I believe it was when Sirius sold 5000 BTC for $5.

I've seen recent references to it (example), but I haven't bothered looking for a primary source or the date.

This thread may be amusing in today's context.

I routinely ignore posters with paid advertising in their sigs.  You should too.

There's the following: "October 5, 2009:    Exchange rates published by New Liberty Standard. $1 = 1,309.03 BTC (and theymos thought NLS was overcharging[3])"
From: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/History
Bitcoin is the first monetary system to credibly offer perfect information to all economic participants.
