What is Bitcoin?

Bitcoin (BTC) is the first cryptocurrency, launched in 2009. Its supply is capped at 21 million coins and its price moves a lot over time.

It is bought and sold in fractions (up to eight decimals). Payouts go over the Bitcoin network, whose confirmations can take longer than on other blockchains: allow extra time.

Networks available for BTC

BTC is sent and received on Bitcoin. Pick the network supported by the wallet or platform receiving it: crypto sent on the wrong network cannot be recovered. Network fees, estimated before you confirm, differ from one network to another.
