Bitcoin Story & Mission

Bitcoin was launched on January 3, 2009 by the mysterious Satoshi Nakamoto. The goal? Create internet-native money that no central bank or company can control.

2008 Financial Crisis:

Governments printed massive amounts of money, banks failed, and people lost savings. Bitcoin was a response to that instability.

Bitcoin Principles:

  • Fixed supply: Only 21 million BTC will ever exist
  • Open: Anyone with internet can use it
  • Neutral: No censorship, no borders
  • Peer-to-peer: Send value without intermediaries

🇬🇭 Ghana Perspective:

Cedis can lose value quickly during inflation. Bitcoin gives Ghanaians a way to store value in an asset with a predictable supply.
