1. ‘’Early Days of Bitcoin’’
It was 2009 when Satoshi Nakamoto first launched the Bitcoin blockchain. There was no one in the world who knew about cryptocurrency yet, and Bitcoin was just a digital code embedded in a chain of blocks. A few enthusiasts began mining coins, and at that time the value of one Bitcoin was zero. The story began with a transaction in which Nakamoto transferred 10 BTC to his friend Hal Finney - and it was symbolic. Today, Bitcoin is worth thousands of dollars, and its story continues to attract the attention of the world.
2. “Pizza for 10,000 Bitcoins”
One of the most famous episodes in the history of Bitcoin is the purchase of two pizzas in 2010 for 10,000 BTC. Laszlo Hanyecz, a programmer from Florida, wanted to order a pizza and offered to exchange 10,000 bitcoins for two pizzas on a Bitcoin community forum. At that time, Bitcoin was worth almost nothing, and no one could have imagined that years later this transaction would become a historical moment, and the price of one bitcoin would be measured in thousands of dollars. Now those 10,000 bitcoins are worth millions.
