When BIG BAD BITCOIN was just a baby bitcoin..

We all know that BITCOIN is a BIG BAD "BABY-DADDY"..
NOW Responsible for Baby Bitcoin all over the UNIVERSE.
(I'm sure space is involved in this somehow, aren't you?)

Let's look back at a couple of my favorite baby bitcoin pictures:

Baby Bitcoin is Born:
January 12, 2009: first Bitcoin transaction

Baby Bitcoin gets Rich:
November 6, 2010: Bitcoin economy passed $1 million

Baby Bitcoin Hits $1.00 USD - February 9, 2011.
Aww, just 2 years old. How sweeeet. Terrible twos!

Baby Bitcoin has it's first "real" TV debut:

When Baby Bitcoin was only @$3.00:
"The Good Wife" Aired "Bitcoin for Dummies" as TV Episode on December 19, 2011
and January 15, 2012

A STAR WAS IN THE MAKING, EVEN THEN!
BUT, as we know, it takes a LONG time to get noticed, even when you ARE BORN to be a STAR:

About 9.45 million viewers tuned in to watch Baby Bitcoin on "Bitcoin for Dummies" ~ the story involves a government manhunt for the creator of Bitcoin, who is charged with creating a currency in competition with the U.S. Dollar.

(Me, no likey that story line. I'm guessing that's why baby bitcoin didn't get its proper recognition. My baby bitcoin was absolutely AMAZING on camera! I'm sure its the next Pacino!)

Despite the MASSIVE exposure, prices remained stagnant following the show's airing.

Baby Bitcoin was @$3.41 during the Episode and Baby Bitcoin, after 10 days was only @$4.22
Didn't they do this SAME thing to Michael Jordan?! They always miss the good ones!
We need better SCOUTS!

Anyway.. Enjoy the awesome info graphic that shows all the steps Baby Bitcoin as taken to become the BIG BAD BITCOIN it is today!

You will always be MY baby, Bitcoin!
Through all your travels, I will be here for you and I know you will be there, somewhere, everywhere and nowhere.. for me.
