Bitcoin and Altcoins

  • Bitcoin (BTC) is the first and most well-known cryptocurrency, but it represents just a fraction of the total cryptocurrency market today. There are over 10,000 cryptocurrencies in existence, each with different features, use cases, and consensus mechanisms.
  • Altcoins (alternative coins) include Ethereum, Litecoin, Ripple (XRP), Cardano, Polkadot, and many others. Each altcoin aims to improve upon Bitcoin or provide unique features, such as faster transaction speeds, greater scalability, or more robust privacy
