0.000 HBD10th YEAR BITCOIN ANNIVERSARY with READY SET CRYPTO
 | Did you know that today marks the date of the birth of the Bitcoin network? It was apparently 10 years ago on the 3rd of January 2009 that the world witnessed the first Bitcoin ever. ---|--- <div class="text-justify"> ## INTRODUCTION   | Several weeks after that iconic date, the white paper was publicly published by Satoshi Nakamoto. Did you guys ever know about those dates? I myself just found out and it made me stop for a moment and think about the past of this technology. ---|--- So, today instead of looking into the future and trying to figure out how the crypto market and blockchain technology will progress in 2019, let's all stop for a moment and reflect on it's past. ## BITCOIN = MONETARY INDEPENDENCE ?  Bitcoinmagazine.com wrote about this event: > Ten years later, we celebrate the birth of the Bitcoin network much like we might a nation. If the white paper is a declaration of monetary independence, then the genesis block is our independence day and the founding of a new system. Personally, I'm not sure what to think when I read - "our monetary independance" and my guess is, that not many of us feels independent at all. Those 10 years was a very bumpy road, with many ups and downs. With markets going crazy in both ways. A long road that brought huge hopes, dreams and sometimes dissapointments. So, bumpy like hell for sure. And with a decade worth of hard work done by these creators, I still have to admit that I sometimes feel clueless amongst it all. Even today, such a mystery surrounds the very first bitcoin, it's whitepaper and those who started it all. Example; can anyone even say for sure if this "Satoshi Nakamoto" person even truly exists? Because according to several sources, it's just a name used by a person or several people (a team perhaps) to develop Bitcoin. ## FIRTST IMPRESSION   | To tell you the truth, I cannot consider myself a veteran in this space. My interests towards crypto developed quite slowly sometime in the middle of 2017, when mass media brought more attention to bitcoin and every channel talked about it. ---|--- What was my first impression? Naturally as many others, I believed that it was a scam, ponzi scheme, financial pyramid etc. I wonder how many of you had a similar first impression? How many started the way I did - with huge level of distrust towards this phenomenon. However, I'm glad to say that it slowly turned into fascination towards blockchain technology and crypto-space. ## HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN INVOLVED?  I would really love to know if there is anyone reading my post, who would be involved in crypto before 2017? Perhaps you could share your story with us and tell us more about those days? What was the public awareness at that time, how easy or difficult was it to purchase your first piece of Bitcoin? Did anyone experienced previous crashes? Perhaps someone here has been involved in crypto during the early 2017 crash (or earlier ones) and could you also tell us what caused it at that time? How people reacted? Looking at graphs and seeing how fast the market bounced back, made me believe that euphoria had been really high and bitcoin never reached a stage of "capitulation". A stage which we seem to be experiencing right now in the late 2018. ## BIRTH OF FIRST ALTCOINS   | When I joined this market (unfortunatelly like many others, at the end of 2017) there has been already hundreds of altcoins and many more were about to come. People like me got used to seeing tons of different projects, not just Bitcoin. For us it is not unusual at all to witness the birth of new altcoin so very often. ---|--- I wonder what were people's first impressions were when the first alt has been introduced? And was it Ethereum? Was the general public excited about first alts or suspisious towards their future? Those are the sort of questions that I've been thinking about for quite some time now. And today is great time to ask. After all how often can we celebrate 10th anniversary of Bitcoin? ## READY? SET. CRYPTO!
