Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency, or a decentralised digital currency. This means there is no central bank or single administrator.
It was created in 2009, and can be stored in a virtual wallet. Cryptocurrency is a secure form of digital money that is, in many cases, anonymous. Cryptocurrencies use encryption to secure transactions, and can be done with minimal processing fees.
