What is Bitcoin?
Bitcoin is a network and payment system, whose currencies are completely digital. Bitcoin is the first conception of "cryptographic currency", described in 1998 by Wei Dai in the electronic mail list "cypherpunks", where he proposed the idea of a new type of money that used cryptography to control its creation and transactions, instead of a centralized authority.
The first specification of the Bitcoin protocol was published by Satoshi Nakamoto in 2009. Satoshi left the project at the end of 2010 without revealing much about him. Since then, the community has grown exponentially and has many developers around the world.
