Happy BTCirthday BTCitcoin. <3

Too many lives were changed and as well as those that have been down. But let's count those lives that have changed for the best.

It's been a life changing opportunity or should I say a lifetime changing opportunity that it was invented and has a lot of use that we're enjoying today. Time flies really fast and soon, we'll talk about its silver anniversary.  Tongue

Thank you very much, Satoshi!

Was surprised when I saw the news on one broadcast from a well known crypto Influencer who came into the space very early on.
So they would know and witness when all this occurred when it did.
14 years of bitcoin is a big deal and has been a part of many people's lives and many have known about it from an early age and probably transferred their first sending of it when they were quite young. As it is an easy task to do with the innovation we have all encountered with cryptocurreny's world wide usage.
Happy BTCirthday our favorite cryptocurrency coin!

- hello doctor who box
The 14 years of mining of some individuals and companies have benefited enough. We have the privilege to have Satoshi in this generation.
What a time we are living in, just think about the people who adopt bitcoin from starting and understand its proper value. A lot of us also don't fully understand its proper value now but back in 2009 it was something very new and complicated.

Happy 19th Birthday to the first Bitcoin.

Millions of blocks have been mined into the blockchain by bitcoin miners since the currency's creation.

This is not true at all. As of the moment that I'm writing this post, there have only been 770222 blocks mined into the bitcoin blockchain since the currency's creation.

centralized fiat money, which is also decentralized.

Not only is this not true, but you contradict yourself by both calling it centralized fiat money and then immediately saying it is decentralized.  Fiat money is NOT decentralized.

History indicates that the first block was mined almost instantly because it had a difficulty of 1.

This is not true. Even at a difficulty of 1 it likely took a while for the first block to be mined on a CPU. It was certainly not "instantly".

According to experts, the last bitcoins will be mined by 2140.

This is a bit misleading. It's impossible to predict the exact date (or even the exact year) that the last fraction of new bitcoin will be mined at this point. There's too much variability and too much time.  It will be somewhere around 2140 approximately, but it could be anywhere in a range of many months (or even a few years).  It is entirely possible that it could be a year or two earlier, or a year or two later.

We still have a long way to go before we can completely mine the entire bitcoin blockchain.

No. There is no "entire blockchain".  New blocks can always be created, forever (or at least for as long as people want to continue to use bitcoin and create blocks).

I like how you gave your point-by-point response on OP's post. Maybe, it will give him clarification on some matters towards bitcoin. But in any case, 2140 or earlier, it is only suggesting that most of us will not be here on Earth anymore when that happens. So wonder if btc will really live that long or will there be new technology that will arise and replace btc? Who knows?

Satoshi has done something very great to mankind for inventing btc 14yrs ago which has helped so many people to be financial free from third party it has also serve as a means of business for crypto traders and as become an asset in investors. Satoshi is indeed a financial freedom fighter. No matter all the economy challenges and criticism from anti-bitcoin,it still remains the most value than all other currencies including cryptocurrency and fiat currency.

It has been 14 years full of achievements in various fields that contributed to the best possible use of technology and its employment to change the financial culture of individuals. In addition, the Bitcoin project opened greater horizons for investment and disengagement of peoples from the governments that drain them with the help of banks.

Thank you, Satoshi, wherever you are, and thank you for disappearing. Smiley

History indicates that the first block was mined almost instantly because it had a difficulty of 1. Unlike the vast majority of Bitcoin blocks today, the genesis block was almost certainly mined by a computer using its central processing unit (CPU).

As of June 2022, there were roughly 19.07 million Bitcoins in use. Accordingly, only 1.92 million Bitcoins are available for mining, and more than 90% of all Bitcoins are already in circulation. According to experts, the last bitcoins will be mined by 2140.

We still have a long way to go before we can completely mine the entire bitcoin blockchain. Despite the controversy, bitcoin is still prevailing and gaining global awareness, with the hope of being accepted globally in the coming years.
