"Once people have viewed this documentary, they won't think this is a crazy plan and they'll think it is very achievable."Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency, a virtual or digital currency that has no physical form.

Bitcoins can be split into smaller units, with a satoshi being the smallest monetary unit.Satoshis are named after bitcoin's inventor Satoshi Nakamoto – believed to be a pseudonym – who wrote a key document about the currency in 2008.Those investing in the product around this time, like Mr Howells, were part of a "very small" crypto community known as Cypherpunks, said Billy Bambrough, author of the CryptoCodex newsletter.

Bitcoin was not the first cryptocurrency to be invented, but it did gain considerable attention with early adherents being "very quickly enamoured with it", Mr Bambrough said.Prices began to rise in about 2016 and 2017, and again in 2020 during the Covid pandemic when "stock markets, cryptocurrencies and meme coins went up hugely".

"A lot of people got very rich, but a lot of people also lost money," Mr Bambrough said.

The cryptocurrency also saw rapid increases in late 2024, shortly after Donald Trump's victory in the US general election, with his administration being seen as far friendlier towards cryptocurrencies than the Biden White House.Cardiff Crown Court heard the pair fought frequently, and had been squabbling via text message on the evening leading up to the incident.

Mr Orphan denies causing grievous bodily harm with intent.Ms Burley told the court she still suffered with pain and struggled to play with her children due to the injuries she sustained.

The couple met in late 2017, when they were both working for Gwent Police.Ms Burley was a custody detention officer, before passing her basic police officer training in August 2018, and Mr Orphan joined the force as a constable in May 2016.
