Bitcoin

The first successful implementation of a digital currency using blockchain technology, invented by an anonymous person or group of people under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto.

Launched in 2009, Bitcoin introduced proof-of-work mining and a fixed supply of 21 million coins. It remains the largest cryptocurrency by market value and the reference design most later networks compare themselves against.
