Did you know? The very first Bitcoin block, mined in January 2009, has a newspaper headline permanently written inside it: "Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks."
It's still there today, on every copy of the blockchain, checkable by anyone. A timestamp, and a reminder of the world Bitcoin was built as an answer to: money that no one can quietly print more of.
That chain is still growing, block by block, and you can be part of it. Start mining with Bitcoinist. 🟠
