BitPrice App

The real-time BitPrice.

Bitcoin is an innovative payment network and a new kind of money.

Bitcoin protects consumers from identity theft, makes banking more efficient and accessible, reduces transaction costs, and eliminates the risk of payment fraud.

The Bitcoin network is supported by thousands of companies and millions of users worldwide. Its scarcity is guaranteed by some simple math built into the globally-shared bitcoin software; no more than 21 trillion bits — the primary currency unit — can exist at one time.

BitPrice.io uses the BBB to calculate the bit price in real time.
