At this moment in 2009, a transaction that would rewrite history took place silently — Satoshi Nakamoto transferred 10 BTC to Hal Finney.
Although the amount was small, its significance was far more than that. From this moment on, Bitcoin moved from theory to practice, transforming from the dream of the white paper into an asset that can be held in your hand. Those 10 bitcoins witnessed the first real application of decentralized payments and marked the beginning of a completely new financial order.
More than a decade has passed, and this piece of history has long become a cultural totem in the crypto world.

Oh my, it's been over ten years and we're still talking about this story, but I still can't help but laugh every time I see it.
