Bitcoin white paper turns 17 as first red October in 7 years looms for BTC
Summary
The Bitcoin white paper, titled “Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System,” authored by Satoshi Nakamoto, marks its 17th anniversary, having been published on October 31, 2008, in response to the global financial crisis. In the 17 years since, Bitcoin has evolved from a niche experiment into a $2 trillion global asset, ranking as the world’s eighth-most-valuable asset. Despite this milestone, Bitcoin is poised to record its first monthly loss for October in seven years, having fallen over 3.5% this month, breaking a six-year streak of positive "Uptober" performances. The last time BTC logged a monthly loss in October was in 2018.
