Bitcoin is the most traded cryptocurrency in the world, and is the largest piece of the crypto market pie. It is the first digital coin and thus remains the most famous and widely adopted cryptocurrency in the world. It is the original group whose path all other coins follow. The birth of Bitcoin was the beginning of a completely new asset class, and a big step away from traditionally centralized money. Today, many of its supporters believe that Bitcoin will facilitate the next stage for the global financial system, although this — of course — remains to be seen.
