Bitcoin

The first crypto asset, with a fixed cap on how many exist

In detail

Bitcoin, running since 2009, was the first crypto asset. The supply is capped at 21,000,000 coins and cannot grow beyond that. There is no central administrator, and transactions are verified across the network. Each coin divides into very small units, so it can be bought in small amounts.

Example

The supply is capped at 21,000,000 coins, and one coin divides into 100,000,000 units.
