Happy 16th Birthday Bitcoin!On January 3rd, 2009, Bitcoin's genesis block was mined by the mysterious, and unknown, Satoshi Nakamoto. That very first block, block #0, carried with it a reward of 50 Bitcoin; an imaginable sum today. While our challenge reward pales in comparison to that; who knows what value 1,000 Sats may be worth in another 16 years!
Today we honour that historic milestone with our launch challenge. Just as Bitcoin is available to everyone, everywhere, so is our first ever challenge. All you need is a Bitcoin address (on-chain or lightning) and your guess as to our challenge question below by 7pm Eastern Time on January 2rd, 2025.
We'll select the winner based on the price of Bitcoin per Investing.com's hourly chart. Learn more in our FAQs.
Bitcoin's price, according to the hourly chart @ investing.com was:
US$98,167.5
