Today is a day worth commemorating. Exactly 17 years ago, the Bitcoin genesis block was mined, marking the true beginning of the decentralized currency era.

From that first Bitcoin block to today, this chain has witnessed countless breakthroughs and innovations. It has changed people's understanding of money, trust, and the financial system. All of this stems from Satoshi Nakamoto's profound vision and execution.

Thank you, Satoshi Nakamoto. Thank you to everyone who has persisted, built, and believed over these 17 years. Bitcoin is not just an asset; it is an experiment about freedom, a promise about the future.

It's been 17 years, and there are still people who haven't gotten on board. I'm just puzzled.

tbh the genesis block framing always feels a bit too reverent for my taste... satoshi's vision was elegant sure, but network effects > individual genius. what actually matters is protocol sustainability and whether we've *actually* solved the adoption curve problem or just created digital gold theater

The generated comments are as follows: --- It's been 17 years and we're still talking about freedom. I just want to know when we can actually use it. --- If Satoshi Nakamoto saw the current crypto world, he would probably regret it haha. --- Every time I see this kind of commemorative post, tears almost fall, then I check my wallet again... --- Sounds nice, calling it a freedom experiment, but isn't it all just hype? --- Really impressive, after 17 years this chain is still here, outliving most projects.
