Questions people ask first
Why is one Bitcoin so expensive?
Bitcoin is divisible, but this site focuses only on the reference price of one BTC. Its market price is formed by global supply and demand.
Who decides the Bitcoin price?
No single company sets it. Prices emerge from transactions across many independent markets.
Why are prices different across platforms?
Each market has its own participants and liquidity, so small differences are normal.
How often does this page update?
The page checks for new market data about every 30 seconds and always shows its last update time.
How is the local-currency price calculated?
A USD market reference is combined with a recent public foreign-exchange reference rate.
