The First Bitcoin Transaction Was Sent to Hal Finney 16 Years Ago

Today marks the sixteenth anniversary of the first-ever Bitcoin transaction sent from one person to another. At the receiving end was computer scientist Hal Finney, who got the 10 Bitcoin from Satoshi Nakamoto, the network’s mysterious, pseudonymous creator.

The transaction on the now-historic date proved that Bitcoin—as a money network—did indeed work in reality and set the foundation for its future growth.
