Algorand’s first block is celebrating its fifth anniversary, with a series of celebrations to come

According to TechFlow, Algorand celebrated the fifth anniversary of the birth of its first block: on June 11, 2019, Algorand launched block 0. In the five years since then, the Algorand network has been operating safely and stably, maintaining a record of zero forks, zero downtime, and zero-second transaction final confirmation, becoming a decentralized, scalable, and secure blockchain infrastructure in the minds of the community.

In addition, around the Genesis Day when the first block was born, Algorand will hold a series of celebrations in the next month, including free minting of anniversary NFTs, to celebrate this milestone with the community.
