Bitcoin began as a cryptographer's manifesto in 2008, a response to 2008 crisis, rooted in cypherpunks' ideals of privacy and decentralization. Satoshi's whitepaper introduced a trust‑less ledger that grew into a global experiment. Over the past decade, it moved from underground forums to institutional custody, and now trades on Wall Street exchanges, yet remains a decentralized asset defying traditional finance.
