Seventeen years have passed since that groundbreaking moment. Hal Finney, one of Bitcoin's earliest pioneers and visionary cryptographers, posted the very first tweet acknowledging Bitcoin—a watershed moment in cryptocurrency history. That single message marked the beginning of public discourse around Satoshi Nakamoto's revolutionary creation. Finney's early adoption and technical contributions helped shape the Bitcoin ecosystem during its nascent stages. Today, we honor his legacy and the remarkable vision that helped launch the world's first decentralized digital currency into the mainstream consciousness.
