Bitcoin (BTC) is a decentralized cryptocurrency launched in 2009 by Satoshi Nakamoto, a mysterious figure (or group). It’s purely digital, divisible to 8 decimal places (satoshis). Fun fact: The first real-world BTC purchase was two pizzas for 10,000 BTC—learn more at Bitcoin.org.
The HKD (Hong Kong Dollar) is Hong Kong’s currency, pegged to the USD. It uses coins (10¢, 20¢, 50¢, $1, $2, $5, $10) and bills ($10, $20, $50, $100, $500, $1,000). Bills are issued by three banks, each with unique designs—like HSBC’s lion. Learn more at the Hong Kong Monetary Authority.
Bitcoin’s smallest unit, a satoshi, is named after its mystery creator.
HKD coins have scalloped edges because smooth ones were too easy to fake.
