◆ Bitcoin’s Legendary Background
➤ Bitcoin isn’t just another coin; it’s digital gold, born in 2009 by the mysterious Satoshi Nakamoto.
➤ Designed as a peer-to-peer electronic cash system, it runs on blockchain secured by proof-of-work mining.
➤ Key milestones:
1. 2010 — 10,000 BTC for two pizzas 🍕
2. 2013 — Surged to $1K, then crashed
3. 2017 — Exploded to $20K
4. 2021 — Hit $69K at peak retail frenzy
5. 2022 — Brutal bear, bottom near $15K
6. 2025 — New ATH above $124K 🎯
➤ Today, BTC = scarce, institutional-backed, and globally adopted:
Nations like El Salvador stacking sats
Firms like MicroStrategy treating BTC as treasury gold
ETFs driving Wall Street inflows

💎 Supply Dynamics:
Total supply capped at 21M coins
Circulating supply ~ 19.8M (Aug 2025)
Post-halving (2024): Issuance cut to 3.125 BTC/block
Scarcity + ETF hoarding = BTC as digital real estate
