January 3, 2009: The Genesis Block. The Birth of Bitcoin 👶
16 years ago today, the first Bitcoin block was mined by Satoshi Nakamoto, forever changing the course of humanity.
Embedded in that Genesis Block was this message:
“The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks.”
It was a signal to the world - a statement about broken systems and a call for something better.
Bitcoin was born as a response to financial instability, offering humanity an alternative:
decentralization, sovereignty, and fairness.
16 years later, Bitcoin has grown to a global movement.
I can’t believe how far we’ve already come.
And this is only the beginning now.
Today, we celebrate Bitcoin’s journey and look forward to the future it promises.
Whether you’re a miner, HODLer, developer, investor or just learning about it - you’re part of this Evolution of humanity.
16 years of proof-of-work, innovation, and resilience.
Happy Birthday, Bitcoin!
Thanks for healing this world 🧡✌🏼
Thanks to everyone contributing to the biggest, strongest & safest network humanity has ever seen.
We are making this world a better place, only together 💪🏼🧡🤝🏼
