BTC is the abbreviation for Bitcoin. Bitcoin is a digital currency created in 2009. It originates from a white paper created by Satoshi Nakamoto, a mysterious alias of a person who is still unknown. The most important aspect of Bitcoin is that it allows peer-to-peer payment with lower transaction fees compared to government-backed banks, and all ledgers for the cryptocurrency are kept in the “Cloud” on a decentralized system using blockchain technology, meaning it cannot be altered or hacked.
