⚡️🏆 NEW - Bitcoin breaks a Guinness book world record with over 4,000 payments in a single day. At Bitcoin 2025 in Las Vegas , the crypto community quietly achieved what many considered impossible: more than 4,000 real Bitcoin transactions in a single day, with real people buying real items. Participants achieved the Guinness World Records™ title of "Most Bitcoin POS transactions in 8 hours", completing 4,001 transactions in that time. This is the best way to answer the debate as to whether BTC is better suited to a "store of value" or "means of payment" function. image
