Title: [2016-09-01] The 5 Greatest Moments in Bitcoin History Post by: elyas772 on September 01, 2016, 03:23:21 PM Bitcoin is now seven and a half years old, or almost eight, depending on where you believe Bitcoin began - the concept's fertilization as a White Paper, or its actual open-source birth and first public transactions. Over that time, life has never been boring for young Bitcoin, with the digital currency becoming extremely popular throughout the criminal and online underworld, as well as the more tech-savvy and economically progressive among us.
Today, we’ll review the top five moments in Bitcoin’s rather spectacular history. Not the five best moments, nor the five worst, but the five greatest moments in Bitcoin history that have left a mark, not just on the Bitcoin community but on the world, starting with number five. https://cointelegraph.com/news/the-5-greatest-moments-in-bitcoin-history Title: Re: [2016-09-01] The 5 Greatest Moments in Bitcoin History Post by: Coin-Keeper on September 01, 2016, 07:02:32 PM I enjoyed that read. I remember every one of those events. I didn't get involved until 2011 but those are significant BTC "markers".

The heading in bold above that says October 31, 2008 so not sure how 2013 crept in there just two sentences later. I got into bitcoin around October 2013, pretty sure the whitepaper had been around for a while before then. :D Title: Re: [2016-09-01] The 5 Greatest Moments in Bitcoin History Post by: AmDD on September 01, 2016, 08:08:44 PM Good read.
