"Back in 2009, nobody thought this thing called #Bitcoin would survive, let alone change how the world looks at money."

It was not shinning, it wasn’t popular, and honestly, most people ignored it. It started quietly with something called the Genesis Block, created by an unknown person (or group) using the name Satoshi Nakamoto. At that time, Bitcoin was worth almost nothing around $0.0009. People were just testing it, mining it for fun for those who were capable of doing so , some were doing some experiment on it to see if its real good thing with values in the market.

One one of the fun 😀 story about #BITCOIN it happened that a guy with 10,000 BTC has to buy two pizzas. At that time, it felt normal. Today, that decision sounds painful 😅. Early users were mostly technical guys who were much interested about blockchain technology, programmers, and miners who believed in the idea, not the money.

Many years passed, and the Bitcoin was slowly moved from an idea into real thing with value. On 2013, things started getting interesting. Bitcoin reached about $1,000 $BTC and suddenly other people apart from those tech guys who were mining it and using it to buy commodits randomly at the beginning start to paying attention. Let me say somethiung here. The term Volatility was seen and experienced during this phase of adoption, The BITCOIN Price went up and down several times that some were even afradi to enter. Exchanges started popping up, and Bitcoin was no longer just an experiment. It was becoming a thing.

In 2017, a year many people will never forget. Bitcoin exploded in value and almost reached $20,000. broacasting and media house were talking about it every single day. Some people made life changing money, others bought at the top and learned painful lessons. After that bull run, 2018 brought a big correction. Prices dropped, hype cooled off, and many people said, “Bitcoin is dead.” But it just fall asleep. 😀😀😀😀
A suprise then came Instead of die of the #bitcoin it quietly awake. Big institutions started showing interest. Financial products related to Bitcoin appeared and in 2021, Bitcoin hit around $69,000, proving again that it wasn’t just luck. It had survived multiple crashes, bans for some countries, and a lot of criticism.
Follwing the years 2025 2025, Bitcoin reached a new all time high of around $126,000, showing how far it had come. And now in 2026, Bitcoin is trading roughly between $72,000and $78,000 and this subjected to fall more as it is more volatile esp[ecially during these two months January and February. The live price of Bitcoin is $73,315.62 per $BTC / $USDT ) with a current market cap of $1,465.11B USD. 24-hour trading volume is $71.44B USD. BTC to USD price is updated in real-time. Bitcoin is -4.44% in the last 24 hours with a circulating supply of 19.98M.
In todays World Bitcoin is no longer just “internet money.” It’s seen as a global asset the store of value, the hedge against inflation, and in some places, even legal tender. Many countries Governments debate it, institutions hold it, and millions of ordinary people around the world use and invest in it.
Bitcoin’s journey hasn’t been smooth, and it wil never will be. It goes up😀, it goes down to hell 😫, it scares people, and it surprises them. But one thing is clear what started as a small digital idea has grown into a powerful force in global finance.

Love it or hate it, Bitcoin changed the conversation about money forever.
