Cryptocurrency History | How it all Started | CRYPTO Pathshala with Hitesh Malviya | Oneindia News

The idea for cryptocurrency first began in the late 1980s, the idea was for a currency that could be sent untraceable and in a manner that did not require centralized entities like banks.

In 1995, American cryptographer David Chaum implemented an anonymous cryptographic electronic money called Digicash.

It was an early form of cryptographic electronic payments which required user software to withdraw from a bank and required specific encrypted keys before they could be sent to a recipient.

Bit Gold, often called a direct precursor to Bitcoin, was designed in 1998 by Nick Szabo.

It required a participant to dedicate computer power to solving cryptographic puzzles, and those who solved the puzzle received the reward.

On March 4, the price of Bitcoin broke $65,000, bringing it closer to returning to an all-time high reached in November 2021. NBC reports that the latest rally has been driven by hopes that the launch of bitcoin exchange- traded funds will expand bitcoin's pool of buyers. . In 2024, the cryptocurrency has gained over 48%, rapidly approaching its record intra-day all-time high of over $68,000. In January, Bitcoin ETFs were first approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). . The SEC said the approval of the ETFs were meant to make it easier for investors to gain exposure to Bitcoin without having to actually own the digital coins. NBC reports that the world of crypto is also banking on a potential rally following a technical event known as "halving" scheduled to occur in April. This event will see the rate of supply for new bitcoin to decline, which could cause the value of the cryptocurrency to increase if demand remains unchanged. Some mainstream investment experts have still urged caution when it comes to investing in the controversial cryptocurrency.
