Binance Marks 16 Years Since Satoshi Registered on BitcoinTalk
Binance is spotlighting a small but symbolic moment in Bitcoin’s early history: 16 years ago this month, in November 2009, the pseudonymous creator Satoshi Nakamoto registered on the BitcoinTalk forum. The exchange described that registration as the beginning of a community-driven journey that would go on to challenge and reshape aspects of global finance.
The anniversary matters beyond nostalgia. Forum registration marks one of the earliest public touchpoints where ideas, code and debate coalesced around Bitcoin, laying groundwork for developer collaboration, miner coordination and broader adoption. By drawing attention to the date, Binance underscores how the project’s grassroots origins continue to inform conversations about decentralization, governance and the industry’s long-term resilience.
