Bitcoin (BTC) History and Overview

Bitcoin (BTC) History and Overview

Bitcoin is the first and most popular digital currency - a cryptocurrency. It powers a peer-to-peer network for the exchange of value through the use of a decentralized protocol. The idea behind Bitcoin is to have a system where there is no middleman or central authority. The live Bitcoin to EUR conversion is € 91,669.83.

Bitcoin refers to both the software protocol as well as to the digital asset, which goes by the ticker symbol BTC. At its most basic level, Bitcoin is useful for transacting value outside the traditional financial system. You can buy and sell BTC for other cryptos alongside more traditional currencies at crypto exchanges like Binance, Kraken and Bitstamp.

Satoshi Nakamoto, a mysterious person (or group of people), launched Bitcoin in 2009. What sets it apart is that it's completely decentralized, meaning no single entity controls it. Instead, a network of computers, known as miners, maintains and validates transactions.

Bitcoin mining creates new bitcoins in the form of block rewards. The process verifies transactions on the blockchain. Miners earn Bitcoin as a reward for completing "blocks" of verified transactions and adding them to the blockchain.

It has a maximum total supply of 21 million, which means that there can only be 21 million in circulation. However, the number of issued Bitcoins will likely never reach 21 million. That is because of the use of rounding operators in the codebase.

You can break a single Bitcoin down into 100 million tiny pieces called "satoshis." You can store them in a digital wallet. The current price of 1 BTC in EUR is € 91,669.83. But you do not need to buy a whole Bitcoin; you can buy a very small fraction of it.

You can send parts of a Bitcoin to pay for things. You can also trade it for other crypto assets. But when you dig into the technicalities, it's like peeling an onion—layer after layer of complexity.

All Bitcoin transactions happen on a blockchain. Think of it as a public digital ledger that everyone can see but no one can tamper with. Miners are the ones who validate and secure these transactions. They validate transactions by solving complex math problems and receive new bitcoins as a reward for their efforts.

Key Points to Remember

  • Bitcoin was the first big player in the crypto game, and it's still the largest by market value.
  • Unlike traditional money, it exists on a decentralized network called a blockchain.
  • Its value has had a roller-coaster ride, experiencing dramatic ups and downs over the years.
  • Because of the digital asset's success, countless other cryptos have sprung up, increasing the use of blockchain technology.
  • You can buy Bitcoin on several cryptocurrency exchanges.

History doesn't always repeat itself, but it often rhymes. 


And history states that the last two #altseasons started after three consecutive weekly closes over the last $BTC weekly high.

Altcoin versus Bitcoin $BTC observation: liquidity is still moving away from risky bets and into Bitcoin. This may not change until Fed pivots to more dovish stance and money printing.

Another day and another ATH for $BTC .


Normally marginal higher highs are technically weak.


But due to heavy sell-walls and big institutions buying, this might be an 'upward consolidation' before spiking through 100k usd...

The cryptocurrency market has experienced a resurgence since the U.S. presidential elections. The incoming administration is expected to be significantly more favorable toward the crypto space. After enduring four years of regulatory challenges, the landscape is shifting, and we anticipate a stream of positive developments in the coming years.


The reversal of Operation Chokepoint, led by SEC Chairman Gary Gensler, is expected to stimulate increased investment across the crypto economy. It has been just two weeks since the U.S. election, and the crypto market has already responded with a 30% increase in total market capitalization.


This week, the total market cap, represented by $TOTAL, finally surpassed its all-time high from 2021. A deeper analysis reveals that the majority of this growth has been driven by Bitcoin ($BTC), which is now approaching the psychological $100,000 mark. Fueled by the popularity of Bitcoin ETFs and robust institutional buying, Bitcoin's dominance has risen to 60%. With nearly a $2 trillion market cap and a more favorable environment under the new administration, the future looks promising for Bitcoin and the broader cryptocurrency market.


In contrast, the total market cap of altcoins, represented by $TOTAL2, remains 40% below its all-time highs, while the market cap of smaller altcoins, denoted by $OTHERS, still needs to grow by 70% to reach its peak from 2021.


At Incrementum, we remain bullish on Bitcoin’s prospects for 2025 and beyond. However, we are even more optimistic about the potential of smaller altcoins, which have been systematically suppressed under the previous U.S. administration. 🚀
