Overview — Bitcoin

Bitcoin is the first decentralized cryptocurrency. It runs on a global blockchain and is often called 'digital gold' because of its fixed 21M supply.

How it works

Bitcoin trades 24/7 across hundreds of exchanges worldwide. Its price is driven by pure supply and demand — no central bank controls issuance. Halving events every ~4 years cut new supply in half.

Key factors

Liquidity & macro

BTC is sensitive to global liquidity — easy money fuels rallies, tightening hurts.

ETF flows

Spot Bitcoin ETF inflows/outflows now move price meaningfully.

Halving cycle

Supply cuts roughly every four years have historically preceded major bull runs.

Regulation

Government policy in the US, EU, and Asia can spark sharp moves.

On-chain activity

Active addresses, miner behavior, and exchange flows hint at supply pressure.
