On this day in 2011 — February 9th to be precise — Bitcoin crossed $1 for the first time, achieving parity with the US dollar after years of trading in fractions of a cent.
From that humble milestone on obscure forums and early exchanges like Mt. Gox, a digital experiment born in 2009 began its improbable ascent.
Skeptics dismissed it, regulators ignored it, and most laughed — yet here we are, with BTC having delivered life-changing returns for early believers.
Volatility, crashes, bans, and bubbles later, Bitcoin has rewritten money's rules.
