From "worthless code" to a value of $120,000,
When Satoshi Nakamoto released the white paper in 2008, no one expected this string of code to cause a stir!
In 2009, the genesis block was born, and 50 bitcoins fell like digital babies; who could have imagined it would later become "digital gold"?
💥The first iconic moment must be the 2010 "Pizza Incident"!
A programmer traded 10,000 bitcoins for two pizzas... Now these two pizzas are worth $12 billion! Every day someone tweets @ him: Regret it? (I feel sorry for him just through the screen hhh)
In 2011, it first surged to $1, followed by a crazy roller coaster 🎢
$31 → $2, veterans in the crypto circle said: Those who dared to buy at the bottom back then were tough! In the same year, the dark web "Silk Road" used it for transactions; this thing became half angel and half devil...
2013 was even more thrilling!
The price soared to $1,200, only to be knocked back down by a ban, but Germany recognized it as a "unit of account"; the world was confused: What is this?
2017 was the true magical year ✨
It surged from $1,000 to $20,000! My best friend followed the trend and bought some; when it rose to over $10,000, she panicked and sold overnight, and when it later rose to $20,000, she cried in the bathroom... (Don’t laugh, I might have done the same 😂)
In 2021, El Salvador directly announced it as legal tender!
ATMs dispensed bitcoins, supermarkets accepted card payments; this operation left the whole world dumbfounded... In the same year, it surged to $69,000, and mining machines roared in the server room, feeling like they were about to dominate the Earth 🌍
In 2024, after the fourth halving, it will take off completely!
The U.S. approved spot ETFs, Wall Street big shots went crazy throwing money, pushing it directly to $90,000! Now in 2025, it has broken $120,000... Those who called it a "pyramid scheme" back then, do they feel the pain?
From a programmer's toy to a national fiat currency, from a dark web tool to a trillion-dollar market cap, BTC has been like a cheat code in these 16 years... Some have achieved financial freedom with it, while others chased high prices and cried in despair 😭
All I can say is: I don’t understand, but I’m greatly shocked! How long do you think it can keep going crazy?
