About Bitcoin (BTC)
Bitcoin (BTC) is the first and most valuable cryptocurrency, launched on 3 January 2009 by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto. It operates on a decentralised proof-of-work blockchain and has become the benchmark asset against which all other crypto is measured — the "digital gold" thesis.
Hard-capped supply of 21 million BTC; the last coin will be mined around 2140
Block reward halves roughly every four years; the next halving is expected in 2028
Spot Bitcoin ETFs were approved by the SEC on 10 January 2024, opening institutional access
MicroStrategy holds over 1% of all circulating BTC as corporate treasury
Bitcoin's network hash rate sits above 500 EH/s, making it the most secured blockchain by compute
What drives the BTC price?
BTC moves on spot-ETF flows (BlackRock's IBIT, Fidelity's FBTC), Federal Reserve liquidity conditions (it trades as a long-duration risk asset), halving-cycle narratives, and correlation with the Nasdaq 100 during macro risk-on episodes. On-chain metrics like exchange balances, miner reserves, and long-term holder supply provide medium-term signals.
Trading notes
BTC trades 24/7 but liquidity peaks during US/London overlap. Expect the sharpest moves around CPI prints, FOMC meetings, and ETF flow reports. Weekend moves are common as spot ETFs are closed — crypto-native order books can gap.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is driving the Bitcoin price in USD right now?
BTC/USD in 2025–2026 has been primarily driven by spot-Bitcoin-ETF flows (BlackRock's IBIT, Fidelity's FBTC), Fed liquidity conditions, and the post-2024-halving supply squeeze. Correlations with the Nasdaq 100 remain high during macro risk-on episodes.
Why does the Bitcoin price differ slightly between exchanges?
Each exchange runs its own order book with different liquidity, deposit/withdrawal frictions, and jurisdictional restrictions. Price differences ("arbitrage spreads") are usually under 0.5% between top-tier venues (Coinbase, Binance, Kraken) but can widen sharply during stress events.
How often does the Bitcoin USD price update?
Spot BTC prices update every block (~10 minutes) on the Bitcoin blockchain itself, but centralised exchanges quote prices tick-by-tick based on their order books — effectively real-time. Our converter refreshes pricing every 5 minutes from CoinGecko's aggregated feed.
Is the Bitcoin price in USD the same as mid-market?
Large exchanges trade at or very near mid-market (the weighted-average price of recent transactions). Retail-facing conversion services (PayPal, Cash App, Robinhood) typically apply a 0.5–1.5% spread. The price our converter shows is the institutional benchmark from CoinGecko.
How do I buy Bitcoin with US Dollars?
Our tool is a price converter, not an exchange. To actually buy BTC with USD, use a regulated exchange like Coinbase, Kraken, or Gemini. For buy-and-hold exposure without self-custody, spot Bitcoin ETFs (IBIT, FBTC, BITB) offer simpler access through any US brokerage account.
