To make your explanation more complete, you might want to include how much the bitcoins are worth now. This would make the reason for your excitement more tangible to your friend.
coherence cohesion
To improve the structure, consider breaking down the third paragraph into two separate paragraphs: one explaining the verification of the information, and another outlining how you plan to use the money.
task achievement
The tone of the letter is warm and friendly, which is very appropriate for this type of correspondence.
coherence cohesion
The letter follows a logical structure with a clear beginning, body, and conclusion.

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
