Bitcoin emerged from cypherpunk ideals in 2008, promising financial sovereignty. Satoshi Nakamoto’s white‑paper launched a decentralized ledger. By 2010, the first real‑world purchase—two pizzas—proved its value. Early adopters on forums and the dark web spread the code, while Mt. Gox turned mining into a market. The 2013 price surge drew Wall Street’s attention. Today, institutional funds trade billions, but privacy and decentralization remain Bitcoin’s core.
