Seventeen years ago, cryptographer Hal Finney posted the first known tweet about Bitcoin, simply saying “Running Bitcoin,” signaling that he had downloaded and run the new software. He was likely the first person outside Satoshi Nakamoto to operate the Bitcoin client. The next day, Satoshi sent him the first transaction of ten BTC, proving the network worked. Despite being diagnosed with ALS in 2009, Finney continued testing the software and reporting bugs until his death in 2014. His early work and dedication are now recognized as foundational to Bitcoin’s growth and success.
