🧐 Did you know these curiosities about the origin of Bitcoin?
If you are new to the crypto world, get ready for a mini trip to the past… with facts that will surprise you! 👇
🧑💻 1. No one knows who created Bitcoin
It was launched in 2009 by someone (or a group) under the pseudonym **Satoshi Nakamoto**. To this day, their true identity is a complete mystery 🤯
📧 2. It all started with an email
Satoshi sent a message to a cryptography mailing list announcing his "P2P electronic cash system". Thus the revolution was born 🧵📩
📜 3. The first block is called "Genesis Block"
It was mined on January 3, 2009, and contains a hidden message:
*"The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks."**
A critique of the traditional financial system 💥
🍕 4. The first purchase with Bitcoin was… a pizza!
On May 22, 2010, someone paid **10,000 BTC for two pizzas**. Today they would be worth *hundreds of millions of dollars*. Since then, *Bitcoin Pizza Day* is celebrated 🍕
🔒 5. There will only be 21 million Bitcoins
That means it is limited, like gold. Currently, more than 19 million have already been mined. And you? Do you have at least a fraction? 😉
