The genesis block contains a newspaper headline about bank bailouts. Your wallet contains regret.Satoshi Nakamoto (not really)
Block zero: a permanent critique of the financial system. Your wallet: a permanent critique of your impulse control.
The Real Bitcoin Concept
The Genesis Block
Block 0 — the Genesis Block — was mined by Satoshi Nakamoto on January 3, 2009. Embedded in its coinbase transaction is the text: "The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks." This headline from The Times of London served as both a timestamp and a statement of purpose: Bitcoin was born as a response to the failures of the traditional banking system.
