Back in 2009, a single transaction marked the turning point—the moment when a new chapter in finance began to unfold. What started as a peer-to-peer exchange would eventually reshape how we think about money, trust, and decentralized systems. That one simple transaction wasn't just code executing on a network; it was the spark that ignited an entire ecosystem. Today, over a decade later, we're still witnessing the ripple effects of that foundational moment, as blockchain technology continues to evolve and redefine financial infrastructure globally.
