Bitcoin History

Bitcoin history ;

Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency invented in 2008. It was released as open source software in 2009 and made available to people.
The first recorded purchase of goods with Bitcoin was when Laszlo Hanyecz bought two pizzas for 10,000 BTC. The day this transaction took place is still known as Bitcoin Pizza Day.

The first Bitcoin halving took place in 2012. At that time, people engaged in Bitcoin mining were rewarded with 50 BTC for every 200 blocks mined, which shows how few people were interested in Bitcoin mining. As such, the value of Bitcoin was quite low. On May 18, 2012, a person named Hanyecz said that he could give 10,000 Bitcoins for 2 large pizzas on a forum site called Bitcointalk.org. No one accepted his offer until May 22. The first physical exchange took place on May 22.
