🗓 Bitcoin: 2008 Whitepaper and 2009 Genesis Block. Why?

📉 Bitcoin was born at a time of profound global crisis: in 2008, the collapse of financial markets and banking institutions revealed the fragility of a system centered on monetary and financial authorities and triggered a widespread distrust of traditional economic policies.

💻 Bitcoin fits into this context of economic and social instability as an innovative response: an open-source computer protocol, based on cryptography and distributed consensus, that eliminates the need for intermediaries and offers an autonomous alternative to the centralized control of monetary resources.

📈 Bitcoin was born with the intention of creating a secure, transparent and independent medium of exchange capable of overcoming the limitations and risks highlighted by the global financial crisis.

📶 Stay tuned.
