What is Bitcoin?

Bitcoin is a distributed ledger for transfer and store of value (a blockchain). Bitcoin was founded by a pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto and launched in 2009.

How does Bitcoin work?

Miners process transactions and receive fees from users (supply-side fees).

Who governs Bitcoin?

BTC holders own and govern the protocol. They currently do not take a cut of the total transaction fees paid by users (revenue).
