This episode, I have a very exclusive story from Tokyo, Japan.
On October 31, 2008, Satoshi Nakamoto, the anonymous founder of Bitcoin, first published Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System (the Bitcoin white paper). Seventeen years later, Bitcoin has become a mainstream financial asset. However, what is less well known is that "blockchain" was not Nakamoto's original term. In the initial code and concepts, he used "Time Chain" to describe the technology. A time chain is a distributed ledger linked together in chronological order using cryptographic technology, serving as the precursor to today’s blockchain. Nakamoto described Bitcoin as a time-stamped ledger of truth. (Source: Truth for

To celebrate the 17th anniversary of the Bitcoin white paper’s publication, the Tokyo Bitcoin Base held a special event. Through group activities, the event revealed many fascinating historical connections between Japan and Bitcoin (BTC), as well as lesser-known historical fragments.
