Bitcoin, the granddaddy of crypto, started as a quirky experiment in 2009 by the mysterious Satoshi Nakamoto. Fast forward to 2025, and it’s hit a mind-boggling market cap flirting with $2 trillion at times, with nearly 20 million coins circulating. What’s random and wild? Its price swings are like a rollercoaster built by a mad scientist—$103,332 one day, dipping 10% the next, all while miners chug along, adding 900 new coins daily until the 21 million cap hits in 2140. Meanwhile, 3-4 million bitcoins might be lost forever in forgotten wallets, like digital treasure buried in the blockchain. From pizza purchases to institutional darling, Bitcoin’s journey is a chaotic, beautiful mess that keeps the world guessing.
