A Brief History of Bitcoin
In 2008, during the financial crisis, Satoshi Nakamoto published the Bitcoin whitepaper, introducing a decentralized digital currency. In 2009, the first Genesis Block was mined, and in 2010, Bitcoin was used for the first real-world transaction—10,000 BTC for two pizzas.
By 2013, Bitcoin’s price reached $1,000, but after the Mt. Gox hack in 2014, the market crashed. In 2017, Bitcoin hit $20,000, only to drop to $3,000 in 2018.
In 2021, El Salvador adopted Bitcoin as legal tender, and its price soared to $69,000. The 2024 halving event reduced Bitcoin’s supply, driving further price growth.
Today, Bitcoin is considered digital gold, symbolizing financial freedom and reshaping the global economy.
