Where does bitcoin came from? How it's made and how does it expand/grow? Thank you for any answers.

Bitcoin is 'created' by a person or group of people with the name 'Satoshi Nakamoto'. Does anyone really know who he is? Although there are many articles and investigations to find out the truth about who he is, there is no strong evidence to date. Is it important? Not at all. Satoshi designed the entire Bitcoin system with an 'open manner' attitude - meaning it is available for viewing and reviewing by everyone, so there are no hidden secrets and no influence from the creator. As time went by, many people began to work on these codes so that they were very different from Satoshi's initial draft. It is important to remember that there is a misconception about Satoshi mentioning that Satoshi created Bitcoin alone. Like other major breakthroughs in science, Satoshi's creation was built by the hands of many people. In recent decades, many leading experts, technicians, and mathematicians have been involved in research on cryptography, systems, and more. Satoshi succeeded in summarizing all these work into a coherent and clear plan and then implementing the plan. If you read Satoshi Whitepaper, you will read references from all the discoveries that drive his success in the creation.

Thank you for this question and thank you for this very informative answer. I heard about bitcoin mining before. But the above answer gives me more idea about bitcoin history.
