Bitcoin's story began in 2008 when an anonymous cypherpunk published a white‑paper promising a peer‑to‑peer cash system. Early adopters mined, built wallets, and created a community of skeptics. By 2014, the first institutional investors and exchanges appeared, turning Bitcoin into a market asset. Today Wall Street treats it as digital gold, yet the original cypherpunk ethos of decentralization remains its core.
