Do you remember? On this day 17 years ago, Bitcoin completed its most historic transaction. Satoshi Nakamoto transferred 10 bitcoins to Hal Finney, which was not just a transfer of two numbers, but the beginning of a revolution.
The significance of this transaction is profound. It validated the feasibility of the entire network, proving that the peer-to-peer electronic cash system was no longer just a theoretical concept on paper, but a tangible reality that could operate. From that moment on, Bitcoin broke down the barriers of centralized finance and laid a solid foundation for the entire digital currency ecosystem.
Every time we see this piece of history, we are reliving the power of innovation. This moment is the purest starting point in the world of cryptocurrency.

Whoa, 10 Bitcoins, how much is it worth now... I can't even calculate
---
No one expected that this transaction could change the world back then, impressive
---
Pure nonsense, now it's all about capital and cutting leeks, stop selling sentimentalism
---
Hal Finney was truly a legend, what a pity
---
So who exactly is Satoshi Nakamoto? When will this question be answered
---
Where are those 10 Bitcoins now? Have they never been moved
---
This is real p2p, unlike now where all coins require exchanges
---
Looking at history, I feel like I came late haha, is there still a chance to get on board now
---
The beginning of a revolutionary era has now become a playground for speculation
---
Nothing worth commemorating, the key is how to move forward in the future

Wow, it's been 17 years... How much are those 10 Bitcoins worth now? Do you want to know?
Hey, Satoshi Nakamoto is really a genius. Just one transfer changed the world.
A historic moment, must remember it. If only I could travel back in time, haha.
This is truly from zero to one, way beyond those current projects.
Ten, Hal Finney probably woke up laughing, but unfortunately he's gone.
No one expected it would escalate to this back then. Amazing.

Wow, how much are those 10 Bitcoins from Satoshi Nakamoto worth now? Has anyone calculated it?
If the transaction that Hal Finney received had only been received now, it would be crazy haha.
Historical moments are historical moments. Who could have imagined it back then?
That's why Bitcoin is considered the most authentic one, the rest are all copies.
The true peer-to-peer electronic cash was born like this, but now it has become digital gold.
People back then really had incredible foresight. Who can accurately predict the next opportunity now?

Damn, it's been 17 years... How much are those 10 Bitcoins worth now? Can't even calculate
Ten years of sharpening the sword, and Satoshi Nakamoto just threw out the first one, awesome
The story starting with 10 BTC, and we're still listening
By the way, Hal Finney is also a legend, what a pity
The moment when paper turns into reality, everything that followed came after
Every time I watch this clip, I feel a bit emotional. Back then, no one believed
Actually, the first transaction was the purest, no speculation, just verification
An idea, two people, and then changed the world? Sounds almost too simple to be true

Damn, how much are those 10 Bitcoins from Hal Finney worth now... Just thinking about it breaks my mindset
Back then, Satoshi really was a madman, daring to verify directly on the blockchain, awesome
Revolution? Nice words, but now a bunch of people are still losing money...
Yeah, that's it. History is history, anyway I missed out
Wait, can this transaction really be traced? Curious
If I had known earlier, I would have gone all in 17 years ago, but unfortunately I was still playing with mud back then
What’s Satoshi doing now? Truly mysterious
Peer-to-peer electronic cash still sounds so smooth
This nostalgic review is a bit emotional, but I like it
Every time I watch this clip, I feel a bit sentimental. Unfortunately, no one believed back then

Laughing and then crying, 10 Bitcoins from 17 years ago can now buy half a neighborhood. Satoshi Nakamoto's move is arguably the funniest joke-teller in the crypto world.
