#BitcoinTurns16 Bitcoin turns 16 years old now, from being worthless to a market value of over $ 2 trillion, Bitcoin has grown extensively in the last 16 years, so much so that Bitcoin has been the best-performing asset class in the past 11 years.

Satoshi Nakamoto mined the first Bitcoin block on 3rd January 2009.

In January 2024, the first US spot Bitcoin ETFs were approved, opening the doors for institutional investment.

In December last year, Bitcoin crossed the $ 100,000 mark for the first time, driven by ETF optimism and increasing institutional interest.
