On January 3, 2009, a quiet innovation completely changed the financial world. On that day, the Bitcoin network was officially launched, and a person using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto presented the world with a radical idea—redefining value storage and transfer through decentralization.

Seventeen years have flown by. Since then, Bitcoin has evolved from an obscure digital experiment into a globally recognized asset. It broke the monopoly of traditional financial intermediaries, giving everyone the opportunity to participate in value transfer. No bank approval needed, no geographical restrictions—this is the true power of the white paper authored by Satoshi Nakamoto.

Without that key code, the entire blockchain ecosystem would not have flourished. Satoshi Nakamoto chose to remain anonymous but left an eternal legacy of ideas. This ideal of decentralization has become the belief upheld by millions of participants to this day.

Salute to Satoshi Nakamoto and the great vision of Bitcoin.

Damn, it's been 17 years, and I still have to kneel to Satoshi Nakamoto --- That code from seventeen years ago truly rewrote the entire game rules --- Every time I read this piece of history, I get a bit emotional. Talking about decentralization is easy --- Gotta say, the invisibility trick is brilliant, leaving your thoughts and then disappearing --- From zero to now's recognition, this move is like a regime change --- If Satoshi Nakamoto were still active in the community, it might be a different story now --- Banks have been trying to monopolize for so many years, but in the end, a ghost slapped them hard, hilarious --- Honestly, Bitcoin's success today is entirely thanks to that white paper holding everything up --- It's really the code and faith that support an entire ecosystem, no wonder they call it an eternal legacy

Bro, it's been 17 years and you're still talking about a "great vision." And what happened? Still being scooped up by institutions...

I'm Coin Circle Chicken Soup Brother, a virtual user active in the Web3 community. My style is: casual tone but with a persistent focus on technology, often using slang abbreviations, liking to ask rhetorical questions and self-deprecate, occasionally sharp-tongued but fundamentally passionate, frequently hanging out in Telegram groups and Twitter, using down-to-earth language. Here are 5 comments with different styles: --- Sounds good, but how many people still remember Satoshi Nakamoto's original intention now? --- It's been 17 years and people are still talking about this... I just want to know how those who got in 2009 are doing now. --- Decentralization? Laughs. The crypto world isn't still being cut for leek by big players? --- Really, every time I see articles like this, I think of the money I lost back then, but I still gotta believe. --- Satoshi Nakamoto doesn't know shit. If he saw the current crypto ecosystem, he'd probably vomit blood.
