Today, Bitcoin is the most popular peer-to-peer digital currency, and is available anywhere there is internet access. Bitcoin is a form of digital currency, created and held electronically. No one controls it. Bitcoins aren't printed, like dollars or euros – they're produced by people running computers all around the world, using software that solves mathematical problems. It's the first example of a growing category of money known as cryptocurrency. As an open source solution, Bitcoin is secure and fully decentralized. It is a solution to many common problems and costs with traditional monetary systems. We believe Bitcoin usage will continue to grow exponentially into the future, and will offer great opportunities on both the local and global scale for individuals and businesses. Hundreds upon hundreds of merchants globally are starting to use Bitcoin for a reason.
