Written by: global-finances.ru

Bitcoin is the first, most popular and most valuable cryptocurrency in the world.

It was born in 2008, and since then has grown significantly in price, while demonstrating high volatility.

How have BTC quotes changed over the past years?

We offer a retrospective – the Bitcoin exchange rate to the US dollar for all time.

2008

August 15 - Three cryptography experts (Neil King, Vladimir Oksman and Charles Bry) filed a patent application for encryption technology close to Bitcoin.

August 18 – the domain Bitcoin.org was registered.

October 31 is the official date of birth of the cryptocurrency.

On this day, a person (or group of people) under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto published a report “Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System,” a file describing the protocol and operating principle of the new EPS.

In October, the first transaction was carried out between Satoshi Nakamoto and Hal Finley.

year 2009

January 3 – the first block was generated, the first 50 bitcoins were born.

October 9 – the new cryptocurrency received its exchange rate relative to other currencies for the first time.

The New Liberty Standard online service estimated the cost of BTC at 1309 “coins” per 1 US dollar (or 0.0007 USD).

2010

On February 6, the first exchange was launched - Bitcoin Market, where it was possible to buy or sell digital currency.

May 22 – the first online purchase using cryptocurrency was made.

Florida programmer Laszlo Heinitz paid 10,000 bitcoins for the pizza, which at that time was approximately 25 USD.

At today's exchange rate, that's several million dollars.

In July, the price of BTC showed rapid growth, reaching 0.08 per “coin”.

In November, quotes settled at 0.5 USD per 1 Bitcoin.

2011

Bitcoin has become publicly available.

With its help it was already possible to pay for a wide range of goods and services.

February 9 – Bitcoin reached a psychologically important point – parity with the US dollar (1 BTC = 1 USD).

And in June, the milestone of $10 per “coin” was passed.

Moreover, in the first ten days of the month, the BTC rate soared to 31.91 USD.

But already on June 12, quotes collapsed to the previous 10.00.

year 2012

The Bitcoin rate did not make any sudden movements and grew gradually:

Confirmed and unconfirmed transactions

After the transaction is initiated, data about it is sent to the blockchain and awaits confirmation from the miners. If an operation does not receive a place in the block, it is considered an unconfirmed Bitcoin transaction, or in other words, it ends up in a queue. This affects the transaction time.

The confirmation time for a Bitcoin transfer depends on network congestion, transaction volume, and payment priority. The parties to the transaction can influence the latter factor by setting the size of the commission.

A commission is paid to confirm coin transfers. Previously, the commission amount was set automatically. However, with the growing popularity of BTC, and, accordingly, competition for a place in the block, traders themselves began to determine the commission in order to manipulate the demand for confirmation of their transactions among miners.

Russians are wondering whether it is worth buying Bitcoin or not

Japanese crypto exchange Coincheck has opened an over-the-counter Bitcoin trading platform aimed at institutional investors.

Thanks to the Coincheck OTC platform, clients will be able to directly exchange bitcoins among themselves using the exchange’s web interface from fifty BTC.

The famous developer Luke Dashjr, in his humorous post on April 1, proposed changes to the Bitcoin code that would allow setting the minimum price of the cryptocurrency for transactions at fifty thousand dollars.

According to Luke Dashjr, starting from block 622370, which will approximately be released on April 1 of next year, blocks whose transaction price of Bitcoin will be below fifty thousand dollars will not be accepted by the network.

In the meantime, Bitcoin is growing, many investors are confident that this is due to past surges in volatility. Experts note that at this time the technical indicator is screaming about buying after the last signal.

How to check the hash of a transaction? How to view the hash of a transaction on Blockchain?

The transfer ID can be found in the Blockchain service - https://www.blockchain.com/explorer. Visit the website and go to the “Explore” section.

On the page that opens, enter your wallet address in the search bar. A window will open where all the latest transactions at the specified address will be visible.

A suitable transfer can be found using the built-in search in the browser, specifying the exact amount of the transfer. Command: CTRL/Command + F.

The TXID of the operation will appear in a gray box. Click on it and a page with details about the deal will open.

Where else can I look at the transaction hash?

The transaction hash address can be found in the transactions history section of the service (wallet, exchange platform, etc.) you used. If you cannot find your hash in your history, we recommend that you contact the service's support team and ask them for help.

Information about network nodes

Node Counter

Node Counter is an analytical website that tracks nodes on the Bitcoin network. Here are graphical representations of the Bitcoin Core, Classic and Unlimited (BU) nodes. Each table shows different network nodes, as well as pools that have reported support for alternative Bitcoin clients and block size proposals. Information on Nodecounter is presented in the form of line graphs and pie charts.

Bitnodes

Founded by startup 21 Inc, Bitnodes is also often used to study various graphs and tables that display the behavior of Bitcoin network nodes. The site provides a snapshot of the network, as well as a search tool for checking the status of nodes. Bitnodes displays nodes by Bitcoin Core, Classic, and Unlimited (BU) clients.

Coin Dance

Another very useful tool is called CoinDance. It shows users various analyzes and graphs related to nodes in the network. The graphical interface also contains implementations of different nodes with different types of graphs. CoinDance is also popular due to other data presented, such as trading volume on Localbitcoins and Paxful, or even charts reflecting the opinions of well-known companies in the industry regarding the support of Segregated Witness, Emergent Consensus and UASF (BIP 148).

What is a Bitcoin transaction hash?

Tx Hash - stands for transaction hash and is also known as transaction identifier (TxID). It consists of alphanumeric characters and is the identification number assigned to a Bitcoin transaction. Every transaction that takes place on the Bitcoin blockchain has this unique identifier. And similarly, transactions on the Ethereum blockchain have a unique Tx hash.

For example, a Bitcoin transaction identifier looks like this:

a1062db53e416d8fa109f23b7094a21e5b2645e16c5cf532fc90e4d8fbf5d48d

The Ethereum transaction hash looks like this:

0xb4bc293478d3ф82a652a8d90a6bfd8ec0ba1a63923bbb4f88147fb8a943da26d

All transactions on the blockchain are publicly available. Once you make a payment or transfer coins to another address, the transaction will be recorded and a Tx Hash ID will also be generated.

Using the ID, you can easily track the status of the transaction. This way, it’s easy to find out all the details of the transfer: sender’s address, recipient’s address, total amount sent, date of transfer, block height, commissions paid and number of confirmations.

IDs do not contain personal information, so they are safe to share.

What are the benefits of Tx Hash?

For example, you can share information with your service provider so they know the status of the transfer. Or provide the transaction ID to the seller to confirm the success of the coin transfer, and so on.

How to find out the hash of a transaction?

There are several ways to check the hash of a Bitcoin transaction. Let's look at them.
