At the time, 1 BTC was worth less than a cent. Today, it represents a revolution in how we think about value, freedom, and financial systems.
But Bitcoin is more than just a digital asset. It’s a response to distrust in traditional banks and fiat currency. With only 21 million coins ever to exist, Bitcoin is often compared to gold — scarce, mined (digitally), and increasingly seen as a store of value.
Bitcoin is transparent (you can track every transaction), secure (thanks to blockchain technology), and global (it works the same in New York or Nairobi). For some, it’s a hedge against inflation. For others, it’s a path to financial independence.
Still, Bitcoin isn’t without risk — its price is volatile, and its environmental impact has been criticized. But one thing is clear: Bitcoin has changed the financial conversation forever.
Whether it’s the future of money or just the beginning of a larger movement, Bitcoin forces us to ask: Who should control our money?
