       Bitcoin the pioneer in the race of digital currency and digital assets was launched by Satoshi Nakamoto at the start of 2009.

Imagine you are in a rainforest of the amazon deep inside shadows of trees even the sun isn’t reaching the ground, and you are clueless, not knowing what way will lead you out of this darkness.
