Back in 2009, a mysterious figure named Satoshi Nakamoto decided that money should be free like the wind and anonymous like your friend who still hasn’t paid you back. Thus, Bitcoin was born — the first cryptocurrency that made some people rich and others bald from stress.
📌 What is it, really?
Bitcoin is digital money. You can’t hold it, rip it, or lose it under the couch (although people have lost USB drives with millions — and tears). It lives in the blockchain — imagine a huge notebook where everyone can write, but no one can erase. Not even if you “accidentally” want to double your balance.
⚙️ Where does it come from?
Not from a central bank basement. Bitcoins are “mined” by computers solving complex math puzzles. Solve a puzzle, get a coin. But be warned: if your laptop wheezes from too many browser tabs, mining is not for you.
🍕 Why do we need it?
Once upon a time, it bought pizza. (Yes, someone really paid 10,000 BTC for two pizzas in 2010.) Today it’s mostly for investment or buying things online. Some stores accept it, but most treat it like UFOs — interesting but suspicious.
📉📈 Why does the price bounce like a kangaroo on Red Bull?
Because of volatility. Today it’s +20%, tomorrow −30%. Elon tweets, market moods, or cosmic alignment — all fair game.
💡 Should you buy it?
If you enjoy financial roller coasters and still have money after bills — maybe. Just don’t sell your grandma’s china set. And remember the golden rule: “Only invest what you can afford to lose.”
