What is Bitcoin?

Bitcoin is the world’s first decentralised digital currency with no central bank, authority or administrator that controls or approves transactions. Bitcoin is securely stored and exchanged through a digital ledger that is otherwise known as a Blockchain.

The genesis of Bitcoin dates back to October 31, 2008, when an individual or group of individuals acting under the pseudonym “Satoshi Nakamoto” published the Bitcoin whitepaper. Bitcoins are divisible into smaller units called ‘Satoshis’, similar to the way a dollar is divisible into cents. However, each Satoshi is worth 0.00000001 Bitcoin.

We get it, you want to HODL, but there are some reasons why you might consider cashing out:

  • To sell at a higher price since you bought it at a lower one.
  • To get back the initial money you put into buying Bitcoin
  • To sell immediately if the the price action is going differently from what you expect
  • To diversify your portfolio by adding some other tokens to your wallet
  • To use your profit to buy something in real life, maybe a car, a house or a gift to your loved one
