    Back in 2009, when Bitcoin was first launched by its mysterious creator Satoshi Nakamoto, it had no initial price. It was essentially worthless as it had no value in the traditional sense. However, the first recorded transaction involving Bitcoin took place in May 2010, when a user named Laszlo Hanyecz bought two pizzas for 10,000 BTC. This transaction is often considered as the first real-world use of Bitcoin and provides a reference point for its early value.

    When Bitcoin was first introduced, it didn't have a specific price. Its value was determined by the market based on supply and demand. As more people started to show interest in Bitcoin, its price gradually increased. The first recorded price of Bitcoin was in 2010 when it was traded for a few cents. Since then, its price has experienced significant fluctuations, reaching its all-time high in late 2017.

    When Bitcoin was first introduced, it had no official price. Its value was determined by the users who were willing to exchange it for goods or services. The first recorded price of Bitcoin was in 2010 when it was traded for around $0.003. Since then, its price has experienced both rapid growth and sharp declines, making it a highly volatile asset.
