Bitcoin started as a cypherpunk manifesto in 2008, a vision of a permissionless, censorship‑resistant money. Satoshi’s whitepaper sparked a quiet underground experiment, then a hacktivist community of early adopters. By 2013, it caught institutional attention, trading on futures, ETFs, and mainstream media, turning a fringe idea into a Wall Street asset. The journey from code to capital shows how a radical concept can reshape finance.
