🪙 Just Fun Fact: On August 15, 2010, a hacker almost killed Bitcoin by creating 184.467 Billion BTC in the Value Overflow Incident.

Satoshi Nakamoto saved the day with a quick hard fork, wiping out the excess coins.

A bug in Bitcoin’s code failed to handle massive transaction outputs, letting the hacker generate 8,784 times more Bitcoins than ever should exist in one go.
