Bitcoin Turns 16
The anonymous creator of Bitcoin, under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto, launched the network for the main cryptocurrency on January 3, 2009
Despite the launch of the Bitcoin network in early January, the first transaction of the main cryptocurrency took place more than a week after the creation of the first block - on January 12, 2009, in block 170, 10 BTC were sent from Satoshi Nakamoto to developer Hal Finney. And the first trades became possible only on October 5, when Bitcoin appeared on the New Liberty Standard exchange, where 1,309 thousand BTC could be purchased for $1 (their current value is $125 million).
