Does Bitcoin Trade 24 Hours?

Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency, without a central bank or single administrator, that can be sent from user to user on the peer-to-peer bitcoin network without the need for intermediaries. Transactions are verified by network nodes through cryptography and recorded in a public distributed ledger called a blockchain.

Bitcoin is unique in that there are a finite number of them: 21 million.

Bitcoins are created as a reward for a process known as mining. They can be exchanged for other currencies, products, and services.

NOTE: Warning: Trading Bitcoin is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk. Trading Bitcoin 24 hours a day can be dangerous and can lead to losses that exceed your initial investment. Before trading Bitcoin, please ensure you fully understand the risks involved, including the volatility of the market, and consult with a qualified financial advisor.

As of February 2015, over 100,000 merchants and vendors accepted bitcoin as payment.

Bitcoin is traded 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The bitcoin market never closes, so finding a broker that suits your needs and preferences is important.

Different brokers offer different features, such as different leverage amounts, different spreads, and different minimum deposit requirements. You will also want to find a broker that offers a platform that you are comfortable using.
