Money talks. Yeah but where and when it was created firstly?
People were exchanging their goods thousands years ago until the 7th century BC. One day one of the ancient civilization did a revolution. Lydians. They invented the coins…

Herodotus says “Lydians were the first men who coined gold and silver currency” in his The Histories book.

Do you know where the Lydians used to live? let me say... In Turkey.

First you heard about bitcoin from somewhere but you didn’t pay attention and walked away. Then you heard about it’s value and you didn’t care again because there was a lot of things to do in your life. But even teenagers who were spending whole life in front of a computer heard it and bought it.

Now they’re rich more than you can imagine. That’s pissed us off all. We thought we already missed the train until we heard about great increasing of it recently and we too said ourselves “I’m in!” but there was no money! You spent a lot of money for yourself, bought a car, went a trip and so on things… but the FOMO which stands “fearing of missing out” alarmed us to get into it. You invested as much as money you find. Ok now relax. Hope you and me and others who take risks don’t disappoint...

Actually the most important thing about bitcoin is blockchain technology. We have a new thing! Yes it’s new for us. For ordinary people. There were a lot of thesis about digital money or computer science back in the kitchen. But no one used the right ingredients to make the meal not until the Satoshi Nakamoto did. The blockchain life is spreading out so rapidly that we entered the new era which will be written by historians years later. Now we’re in steemit platform which is designed by blockchain technology. We’re about to use it in every part of our lives. This is great awesome thing!

The Lydians made a great invention and big step for humanity. From that times to now, emperors conquered empires, people had great wars and civilizations were built and demolished. But again humanity made a great invention by announcing blockchain technology. Like Neil Armstrong said “that’s one small step for man one giant leap for mankind” while he was putting his left foot firstly on the moon.
