitcoin?

Bitcoin is a digital currency and payment system. It is the first decentralized peer-to-peer payment network that is completely decentralized without a central server or trusted parties. The concept of Bitcoin was first described in a research paper published in November 2008. The Bitcoin network came into existence on January 3, 2009, with the release of the first open-source Bitcoin client and the issuance of the first Bitcoins. Since then, the Bitcoin protocol has been continuously updated and the network has grown to a size of 7 transactions per second.
